TODAY'S RALLY
 REMARKABLE ONE
Small Investors Aid Market in
 Staging Comeback

By the Associated Press
 New York, March 4.--Stock prices staged a remarkable recov- cry today after an uninterrupted de- cline of over week, in which scores of issues had been carried down 10 to 50 points from their high levels Of the year. The rally, which re- ceiyed it's impetus from the buying of strong financial interests, com bined with that of hundreds of small investors who were attracted by the high yields available on many issues, ran from one 10 nearly 20 points.
 Bear traders who had sold stocks short throughout the recent decline l covered freely, but were forced in many instances 10 bid high in order to cover their commitments. Amer ican Can was in the forefront of the advance. selling IS points above yesterdays low level before the end of the third hour. General Electric and Y. S. Cast Iron Pipe each re- corded overnight gains Of about fl points and United Drug, DuPont, Foundation Co.,. Commercial SoV- ents B and Woolworth sold to 2 points higher.
 High priced shares featured the forenoon bulge in prices. American Can jumped 5 points to BOG, Gen. cral Electric fl 1-2, [, S. Cast Iron Pipe II. Du Pont 8 3-t, Woolworth and Foundation 2 and United Drug 6 B.. The short interest was on the run in many stocks and there was considerable substantial buying on the belief that prices of many shares had been pressed down too 1 far in the recent fren2icd selling movement. Nickel Plate advanced ! points to l37 but afterwards re- lapsed to 130. The federal rate on call loans was unchanged at { l-2 per cent.
