RECENT RALLY IN STOCK
MARKET IS MODERATE

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, June THE average
advance in stocks since the low-price
level established at midday last Thurs
day was trif1e over points as the
market opened today. This Is the most
modest response that stocks have made
on important developments during the
past year. While it Is not satisfactory
to many holders of securities, it has
maintained a technical market position
that should be permanently helpful In
most other recoveries the rallies have
been twice as much as in this instance
and have been followed by heavy profit
taking. They have also tempted great
deal of short selling. The situation in
bonds since Thursday corresponds more
nearly to that of the previous rallies
in stocks. but in general bond values
had touched lower level. in proportion
to actual values, than had been the
case in stocks.

What To Do Next Year

Next year will be a year of transition, says Colonel Leonard P. Ayres, who charts American business weather. Business will change from declining trend to rising trend, from old conditions to new condi- tions. He does not promise anything sen- sational. but gives this plain, wholesome advice to everybody in language that almost anybody should be able to understand: In plans for lo32, whether personal or eorpor- ate, budgets should be balanced.
 This means that income should be coaxed up, and outgo should be pared down at whatever cost of thought and effort, until the two accounts overlap and leave at least little margin on the credit side. It in- wolves halt to ping up debts and progress in paying them down, This policy is the valid objective for the national govern ment, the state the municipality, the cor poration, the church. the club, the family.
 Tt will not do to think that we can wait until business recovery makes possible the adoption of this policy The order of events is the other way around, Prosperity will re- turn when millions of individual men and women rcsoutely grapple with existing con-
 
 which to build for the future. Business re- covery cannot be con iured into being by the enactment of legislation. The volume of employment will increase in proportion as individual business units so recorder thelr affairs as to enable them to operate at profit, Business can operate successfully at the new and lower price levels when once 1t has adjusted its operations to them.
 His final word is don't speculate! Don't speculate in land, in commodities or in stocks. As regards the last of these here IS a pearl of wisdom: Even in periods of rising commodity prices, stock speculation is the most laborious form of acqusitive enterprise" The country is over-equlpped with speculative facilities, he says, and its people like to use them. But speculation will not cure what ails us

Democrats who expect to figure proml-

 There certainly will be an opportunity Friday night for advancement of many an aspirant. Keynote addresses are scheduled to be given by James M. Cox of Ohio John w. Davis of West Virginia and New York, and Alfred E. Smith of New York. They . were the last three presidential candidates of : the democratic party and from general rumor it is quite possible that any one of , them might be again selected to lead the party against the Hoover hosts. While not
 actively engaged in seeking the nomination, . the famous trio above is undoubtedly recep-
 tive to any such honor. Certainly there is
 every effort being made by admirers of
 Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York 10 construe Smiths silence as an avowed intention on the latters part to
 secure the nomination for himself.
 At any rate the speeches of these three
 celebrities should command attention and
 respect. It is said that ex-Governor Smith
 will touch upon plan to care for business
 and unemployment evils with government
 bond issue of sufficient size. That promises
 to command the ears of the nation. As
 titular head of the party, former Governor Smith should be given some consideration and what he has to say on the rapidly approaching convention must be needed.

Let Doc Worry

To grown ups who worry about their health and apparently most grown-ups do so nowadays advice given by Dr Logan Clendening in recent book is reas- suring. He thinks we're getting to be en- tirely too health conscious. He lays down the rather fataistc rule that health, like rain. falls alike upon the just and unjust Still, people can do something about it. in negative sort of way. The first rule, he says, is mot to burden yourself with too many duties connected with your health.
 Adults, overfed with health advice, have come to think they're delicate. Really he insists. they are surprisingly tough. About the only things you can't do to them safely is to let them go, for any considerable time without fresh food, and to put germs under the skin or in any of the absorptive cavities of the body. They have acquired their immunity from many of the infectious diseases. You can take adults into places which would be reeking with danger 10 child. You can hurl them under autos and drop them from moderately high buildings with far more impunity than you could phonograph or kitchen clock Bones heal up; clocks do not" The conclusion of the whole matter is, stop worrying, get family doctor who understands you as an individual go to him when you have pain, and let him do the worrying,

Young will likewise absent themselves from the dinner. Oddly enough the latter two seek to avoid mention of their names in connection with the nomination. whereas. the public finds either of them the outstand- ing figure in democratic circles. We'll wager that if Baker would just announce his candidacy tomorrow he would be swept into the nomination in quick fashion next June' Even if he doesn't permit his name to be used, it will be hard to prevent his name being placed before the convention. We regard him as the strongest passive candidate whom Hoover may have to face omor- row night will settle many issues disturbing democrats just now. It will also cause republican souls to shver with dread of the coming election.
