STOCKS MAINTAIN
UPWARD TENDENCY
Market Moves Ahead BriskIy
at Short Session-Gains
Are Numerous.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,
Associated Press Financial Editor.

NEW YORK, July 26.-The stock
market broke out of the rut in which
It had been confined for two days
with brisk upturn in today's short
session.
Popular trading shares were bid up
to S points. as professional opera
tons for the advance were encouraged
by the complete drying up of offerings
in yesterdays decline, resulting in a
rally before the close. Shorts who had
put out experimental lines recently
rushed to cover their commitments.
The market continued a highly pro-
fessional affair.
Such pool favorites as Case and
Vanadium rose about points. Gen.
eral Motors, one of the more stable
issues in which a strong speculative
group has been working, rose more
than point. Radio was bid up a
point or so early in the session, but
the move in this issue petered out
toward the finish.
Steel Again Leader.
United States Steel was again brought
forward as a leader, as 1t was late
yesterday, and sent up more than 2,
partially in response to fairly pleasing
forecasts of the second quarter earn
ings. to be disclosed next Tuesday.
American Telephone was a strong fea-
than points. Sponsors of the move
in this issue assert that there has been
a steady stream of investment ac-
emulation in 1t of late and that it
should do better marketwise after the
expiration Of the rights August /.
A group of active floor traders and
q few professional operators appeared
to provide the bulk of the days trad
ing, but It showed fair acceleration
over the low levels of the early hours
Of yesterday. Many traders had left
town for the week end, so the active
group had things pretty much to them
selves.
The rise again carried the general
level of prices well into the peak area
reached late last week, when the tech
nical reaction set in. Chart readers be-
lieve the market must be carried de-
cisively through this area before major
upward move can be considered as under
way. Another strong session would
do 1t.
Commission house sentiment contin-
ued in the main mildly bullish, al
though several looked for further
irregularity, and one market letter
writer expressed the opinion that it
was useless to make any recommended
tons while the market remains pri-
marily a scalping affair for active
traders.
Earnings Statements.
Earnings statements coming to hand
continued to show numerous exceptions
to the downward trend. In the aSsort-
ment of June net operating income
reports from railways, Missouri Pacific's
was conspicuous, approximating the re-
suits Of June Of year ago. Reports
from the steel industry included the
announcement that Youngstown Sheet
would maintain operations ct the pres
ent rate next week.
The rails were irregular. Chesapeake
& Ohio and Chesapeake Corporation
closed 134 higher, but Union Pacific
was on nearly and Atchison /, hav-
ing been down ga. General Electric,
Public Service of New Jersey and
American Can closed / to 2 points.
Radio lost all of an early rise of a
point The close was firm. Total sales
aggregated 9o0, 900 shares.

LONDON, Oct. 22.-Women are playing an increasingly important role in Indian affairs as far as the Nationalists are concerned, accord ing to Dr. David Chowry Muthu, Gandhis personal physician.
 Only in comparatively modern times have Indian women been re- pressed, he said.
 The women in ancient India en- joyed perfect freedom in every walk of life-social, religious and politi- cal. They could live their lives in any way they chose. They were well versed in astronomy, mathematics, logic, literature and poetry and wrote books on these subjects.
 Women of all ranks and grades have written poetical works and shown learning in Vedic lore. The daughters enjoy perfect freedom of thought and action, and were as enlightened as they were brave.
