he was at sea, with romantic moon off the

New York City and the marriage lasted two

countess, but answered to the name Of Murray

Broadening Out

The most significant feature of
the session was the tendency for
the volume to broaden out on
the advance, with the total turn
over for the day the highest of
the week. If the pace of the last
hour had been maintained
throughout the session, sales
would have run we'll in excess of
the previous high day thus far
this year.
The Importance of this is better
realized when it is understood
that for a number Of years prior
to last April the market in gen.
eral was always in a buying range
when trading volume showed a
drastic reduction. as it did in
the early weeks of this year. How,
ever, since April of last year
periods of exceptional dullr.ess
have been following by general
market reactions on which trad,
ing activity increased. A time is
coming when this sequence will
again be reversed and the market
will advance from dull trading
areas.
