MARKET IS FACING
new TEST OF LOWS
AL Three Groups of Securities
Have Hit Bottom for
the Year.
Special Dispatch to The star.

SpoSAaA DlSpbtCn 70 Ine btar.
NEW YORK, December 12.-The
stock market is now definitely In lower
ground than 1t has been at any time
this year. All Of the three groups have
broken through their November bot
toms, though not enough so to consti-
tute serious technical disadvantage.
The average, however, does test the
courage and faith of those who have
believed that there would be suflcient
resistance around the low points to pre-
vent a break through them.
A few of the leaders have managed
TO hold above their previous lows, but
the margin is too narrow to be COM
Portable. In other periods of market de-
cline, such as July, October and No
vember, when previous bottoms had
been reached, there were sharp rallies
The market, for instance, held nearly
a month above the November range
Inasmuch as q considerable amount of
the liquidation that has been going on
the past two weeks Is now recognized as
having had q relation to the failure OF
the Bank Of the United States, It Is
felt that. with this situation out Of the
way, selling will dry up and that the
market from now until the end of the
year will have to deal with offerings
representing operations for tax pur-
poses rather than for distressed account.
