New York, Jan. 30 LP, -- Stock prices made further recovery in to- days market under the stimulus of favorable trade and earnings reports while pools continued to supply much of the activity, the broaden ing demand for stocks indicated an increase in public participation, par ticularly in some Of the season diNl- dend paying issues.

 Trading showed a further eApan- sion in volume, with the ticker ire quently running 10 minutes or more behind the market.
 Failure Of the Bank Of England to cut its discount rate today was construed as all indication that no change would be made in the New York Federal Reserve rate this at- ternoon, although the drop in the Bank of France rate was regarded as paving the way for an early re- auction in the London rate, which has been held up by the fear of fur theF SOlu exports from England 10 France.

REV. GEO. DONAHUE
 GOES TO ST. MARYS
Pomfret Pastor Chosen by Bish- op Milan to Succeed Rev. Fr.
 Keefe
Has Been Six Years In Pomfret.-
 Scholar and Author


 Rev George J. Donahue. of Pom fret. who assumed the pastorates of Holy Trinity church. Pomfret, and Sacred Heart church. West Thomp- son. in May. 1924. and whose ability as a preacher. orator and writer has made him widely known throughout the state. has been appointed pastor of St. Mary's church, Norwich, to succeed the late Rev. William A. Keefe While the appointment was made last week Monday by Rt Rev. John J. Milan. bishop of the Hartford diocese. it was not until Thursday af- ternoon that the transfer of Fr. Don ahue to this important parish in Nor wieh became known.
 Father Donahue is a native of Mer- iden where he attended the peroehial school. He later entered St. Thomas College. Hartford and, after finishing his course there. went to France for a two years course at the famous St. Sulpice Seminary. where he received the Ph. D. degree,
 Health Undermined
 His intensive study undermined his i health. French surgeons held out | little hope to him and advised his re- turn to America. He was brought back to his country. His home sur roundings and his family physician brought him back to the health that had been despaired of and he resum- ed his studies. entering St. Mary's Seminary. Baltimore. Upon his grad uation in 1907 he was elevated to the priesthood at Hartford by the late Bishop Tierney.
 Father Donahue was immediately assigned to service, first going to East Hartford. Later he was assigned to New Britain. Shelton and Bridgeport. He came to Pomfret from the latter ! city to succeed the late Rev. John J. ! Elty and has been in Pomfret ever since. ministering to material needs Q. the, parish as well as to the spirit ual needs of the parshioners.
 Scholar and Author Father Donahue is a scholar. He loves books and writes books. When ] he first came to Pomfret he had been approximately eight years a contrib utor to the Catholic Transcript A serial story written by him, "The Second Noeturne." was then running
 
 1 in that publication. At that time he had also written book. Damien and Reform" a study of modern uplift and reform with Damien and his life as a background. He has since pub l lished other works among which are Cardinal Newman" Books and Their Spiritual Value" and "The ! Poetry of the Mass"
 It will be recalled that when Father Donahue addressed the Chamber of 1 Commerce in Odd Fellows hall he urg- ed this town to do something about it's public library and told the people i that he saw too few books being car ried.
 While Father Donahue has enjoyed i his six years pastorate, and the ex- acting duties of administering to con- gregations in two parishes, he IS ! pleased to be selected for so important a church as is St. Mary's church, Nor wich.
