STOCKS END DAY
IN VIGOROUS RALLY
Closing Prices Represent
Gains of Two to Four
Points and More.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Dispatch to The Star

Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, June 16.-A day of
highly nervous trading, rapid changes
of trend and new lows for the reaction
on the Stock Exchange ended with a
vigorous rally At the close prices were
up on the day to 4 points and much
more above their lows.
Along with the recovery in equities
went an upward movement in the prin-
cIpal foreign exchanges. In midafter-
noon sterling was up So cents and
francs up 634 points. Cotton rallied
with stocks, but wheat left off lower,
The price of crude oil and gasoline was
advanced.
Led by A. T. & t.
The recovery in stocks was led by
American Telephone, with special
strength in Chrysler How much of
the advance was due to short covering
1t Is impossible to say, but in any event
the technical position of the market was
greatly strengthened by the ordeal 1t
went through Thursday and today.
The overnight developments should
have been reassuring. In the f1rst
place there was the Washington denial
that any agreement had been reached
for the stabilization Of the dollar in
relation to the pound. In the second
place Congress had adjourned and the
President had won victory on the pen
sion bill. There was no disturbing
business news at home. Confidence,
however, had been shaken by the upset
of the market on the day before and
it was unable to regain its equilibrium.
Opening quotations were higher and
for an hour or so the market held a
point or two above its preceding close.
The buying was partly for account OF
those who thought they saw bargains
after so sharp a break and partly 1t
was covering in of short commitments.
When these orders had been filled
the pressure reappeared and all the
first hours gains were Cancelled. with
many stocks well under the lows Of
Thursday. There were no wide-open
breaks, however, and the market seemed
to be experiencing the normal sec
ondary reaction" that follows a severe
decline.
Exchanges Irregular.
There was little to say about individ-
ual stocks. The market fluctuated as
a whole. Gold stocks made new lows
on the movement, including HomeStake
Mining, which broke 13 points more
after its precipitate decline Of nearly
Is points in the last hour yesterday.
Other high-priced stocks were better
supported, but all of them showed losses
of greater or less amount. Volume was
heavy and the tape consistently behind.
Sterling exchange opened on this side
at S403M, up 70, while the European
gold currencies were irregular, but gen.
orally lower. Sterling and francs ad-
vanced after the initial dealings, but
the market was nervous and uncertain.
The fact that negotiations for stabiliza
ton we're continuing IN London, even
though no agreement had been reached
on ratios, brought additional bear COW
ering Of short positions In the dollar
abroad.
The stock market looked to the COM
modify markets for a cue to its own
position, but was not helped much
thereby. Wheat was of fractionally at
the opening and then reacted sharply.
Cotton advanced at the start, but its
action was inconclusive.

80 Per Cent Bill, Including
Wine Clauses, Up for
Speedy Action.
FLIGHT BEER BEFORE
DARK" is new SLOGAN
Harrison Will Endeavor to Keep
Members in Session Until Measure
Is Given Approval.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Adopting the House slogan Light
Beer Before Dark" Senate leaders today
pressed for passage Of the beer and wine
bill before adjournment.
Senator Harrison, Mississippi, brought
the bill up for consideration as soon as
the Senate met at noon On the floor
he expressed the hope that the bill
could be passed today. Privately ne
said he would endeavor to hold the
Senate in session unti1 the bill was
passed If it appeared that it could be
done within reasonable time. Without
record vote and practically without
debate the Senate adopted the firss
committee amendment to the HounA
bill, authorizing the manufacture and
sale OF wine containing 80 per cent OF
alcohol by weight.
Answers QUESTION:
Senator Harrison explained briefly
the provisions of the beer bill and in
reply to questions said that there was
no provision in the bill against ad-
vertising the beer and wine authorized
in the bill. He said that it was esti-
mated the Government would receive
from $l25, 100000 to s15o,00o, 900 reve-
nue..
Senator Tydings of Maryland, author
Of bill to regulate the manufacture
and sale of beer in the District of
Columbia, gave up his plan to offer the
District bill as an amendment to the
beer and wine bill.
The Senator from Mississippi, Mr..
Harrison, has asked me not to press
my bill for the regulation of the manu-
facture and sale of beer in the District
of Columbia" said Tydings. Il am re-
luctant to do this unless we can have
an agreement to pass such bill before
we adjourn
The Senator from Maryland has a
good BILL" replied Senator Harrison.
Il would be glad to see 1t pass But If
it were offered as an amendment to this
bill it would undoubtedly provoke long
discussion. So far as I am concerned
can say to the Senator that I will do
all can to expedite the passage of this
bill for the District of Columbia after
we have disposed of the general bill
I myself have an amendment which I
should like to add to this beer bill-an
amendment to extend the Federal gaso-
line tax OF cent gallon for another
year, but am going to withhold it in
the hope that We can pass the beer BILL
Tydings Agrees to Wait.
In view of what the Senator from
Mississippi says and in view of similar
assurances of the Democratic leader of
the Senate" said Senator Tydings, II
will not press my amendment for the
manufacture and sale of beer in the
District of Columbia at this time"
Senator Harrison said that under
the text of the beer bill each brewer
would pay tax of $1,000 for every
brewery operated. He estimated that
81 900 900 would come into the Treasury
from that tax. He said there would be
imposed on wholesale dealers a tax of
$50 and on retail dealers a tax of $40
for the sale of beer and SIS for the
sale of wine. Senator Vandenburg Of
Michigan asked Senator Harrison
whether under the terms Of the bill
home brewers Of beer would be penal
lied.

