shakeoats Every Day.

Some traders are inclined 70 view with
satisfaction the tendency OF the market
TO react daily from high levels. That
action. they believe. eliminates large
part Of the danger OF violent break
which easily might come If the upward
trend were steady and uninterrupted. In
recent sessions such reactions have not
been big enough to interrupt the up
ward movement OF the averages at the
end of a day, except now and then. and,
therefore the market has had its
healthy shakeouts every session. its
daily advances being continued. Timid
holders OF long stocks always are selling
on Just such declines as that and the
dropping of such holdings as days pass
is not at all bad for the markets general
health. The encouragement of the short
interest offered by such daily appear
ances OF weakness also aids in strength
ening tho structure beneath the market
and IN making less likely the danger OF
a violent crash In prices.
