NEW YORK, January 3.-VVall Street
experiences a January rtse" often
enough to be on the lookout for 1t at
this time Of the year, says the Standard
Statistics Co. 1t is supposed to be
brought about in large measure by the
re-inveStment demand of lar,ee inStitu-
tons and important holders of securi-
ties in receipt of interest and dividend
disbursements which, in the aggregate,
reach very impressive total
There is ample reason for believing,
however, that this re-investmeht buying
exerts no important influence on the
course of prices unless assisted by other
fundamentally bullish factors. At all
events. there are many exceptions to
the rule that stock prices advance In
January.
January, 1929, was a month in which
substantial net gain was scored by
average prices, but the first half was
reactionary. and the advance came in
the last half. January, 1928. was one
OF generally declining prices. The main
trend Of prices was also downward in
January, 1927.
Dividend and interest disbursements
this year end will doubtless be the
largest ever. and inasmuch as the
market has been in process of liquida-
ton for the last four months, a tech.
nical rally may very we'll be in order
In January, assuming that business does
not fall off at more rapid rate. Efforts
TO anticipate market movements by
reading the calendar, however, should
never be taken very seriously.

 Meanwhile, another contest will test out the potential county pur- chasing agents qualifications as q plnochle expert. Three candidates for the appointive position, Marshall L Hyde, John Flank and Maurice kraus, will see who can meld fast est and most frequently. The best man will get the republican support.

.ST0ECKEL WARNS
 CUT.OUT DRIVERS
Says Increasing Speeds Make Practice More Dangerous

Hartford, July A - It is becom- ing increasingly more difficult to cut in and out of traffic and correctly estimate the speed of a car coming from the opposite direction. Accord ing to the records of the Connecticut department of motor vehicles the number of drivers who get into ser ious trouble while trying to pass the cars is large9 ir each successive year.
 In an article prepared in the in terests ~of highway safety and read from WTIC, the Travellers station, this afternoon, Commissioner Of Motor Vehicles Robbins B. Stoeckel pointed to the fact that speeds to- day are being stepped mp continu- ously as one of the reasons why the practice of cutting in and out of line of cars is dangerous. The average speed is far above old speeds which were once consider eG reasonable and proper" he said. T; is no longer safe to presume, after a nasty estimate, tlpt there IS time to get around one CT two cars Ie- fore an approaching car gets too near. Expert drivers often misjudee the speed of an approaching vC- hicle, eyen in the daytime"
 A0S Guessed Wrong
 Last year, 408 drivers cut out at the wrong time and found them selves in accidents. Death resulted Ill several cases. there were mum,
 ous personal injuries, and n every accident there was considerable damage to property. More than 2Un Of these accidents were on straight | aways, where the view ahead was good. And yet the drivers failed to | judge conditions and the speed of other vehicles correctly. Many of the others cut in on curves, hills and | at intersections. Most of these ac- | cidents, obviously. were the result of reckless driving. The operators were without even the excuse that they could see for a long distance i ahead.
 Gases coming to department at ! tention illustrate clearly that even experienced drivers need a long l straight distance to pass two cars. ! the act should be undertaken only when there is an absolutely. clear | road for a long distance ahead" While it was common practice a few years since, when traffic was lighter, for a car to dash out of line and pass a whole line of cars, the practice has been curbed by po- lice discipline and by the fact that conditions have become so danger ous that few drivers are reckless enough and careless enough to try it. It is necessary to stay in line to be safe.'
