Seems Fairly Confident.

New York, May IS P,-Moderat
speculation for the rise dominated
trading on the stock market today.
as traders appeared considerably
encouraged by the frmer tone de-
veloped by the list late last week.
The change appeared TO be largely
psychological however. for business
and trade news vas moager and in
dicated little save that the early ef-
/ fccts Of the normal seasonal lull arc
now being felt.
Some Rails Show Drop
April railway operating income
reports continued TO appear, and
the latest reports detract somewhat
from the improvement indicated in
the first handful appearing last week.
Net for the first Il carriers 10 re-
port shows a decline of nearly u
per cent, as against an indicated de-
cline of 90 per cent last week
A few OF the carriers have failed
to earn dividend requirements during
the first four months Of the year, but
with strong cash positions, anil
heavier traffic fairly confidently fors-
cast for the asst half Of the year,
reductions in disbursements are not
expected.
Presidents Donnelly Of the North
ern Pacific. and Williamson Of the
Burlington, reported fairly good crop
conditions in their territories, but
few signs OF business improvement.
the Philadelphia Federal Reserve
Bank reported an increase Of about
per cent in employment in the an
thracite coal fields in April. over
March, but a drop Of IS per cent
from April. 1929.

changed, and pointed to unsettled
commodity prices and a high Level

improvements 1t stated, however,
that the summer seasonal contrac-
ton may be comparatively moder-
ate. since the spring expansion was
disappointingly small.
On the whole, however, Wall
Street remained fairly confident OF
the appearance OF decisive signs o.
improvement by late summer or
early autumn, and some commenta-
tors pointed to the history of past
business recessions to back I'd thesa
expectations.
Bullish operations, nevertheless,
were held in check by the fact that
trading will be suspended for the
remainder OF the week at the end

mortal day weekend, Furthermore
tho market was still regarded in
conservative circles as working
within paratiyely narrow trad

IL aid were needed to support
this view of the matter. it would
be found in the facts conceded by

hibition act, period of ten years,
the executive department charged
with the administration and enforce
ment of the act have uniformly
construed it as not including the
purchaser in a case like the present:
