CURB SHARES GAIN
IN HEAVY BUYING
Market Shakes Off DepreS-
sion as Brisk Rally
Develops.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 14.-Heart-
ened by a series Of constructive devel-
opments overnight, curb exchange
stocks today opened from l to 10 points
higher and held their gains well. The
better tone resulted from cancellation
Of market selling orders as well Is
through purchases.
Widely held stocks showed the sharp
est recovery, clearly indicating that
sizeable part of today's rally was due to
the public.
Margin Requirements Eased.
The New York Curb Exchange, unlike
the Stock Exchange, plans no queS-
tionnaire to ascertain the size or source
of the short interest, because with the
stocks, so few issues on the Curb can be
sold short with any safety.
Such issues as Cities Service Electric
Bond & Share, Transamerica, Standard
Oil of Indiana, American Superpower
and few others are said to harbor
sizeable short interests, which probably
win climb out If the rallying tendencies
continue.
Constructive DEVELOPMENTS aside from
the promised income tax cut and the
firm bid of so for 1000, 900 shares Of
Standard Oil Of New Jersey on the
big board, included further loosening
of margin requirements in international
markets like Montreal and the better
tone of trading in London.
international stocks were among the
first to come out at higher prices.
They were followed by the Standard
Oils, virtually all of which felt the
influence of the bid for Standard of
New Jersey.
Accompanying the rally in oils were
the utilities, trading companies ana
aviation shares. Some Of the miscel-
laneous industrials and most OF the
motors were weak, but coppers 1nl=
proved. Operating utilities showed the
widest gains, but some of the holding
and finance companies, whose securities
were selling below the market price of
the collateral in back of them, also
forged ahead.

 Parcel Shipments
 The coHccnsus is that business is practically the same as last season. One or two merchants claim is as much as Q per cent greater At the parcel post office this contention sens 10 be borne out by the fact that outgoing and incoming ship ments are reported to be slightly in excess of last year.
 Most merchants agree that if thcv break even with last years business they will do well Hs can be expected. several contend the volume of trad ing is slightly under that of last year.
 Records at the freight station in- diCutc that the freight shipments ot Christmas merchandise are practi- cally on d par with last year. but are beginning to show q slight falling off. \ fresh spurt is expected when the stores begin keeping open nights beginning Thursday of this week.
