IN STOCK UPTURN
Brokers Believe Rally viii Go
Further, but Would Await
Added Tests.
BY the Associated Press.

letters believed the technical rally would

results may be obtained. If the second
quarter shows no improvement over the

sions are inevitable and the market

the conservative policy is to defer new
commitments until the market has had
an opportunity to show how well 1t can
absorb secondary selling.
Shields g. Co.-while there is belief
that fairly good technical comeback
is in the making, the best thing for the
market would be for 1t to quiet down
and stay dull while the several higher
priced issues that have not fully dis
