Impressive recoveries took place
throughout today's stock market
after one week of steadily declining
prices. Scores of issues rallied 5
to nearly 25 points on buying orders
supplied by powerful financial in
terests, hundreds of small investors
attracted by the high yields obtain-
able in many issues and, lastly, by
the short covering operations of bear
traders who had overstayed t.-eir
market.
The market was strong from the
outset indicating that forced liquida-
tion apparently had run its course
yesterday, and that fresh buying
power was being supplied in large
volume
Brokers no longer witnessed the
spectacle of large blocks of stock
being dumped overheard in seeming
disregard of bids, but instead there

RALLY AGAIN
AFTER SLUMP
fBv Dispatch A. p. Wire)


NEW YORK, March 4-The swollen
streams of liquidation which have
been pouring into the New York
stock exchange for a week dried up
overnight and a sensational rally of
5 to 25 points took place today in
scores of issues when strong finan-
cial interests stepped forward and
began rebuilding the shattered mar
ket structure.
Judged by the averages, the res
covery was even more extensive than
any single days reaction which had
preceded it. The average of 20 lead
ing industrial issues showed a net
gain of $50 points on the day, or
more than the combined net losses
of PAP points on Wednesday and 800
points on Tuesday, when the selling
movement. was in full swing. The
average of 20 leading railroad issues
recorded net gain of 3.61 points,
as against a loss of 2.99 points yes
terday.
The buying movement, fbeing un-
der control of cool headed financiers
was more orderly than the reckless
selling of distressed pools and small
traders which preceded it, with the
result that trading was in substan-
TALLY reduced volume. Total sales
today as compiled by Associated
Press tabulators were 2,626,4OO
shares, as compared with 3,785, 700 i'll
yesterdays record breaking session.
Prices bounded upward 1 to 5
points within the first few minutes
of trading.
AS the session wore on, word was
flashed to all corners of the country
and to European capitals that the,
break was over at least temporarily,
and that sharp upward movement
was in progress.
A canvass of some of the leading
wire and commission houses showed
that both the so-called big and little
fellows had been hard hit by the
unexpectedly severe decline. In many
cases, paper profits which had been
built up to hundreds of thousands of
dollars over a period of months,
were wiped out, or drastically re-
duced by the violent drop in prices.
The upward movement gathered mo-
mentum as the session progressed,
eliminating in whirlwind rally
which sent over extended shorts
scurrying to cover.
Fewer than half dozen active is
sues closed lower on the day, while
more than SO showed net gains of
to 12A points and more than 200
closed 2 to points higher.
Among the many groups of shares
represented on the exchange, the
oils had offered the best resistance
to selling pressure, and the rally in
some of those issues today carried
them back to within striking dis
tance of the years high level. AS
sociated and Tidewater, which are
expected to be consolidated within
the next few days were within two
points of their 1926 peaks.

followed by American Can which
climbed 21 points to 312 and then
eased to 300.

The demand for Pere Marquette,
which closed 71a points higher at

nouncement that directors would meet
for special dividend action within
the next few days.
Only a sprinkling of issues failed
to close higher on the day, among
theIm American Steel Foundry pre-
ferred, Lima Locomotive, Indian Mo-

The laborer in the vineyard.
who came at the eleventh hour
got his penny just as did the
Iaborer who had come at the first
hour and the pennies which
Uncle Sam is collecting from thou
sands Of belated income tax
payers at the Internal Revenue
Bureau at lap Pennsylvania Ave.
today, just before the limit set
by law, are, apparently, no easier
to pay than were those collected
from more fore-handed citizens
who paid up days or weeks ago.
ALI Want to Deduct
During the rush today at the Of
flee of H. Clay Powell, deputy col.
lector in charge of the Washington
office, the cry directed at all the
advisers is, chiefly: Why can't /
deduct this?' And that has been
the chief cry from the beginning.
Powell and his assistants, while
swamped with last-minute taxpayers
today, said the rush is not nearly
so great as it was last year. The
raising of the taxable limit, which
eliminated approximately $500, 600
returns all over the country, is be-
ing felt at the local office.
While the Pennsylvania Avenue
office was damned several times
during the day so that those in IL
could scarcely move, it was possible
most Of the time for Powell's crew
to keep the mill turning taxpayers
over to advisers and money into the
cash boxes without clogging.
Office To Be Open Late.
Powell opened the office at 1880
this morning, instead Of o'clock,
the usual opening hour, and there
were more than a dozen taxpayers
waiting at that time.
At noon the deputy collector said
he was prepared to keep some of
his force on until midnight tonight,
If that should prove necessary. The
law requires that all returns be
made by midnight, or that they he
in the mail by that hour.
1t is impossible to estimate the
number of returns so far made,
Powell said. Every two or three
hours during the day, a well
guarded messenger takes a load
of returns, including money, across
the street to the Treasury building,
and, until there is check of these,
officials will not know how many
returns have been flied.

PLEASURE.
AUTOS

Members of Congress today
were startled by charges that sup
porters of blue laws for the Dis
trict, armed with unlimited funds
and with the aid of experienced
lobbyists, are working through
every Congressional District to
force upon the National Capital
an ironclad set of blue laws Of
the utmost severity.
These charges will be brought
up when hearings on the Lark
ford blue-law bill are resumed at
1890 a. m. tomorrow before the
Judiciary subcommittee of the
House District Committee.
Charges By Adventists
The charges against the Ilue.law
lobby were presented to the District
Committee today by DR.. Charles S
Longacre, editor of the official or:
gan OF the Seventh Day Adventiste
Z NJ
DR.. Longacre. who probably will
be recalled by the committee to ex-
plain his charges, declares that the
Landlord bill is merely the opening
wedge in campaign to bar every
automobile from the District
streets on Sunday, To prevent even
the most innocent sports and
amusements. to prevent publication
of Sunday newspapers, and to rigid
ly censor daily papers and to force
the Christian religion on followers
of other faiths.
DIR. Lohgacre submitted to the
District Committee the following
statement, said to have been issued
by the Rev. Harry Il. Bowlby, ma
tional secretary of the Lords Day
Alliances:
We are well financed. Our
lobby at Washington will be an
effective and experienced one. We
shall agitate and spread propa-
ganda and cause voters to write
INCREASINGLY to their Representa-.
tives in Congress until no Repre-
sentative who cares to stay in Con-
gress will dare refuse to vote for
our measures. These were the
methods used by the Anti-Saloon
League and they were effective.
I'VE shall oppose golf, tennis
baseball, football, and other sports
even If purely amateur and void OF
financial cost to those watching or
taking part, because they set bad
examples TO children who otherwise
might be content to go to Sunday
school
I'VE shall seek to restrict the
sale of gasoline for pleasure auto
mobiles and urge other measures
that will stop Sunday automoblling
and ioy-riding. Excursion steamer
rides on Sunday will be opposed by
us on the ground that they are
unnecessary TO the moral welfare
of Christian America"
