NEW YORK, April 29.-Defeat of
the soldier bonus amendment late
Friday brought a sweeping rally on
the Stock Exchange after an carly
decline.
On the theory elimination of the
bonus cleared the way for adoption
of inflationary measures, traders
rushed into the market. Shorts COW
cred the scramble, clogged the tick
ers and they were several minutes
late.
Earlier in the day the list Jagged.
A decline of 1 to more than 8
points in the morning dealings was
kgradually recovered. Then the mar
Iket turned dull. The bonus an
anouncement increased volume with
prices rising rapidly to close higher
Athan the previous close.
General Motors in Demand
General Motors met demand that
brought out blocks of 1000 to 5000
shares. 1t made a new high for the
year. Other automobile shares were
bid up.
Railroad shares recovered early
NIosses. Utilities followed. Commu-
nications were firm.
Postal Telegraph preferred
mounted to new high for the
year. American Telephone, which
had touched 1914, came back to
above 95 against a previous close
of 94%.
Liggett & Myers B recovered an
early loss of 2 points Du Pont
jumped up 215 points from it's low;
Delaware & Hudson regained 3
points to the previous close; Corn
Products rallied more than 2 points.
Volume continued heavy to the
close.
Dollars Is Depressed
Wheat dropped sharply and closed
down liz to 2 cents a oushel Weak
ness was caused by upward revision
of winter wheat. Other grains
closed lower.
Cotton futures, which had been
depressed rallied, and other COM
modities regained part of early
| losses.
The dollar was depressed. It's de-
cline was a factor in the afternoon
Steadiness of the list.
Business news was favorable In
all divisions, notably the retail and
wholesale trade which was reported
making contra seasonal gains. The
steel industry continued to make
strides toward levels where the va
riouS units could clear their running
expenses.
The best showing was noted in
the YOUNGSTOWN district which re-
ported increased operations as rush
orders poured in.

DRIVE FOR TRADE
ABROAD DUE SOON
Study of Reciprocity Treat
les Almost Completed
by Committee.
py the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Through negotiation of reciprocity
treaties with from 10 to 12 prospective
good customers among foreign nations,
the Federal Government early in
January will undertake a program OF
expansion of American foreign trade.
The work will be pushed vigorously
along lines approved by President
Roosevelt and supervised by George N.
Peek, the former farm administrator.
The Executive Commercial Policy
Committee, designated by the President
to draft the policy and procedure for
the ambitious plan to revitalize the
foreign trade of the United States, has
virtually completed its study and will
present its conclusions to President
Roosevelt within a few days.
Secretary Wallace and Peek have been
cCnferring with members of the Com
mercial Policy Committee at frequent
intervals during the past two weeks,
Differences of opinion. which caused a
split between Secretary Wallace and
Peek and resulted in Peek's resignation
from the Farm Administration were
said To have been bridged during the
as unanimous.
Only a few technical details Of the
general plan for trade expansion
through treaties remain to be worked
out and it was said recommendations
would be sent to the White House in
the near future,
Under the policy plan to be submitted
to the President, final decision concern
ing the strategy TO be adopted will be
made by the President himself. The
President will also designate the first
nations with which negotiations will be
undertaken. The committees findings
were described as suggestions ana not
definite recommendations.
Unless the President decides other
wise the reciprocal treaties to be nego-
tiated will all contain the unconditional
INSTRUMENTATION clause.
Unless the recently concluded treaty
with Colombia meets with unexpected
opposition in the Senate 1t is planned
TO make it the model for the treaties
TO be negotiated with other nations.
Details of the Colombian treaty will
not be made public until it goes to the
Senate and the Colombian Congress.
1t was said, however, to contain the
unconditional most favored nation
clause as do the treaties under nego-
tiation with Brazil, Argentina, Sweden
and Portugal.
Administration officials realize that
the clause-which grants a nation
every concession given any other ma
tion by treaty-might at some time in
the future bring conflicting interests
into tariff discussions.
In order to mitigate controversies
on tariffs, Peek and the State Depart
