STOCKS IN RALLY
AFTER EARLY DROP
Market Recovery Is Resumed
in Afternoon-Trading
Volume Light.
BY STANLEY w. PRENosIL.


NEW YORK. February 17-Strong
rallying tendencies developed in today's
STOCK market after a heavy week end
accumulation Of selling orders had given
reactlonary appearance to early
tradlng,, Many of the early declines of
l 10 6I2 points we're cut in half, or
wiped out by early afternoon, and a
rather long list of issues were marked
up TO nearly 6 points above last
only moderately heavy in volume
Cali money, which opened at 4 per
cent and advanced to Az on Friday. re-
hewed at AZ today, with only mod
erate supply OF funds available. The
Clne money market was dull, with a
marked scarcity in foreign funds, which
up to recently have been one of the
chief sources of supply.
Renewed weakness developed in the
commodity markets, Chicago wheat flu
lures sagging more than cents a
bushel, while cotton sold off about 81 so
bale In the early trading.
Early selling was generally described
as correction of a temporarily over
bought position built up In the rally
OF the last month. Because of the
fact that stock prices have advanced
much faster than brokers' loans, Wall
Street Is inclined to the view that
marginal buying mas not reached very
impressive proportions, although the
volume Of funds loaned by banks
throughout the country on securities
collateral is still above that OF a year
ago.
In the morning reaction Auburn Auto
dropped 6ia points, Vulcan DEFINING
6l4 and Newton Steel, American Ma
chine 81 Foundry. Vanadium, Westing-
house Electric and Lackawanna drop
ped 3% to S points. Coppers and oils
were weak because of the uneasiness
regarding the price structure in those
industries. Standard Oil of New Jersey
sinking to new low level for the year.
United States Steel common sold down
ll2 points to l84l5, but recovered its
loss by early afternoon.
Strength and activity of the Amer
lean Wooden issues. in the face Of I'M
favorable trade reports, aroused con-
siderable curiosity. American Tobacco
established a new high record for all
time, just under 240 after having sold
down to 1884,. Brooklyn Union Gas,
Consolidated Gas, National Air Trans
port, Liggett e. Myers A and B and
Brooklyn Manhattan Transit also
moved into new high ground.

ADVERTISING TO SET
NEW RECORD IN 1870

Expenditures for cigar advertising
In 1880 will be larger than in any
previous year, according to a study Of
the industry completed by Otis 81 Co.
Because cigar companies in the past
have been slower to adopt machine
volume production and because ciga-
rette companies early spent large sums
for national advertising, cigarettes have
rapidly gained in competition with the
cigar, 1t is pointed out. During 1890,
however, several producers will devote
several millions of dollars, which
have never before been spent for this
purpose, TO advertising cigars.

FAST IN NORTHWEST

by tHO Aonueihtru EIcSs.
MINNEAPOLIS, February 1.-THE
eight-month-old chain bank movement
in the Northwest enters 1880 with two
powerful chains and numerous smaller
groups organized.
There are 80 of the latter in Mime
sofa alone. The two great chains have
aggregate resources of $976.OO 900 and
many bankers see in the movement a
chance for the Northwest to become
more independent of the financial CEN
tiers Of Chicago and New York.

first of the two largest chains was
started in January. 1929, and now has
resources of almost $450,000, 000. 1t in

One of the most successful bas- ketball seasons experienced by any team during the past year, was end ed by the First Lutheran quintet of this city at the Y. Nj. C. A. Satur- day night when the local combina- tion outclassed the Lutfel.ns of Springfield to win by the score of g. to 26. This was the tenth straight victory of the Hardware City five.
 Despite the fact that several of the stars of the New Britain team were playing elsewhere during the evening, the home club came through in fine style. Ray Hoist and "Hugsie" Carlson put in exceptional! exhibitions and they were backed up completely by their mates defensive ly. E. Todd and H. Mattson were the best bets for the losers both defens- lively and offensively.
 "Nibby" Nyborg started the SCOT ing with pretty toss from the side of the court. He was followed by "Ossie' Larson with a long toss and Ray Hoist with a "sucker." Todd started Springfield on the scoring run with a. foul and a two-. .ointer.
 Three minutes after the second period began. l.. Johnson was given the air because of personal fouls. This was his first appearance with the Swedes. "IIuggie' Carlson hook ed in two nice shots to increase the New Britain advantage.
 Upon resumption of play after half time intermission, the locals slowly but surely drew away from the visit ors. In the last session, however, Springfield, led by Todd and Matt son, staged spirited rally. However. the final whistle stamped out their chances for victory.
 Following the contest. the teams and their rooters repaired to the church parlors where the victorious aggregation was lauded and a social was enjoyed. The summary:

 He asked if they though the sea- tence passed on Sengupta after talk ing him all the way to Rangoon in- dicated that the government was stronger or weaker than in 1857 or 1919. If the government could not touch him, he asked, when he Was heading so volunteers how could they touch him when he was head ing S0,oo0?
 The Mahatma also announced that he wished that women who can ar range satisfactorily for care of thal; children should join in the civil dis obedience campaign against the British government. He explained that he neither desired nor expected women to neglect their children il furthering the cause.
 Two sets of women volunteers arc contemplated, one to take an active part in the civil disobedience canl- paign and the other for propaganda work.
