The market situation is deevlop-
ing just about as we figured it would.
We see absolutely no reason to
change the advices published in our
prospect Of Feb. 10. at which time
we advised our readers that big in
terests were accommodating stocks
and that in our judgment it would
be WEI for smaller investors TO fol-
low this lead. We might call par
tcular attention to the remarkable
under-current of strength which has
been in evidence and which indicates
conclusively that the slight set
backs recently witnessed have been
brought about purposely to permit
real bull buying in a quiet, nom
competitive manner.
We, therefore, reiterate-buy
stocks now. Reactions will I'M
doubtedly be in evidence from time
TO time, but don't wait for them,
buy the good stocks. This market
letter is too brief TO cover all of
them. We viii only indicate what
in our judgment is outstanding
but buy. Do not permit yourself to
be aligned on the short side be-
cause the chances are overwhelming
ly in favor of the careful and Judi
cial bull.-Financial Editor.
NEW YORK-There is a good
character of odd lot buying noted in
