FURTHER SELLING EASILY ABSORBED
 DURING MORNING

NEW YORK, March 27 - Stock prices made a sharp recovery in to- days market after five-day reac- tionary period. Further selling took place during the morning, but this was easily absorbed and prices turned upward is response to the ap- pearance of fresh buying power in some of the recent speculative fa- Vorites which, in turn, brought about extensive short covering, accelerat- ing the rise.
 While Wall street has been filled for several days with unconfirmed rumors concerning the outcome of the meeting of federal reserve governors in Washington, these reports were disregarded in professional interests in today's trading. Many market oo- servers have contended that the re- cent reaction was the natural result of an overbought condition, but the rumors undoubtedly received atten- tion from traders who ordinarily seek causes for price movements outside the market.
 Oil, steel and equipment shares took prominent part in the ecov- cry, gains of l F to nearly , points being recorded by United States Steel common, Bethlehem B, Republic ana Gulf States Stcels, Baldwin Locomo- tive.
