strength today. Elimination of Con.
gress as market factor, through it's

Petroleum shares formed practi-
cally the only group which was very
slow In responding to the general
feeling Of bullishness. In fact, not
a little bit of pressure was noted fol.
lowing a, firm opening causing ir-
regularity in a good many Standard

Vigorous Forward Drive and
6uoyant Tone Features
Early Trading
By HI. j. DUIZEND,
international News Service,

NEW YORK, June Avail
Street manifested it's satisfaction
over Congress- decision to adjourn
Saturday in a vigorous bullish
demonstration in the forenoon trad
ing on the stock exchange today.
The ability OF the market to carry
through convincingly the buoyant
tone evident at yesterdays close
excited much favorable comment,
the opinion gaining ground that
with Congress out of the way, the
passing Of the conventions only a
question Of a couple of weeks and
business conditions more stabilized,
p gradual upward movement in
stock prices might develop.
Although opinions were still at
variance as to the immediate fu-
ture OF trade and industry, indi.
cations have not been lacking re.
Gently that the price decline that
set in about three months ago has
run its course in a great many
commodities.
Statements issued by various
prominent Industrial leaders also
testified to the belief that the bust.
ness reaction had reached bottom
and that improvement might soon
be witnessed.
Nearly all classes Of stocks par
ticipated in the forward movement.
but the greatest strength was
shown in the railroad list. Both
dividend paying and minor rails
were actively bought, the former
led by Southern Railway which
moved into new high ground at 81,
and the latter by Missouri Pacific
preferred which went to a new
nigh Tor the year at 43h. Erie also
displayed great buoyancy.
The process Of marking up pubic
utility shares continued with un.
abated vtgor. American Water
Works ran up six points immedi-
ately after the opening, rounded
an advance of 16 points in two
days.
Retirement of short contracts was
again the impelling force behind the
advance in the industrial group, al.
though in the seasoned dividend is-
sues a certain amount of invest
ment buying was executed. Pool
operations were responsible for the
advance in such specjalties as In
ternational Paper, Famous Players
and American Radiator. Petroleum
stocks, however, were not quite as
strong as other commodity shares.
In fact, good bit of selling was
encountered on the initial advance.
Rumors were circulated that large
companies operating in the mid
continent field would announce a
price reduction in crude within the
next two weeks.
Call money renewed at per
