 ''The economic necessity for man. ufacturers, wholesalers and jobbers to expand their sales and credit policies. because of growing compe- tition, would make business exceed ingly vulnerable to bankruptcy fraud if credit protection were with drawn" he said.
 Tt is reasonable to suppose that the present era of easy credit would lead to redoubled outbreak of bankruptcy fraud. particularly among professional crooks, if the opportunity presented itself"
 He pointed out that the crime of fradulent bankruptcy which entails the concealment Of assets by dis economic evil that affects not only the manufacturer. wholesaler or jobber directly defrauded. but also the honest merchant and the con- suming public.
 '"The honest retail merchant" Dr. Miller said, .is severely handica D. ped by large quantities of bank ruptcy merchandise thrown on the market in direct competition with his own goods. which he has bought for 100 cents on the dollar whole sale value.
 The depredations of the bank ruptcy criminal affect the consumer because manufacturers and whole. sale houses defrauded by the crook must raise their prices in order to compensate themselves for their losses"

STOCKS CO HIGHER
IN HEAVY BUYING
Market Makes Further Re-
covery on Expected Ease
in Credit.
BY STANLEY w. PRENOSIL,
Associated Press Financiel Editor.

NEW YORK, June 4.-Stock prices
made further recovery in today's mar
xet on buying influenced by reported
improvement in the credit situation and
favorable trade and earnings reports.
Widespread rumorS were in circulation
in the financial district that the Fed
aral Reserve Board had relaxed its cred
it policy and that an increase in re-
discount rates was now unlikely.
Call money renewed at 7 per cent. as
against an opening rate OF yesterday.
There was no change in time money
rates. While Wall Street expects a fur
ry in the call rate around the 18th of
the month the advance is not likely
to be as violent as the money squeeze"
in March.
High-priced specialties, in which a
substantial short interest had been
| created on the recent decline, showed
some striking gains. Commercial Sol
vents jumped 1919 points, Refs first
preferred and Otis Elevator, 10 each,
Case Threshing Machine, 912; Inter-
| national Business Machines, "a, and
Burroughs Adding Machine, Curtiss,
Stromberg Carburetor, Marmon Motor,
Sears Roebuck, General Electric and
Worthington Pump were run up to
7 points.
Some weakness developed in the rail-
road shares in the early trading, but
offerings were readily absorbed. and the
rails moved forward again in the early
afternoon.
Oils continued to attract a large
following on the theory that recent
gasoline and crude Oil price advances
| would be reflected in higher second
quarter earnings. Simms Petroleum,
which, it is estimated, will add more
than $3.50 a share to annual income
| if the current prices are maintained,
| in addition to an appreciation in inven-
tories, was bought in large volume,
crossing SO to a new high record.
Operations for the advance were con-
| tinued in the late trading when gains
of from 5 to points were made by
several leaders, such as Wright Aero
Radio, National Cash Register, Greene
! Cananea Copper, Sears Roebuck and
United Aircraft. The closing was

ed last Saturday when woodwork
built over flue hole in a chin

the wood. Firemen cut the ex-
