SOME LINES SHOW
IMPROVING TREND
WooIen, Silk, Rayon and
Other Trades in Better
Position.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Though major indicators and trade
trends indicate that some corporation
earnings during the third quarter OF
1882 will set low levels for the current
depressions, certain lines of industry.
mainly in the readily marketable goods
field, are expected to show gains over
the previous quarter.
This statement is particularly true
of the woolen goods industry, due to
Fall buying and to the subnormally low
rate of mill operations during May and
June Silk goods business has also
picked up appreciably during the third
quarter as contrasted with the previous
period, while cotton yarn, rayon, shoes
and others will show an upturn, II trace
indicators can be relied upon.
The heavy industries showing in the
quarter is expected to tear down the
general average, as these, particularly
steel, motors, the railroads. lumber and
mining suffered acutely during the
period. Some good news. however. came
out of the heavy industry when con-
struction noted some improvement,
though this was confined virtually to
public works contracts.
In the meantime, industry continued
to provide a firmer foundation for sus-
tanned recovery. Individual businesses
have been curtailing operating expenses
and increasing the output per worker
at lower costs. 1t is believed in Wash
ington that business management is
now operating on plane OF efficiency
higher than ever before and that this
capable organization, which has been
a necessary outgrowth of the depression.
will enable trade to go ahead quickly
and successfully upon restoration OF
world buying power.

STOCKS IN RALLY
ON ACTIVE TRADING
Market Closes at Top Prices
After Steady Gain r
During Day.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 11.-Retraciug
all the ground lost in yesterdays de-
cline, the stock market today staged
robust rally.
The advance was continuous from
start to finish, except for brief period
of hesitation in the early afternoon and
the close was at the best of the session.
The leaders on the recovery were
American Telephone g. Telegraph ub
nearly 5 points from yesterdays low.
United States Steel, J. I. Case, Atchi-
son and Union Pacific.
In the way Of news there was little
change. The most important item was
an advance in Midcontinent crude oil
initiated by the Sinclair Prairie oil
Marketing Co. American Telephone re-
ported that net loss of telephones for
the system during September was less
than 10000, compared with losses of
100000 in July and POI 900 in August.
Steel operations were estimated at 1912
per cent of capacity, a gain Of almost
2 per cent.
Commodities also did better today.
Wheat was up fractionally, cotton ad-
vanced from so cents to a dollar a bale.
and sugar was higher
The market opened higher and con-
tmued to rise during the first two hours
The recovery was so emphatic as to
suggest that it was due to short cover
ing prior to the Columbus day holiday
and to buying by traders who felt
confident that the market had been
oversold. Whatever the cause, it had
the effect of cheering the speculative
frnt nvr1it i4l1
depressed yesterday.
The rebound was led by the railway
shares. Gains ran from 3 to points
in the more active issue as Union Pa
cific, Atchison, Lackawanna and South
ern Pacific.
Predictions were made of better
showing in the next batch of individual
car loadingS statements, New York
Central being especially mentioned in
this connection. The disposition today
was to give more weight to the indi-
cations that the peak Of traffic this
year would be reached later than nor
mally.
American Telephone, which was so
heavily sold in the last hour yesterday,
held consistently above par by points
or more all the morning. The tele-
phone earnings statement was analyZed
favorably. If one put the emphasis on
the last month rather than on the
quarter. The next dividend meeting
is scheduled for November Is, when
the directors will have a clearer view
of the Winters business but today,
simply to illustrate the change OF
mood, traders were saying that even
if the dividend were cut to a per
cent basis the stock would be fairly
priced at par.

l2 Reserve District Compared.

Sales were better than the estimated
seasonal amount in the other II Fed
eral Reserve districts, as we'll as in the
fifth district, the Federal Reserve Board
reported here today. With most of the
districts making a much better show
ing in September than for the first nine
months of 1882, the chances are that
the rest Of the year will score steady
improvement on account Of the holiday
season.
The Federal Reserve Boards index
which makes allowance for the num-
ber of business days and for the usual
seasonal changes, was 68 in September
on the basis of the 1923-1925 average
as 100, compared with 66 in August and
81 in July
The percentage decreases from year
ago are reported by the Federal Re-
serve Board as follows:

Sees Stronger Railroad Bonds.


The school of thought which feels
that railroads are headed for the scrap
heap, and that the loans made by the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation are
merely postponing the evil day Of whole
sale reorganization, was decried by Har-
old G. Parker, vice president of the
Standard Statistics Co., in an address
on railroad bonds before the annual
meeting of the savings division of the
American Bankers Association.
In discussing the ability of railroads
to repay loans to the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation. the speaker said
that only minor portion Of them can
be said to be doubtful risks, and that
the Government will eventually lose lit
tie, if any, money on this phase of the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation ac-
tivities.
Mr.. Parker also held that in spite of
present handicapS, when the volume Of
business increases, as it must unless we
are to scrap our present standard Of
living. the railroads will demonstrate
that they can get their share of normal
business and can easily carry their pres
ent burden of debt and the relatively
small additional burden taken on in the
process of getting back on their feet"

silver fell nearly 25 per cent.
 Lead production amount ed to 3,321,000 pounds, which at the average selling price for the year was worth $126,000. This was the largest output of lead Alaska has produced and exceeded the output of 1930 by over 5000 pounds, atlhough the value was below that of many years owing to the small price during the year.
 Coal to the value of S55G,000 was produced from Alaska mines, principally in the Maia- nuska and Healy River fields. This was a decrease in both quantity and value, but the out put of 105,000 tons has been exceeded in only three years.
 Compared with 1880 the out put of tin showed a great fali- ing off, both in quantity and value.
