RECOVERY IN STOCK
MARKET RESUMES
Many Early Gains Are Re.
ported as Rally Carries
Through Morning. Z
BY STANLEY w. PRENoSIL.
Associated Press Financial Editor.

NEW YORK, October 22.-After q
week of severe declines the stock mar
ket finally turned upward today. with q
rebound comparable to the sharp upturn
which came upon the heels of the dras-
tic reaction of October 3 and 4. Scores
Of stocks sold up from to nearly 80
points, and many regained the losses of
the past two sessions.
Traders felt that the violent sweep.
ing out Of weakened marginal accounts
in the past two sessions, when trading
facilities were overwhelmed with
frenzied selling, had in large measure
corrected weak technical position and
an inflated price level, and had placed
the market once more on fairly firm
footing. Commission house advices
generally maintained rather cautious
attitude, however, and there was a
tendency to look for rather quiet and
irregular trading for time.
Mitchell Statement.
A statement by Charles E. Mitchell,
chairman of the National City Bank,
Just returned from Europe, to the eff
feet that he considered that the mar
ket had had a healthy reaction and
that the decline had probably overrun
itself, had salutary effect upon Wall
Street sentiment The days news was
largely pleasing, including declaration
of 81 extra dividend by Norfolk &
Western, several satisfactory earnings
statements, conspicuous among which
were those Of General Electric and
American Superpower, and approval Of
a plan by Missouri Pacific directors to
refund accumulated preferred dividends.
Much of the upturn occurred in the
first hour of trading, when shorts rush.
ed to cover in response to the feeling
that the market had reached bottom.
Trading during the first half hour was
almost equal to that of yesterday, but
quieted down somewhat as the session
wore on.
Significant Gains.
Western Union surged up 20 points
to a new high at 270. Rumors persist
that splitup is pending, although
firm denials have been issued by the
management. J. I. Case surged UP 20
points, Columbian Carbon 20 and Easts
man Kodak IA. Many other issues
gained from 9 to IL points.
