RY KENNETH S. VAN sTRUM.

NEW YORK, January 1.-The sud-
denness with which stock prices dropped
after the recent break surprised many,
vet the figures show that this reaction
ran true to form in at least two re-
spects. First, stocks dropped to low
point on three separate occasions. Sec
ond. they stayed at low level Tor at
least six trading days. The chart OF
the hourly fluctuations of a group OF
leading stocks since November Is shows
these facts clearly.
Triple Bottom Normal.
In the IA more significant stock
market reactions which have occurred
since 1919 the market made double
bottom four times, triple bottom was
made eight times, once the market
touched lowest prices four times and
once five times. From this 1t seems
that a triple bottom may be accepted
as the normal course for the mar Ket
to follow, and in the recent recation the
market actually did dip down TO low
point three times.
Near Lows for Six Days.
In former reactions prices have
STAYED within striking distance OF low
est levels from q minimum OF to
maximum Of 81 days. In the recent
decline prices remained around the lows
only six days, indicating that specu-
lative opinion had not been sufficiently
jolted to keep prices around the lows
for any length of time, although in
other respects the reaction was quite
a normal one.
50 Stocks Rise Over 16 Per Cent.
The recovery In stock prices which
has occurred since the reaction has
been materially assisted by sharp ad-
vances in the rubbers, radio and amuse-
ment, metals and mining, coppers, ma
chinery and other individual issues

One of the most significant facts Is
that the oils were the heaviest losers
in the reaction, and the recent threat
of overproduction in the industry has
| prevented any substantial recovery IN
| this group While many coppers also
suffered heavily in the decline, in the
recent advance they have staged good
comeback and are forging ahead under
the influence of continually improving
conditions in the industry.
Some Prosperous Groups.
Other outstanding features OF the
rise have been the tires, radio and
amusement, metals and mining, ma
chinery and electric, and few auto
accessories, utilities and building ma
terials. Explanations for these rises
are not hard to find.
The tire stocks, after undergoing
severe inventory readjustment when
crude rubber dropped early In 1928, have
been benefited by a relatively stable
price level for rubber and with an un-
precedented demand for tires, which is
still growing rapidly. Rumors Of COM

Rough with a fine good fellowship, 700.
Through every part of it Jan SlncoWlez
takes full possession of the reader. This
absorption Is due in part to the man
size of Jan himself, and In other part
to the realism of the war action. one

should, For the writer of the story Is
himself a soldier--Maj. John N: Greeiy.
Point of honor, so to speak, to keep the
military matters straight both Tor the
reader and for Jan himself. Here Is
war into a man of force and action and
influence. At every turn the writer
minds his purpose to such good enect
that even a pacifist would take part
here in a fighting zeal for the case OF
Jan Sincowiez. A love story OF unusual
cast goes along with the rest Of JAMS
education: love story that mas ltS start
in washington. And this brings out an
other of the high points of the novel
its true picture of washington life in
the blend of official and military glamour
that gives special coloring to society
in the Capital. There is single out
standing count for this novel, sincerity
of treatment. Such sincerity, almost
expert in its expression. is manifest
along two lines, at least. Most consplcu--
Gus in its war projections Almost
equally marked, though not so vital In
nature, is the fidelity of the Washing
ton setting for a part of the develop
ment of the action. There is besides a
robust conception of the hero himself.
and with this a clear competence IN
delivering him over to the hearty inter-
est of the reader. To be sure, the love
story Is a fine and outstanding one OF
rather unusual manifestations here and
there-but love stories are much OF
likeness. So the honors Of this sub
stantial novel rise out of the quality OF
its hero, out of the fidelity of the war
pictures that it projects, out of the
Washington atmosphere that it so re-
alistically portrays and--cion't forget
out of the good story that these combine
to produce. "A Washington Army man,

TR HE special exhibition of sculpture
by Carl Christian Nose at the
Corcoran Gallery Of Art is OF
4 unusual interest. In the first
place, It Is distinctly out of the
ordinary, different from what one COM
monty sees. In the second place, it con-
sists largely OF work done for the WASH
ington Cathedral, which, though still
incomplete, has become mecca for
visitors.
It has been customary ever since
cathedral building began TO adorn these
great houses of worship, monuments of
Christian faith, with appropriate sculp-
ture. The Washington Cathedral will
follow this custom. and it is crafty
ing to know that the first commission
for sculpture was given to Washing
ton sculptor. 1t was for the full-length
figures Of - saints seven of which have
now been completed.
Six Of these saints are included in
the present exhibition. They are IS.

At frequent intervals since Herbert Hoover be-

charged that he is cold sefcontered and without that

This charge has been made in spite Of the fact
that Mr.. Hoover demonstrated decade ago that the