BERLIN. March 16 R.-Hjalmar
Schacht,. who was president of the
German Reichsbank from 1928 to
1880, was reappointed to that post
today, succeeding Hans Luther, who
resigned this morning.
BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, March l6.-Dr. Hans Lu-
ther today resigned as president of the
Reichsbank.
There have been reports for several
days that DR.. Luther would resign as
president of the Reichsbank. On one
occasion he said he had no knowledge
of the reports.
Chancellor Adolf Hitler has held sew
eral conferences recently with the
Reichsbank head.
DR.. Schacht Is one of the most versa
tile figures of postwar Germany. He
got most of the credit for Strengthening
out the country's finances when the Pc
riod of imitation ended and the era OF
stabilization began.
Assisted by foreign banks. he estab-
lished a new gold bank and reorgan-
lied the currency system. In 1929 ne
threw his weight with Owen D. Young
in drafting a plan at Paris designed to
establish definite reparations total,
but he withdrew in 1880, dissatisfied
with the final draft of the Young plan
as agreed upon at The Hague.
He has lectured In the United States
and has written several books on f1nan-
cial subjects.
Last week, on one of several occa-
sions when DR.. Schacht denied any
knowledge of an arrangement to return
him to the Reichsbank, he took the
opportunity of asserting that there will
be no imitation in Germany. Repara-
tions are dead, he said. but private debts
must be paid to the last penny.

DAVIS MADE HEAD
OF j. s. ARMS BODY
New Chairman of Delegation
Charged to Prevent COL
lapse of ParIey.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

Norman H. Davis has been appointed
chairman of the American disarma-
ment delegation at Geneva with the
rank of an Ambassador, it was an
nounced today by Secretary of State
Cordell Hull.
The new Ambassador will leave the
United States the middle of next week
to take up his duties at Geneva, where
he will have his headquarters. Mr..
Davis is expected to visit some Euro
pean capitals, principally the storm
centers of Europe, in an endeavor to
bring about better understanding and
prevent, if possible, complete collapse
Of the Disarmament Conference.
The task Of Mr. Davis will be more
important than that Of any other AM
bassador of the United States abroad.
He has been entrusted by the Presi-
dent not only to try to salvage the
arms parley, but also to prepare the
International Economic Conference as
we'll as the conference of the wheat-pro-
oucing countries for the reduction of the
present output of agricultural products.
Two Others at Geneva.
Whether the present formation of
the American delegation at the dis
armament conference will be changed
has not been decided yet. For the
time being there are only two American
delegates at Geneva; Ambassador Hugh
Gibson and Minister Hugh Wilson.
Before the July adjournment Of the
conference the American delegation was
an imposing one and contained besides
Davis, Wilson and Gibson the present
secretary of the Navy, Claude Swanson.
and number of technical experts like
Admiral Hepburn and Gen. Simonds
When the American delegation re-
turned from Geneva last Summer,
there was sum of only some $40, 1000
left from the original appropriation of
Sl50,000 given by Congress for the pur-
pose of sending an American delega-
tion to Geneva Unless Congress de-
cides to appropriate new funds. and
that depends entirely on whether Presi-
dent Roosevelt thinks that the con-
ference has real chance of accomplish
ing its object, it will be difficult to send
a large delegation to Geneva as in the
past.
Lunched at White House.
Secretary Hull and Ambassador Davis
lunched today at the White House and
discussed with the President the re-
manning details of Mr.. Davis mission.
While there are certain doubts in
the minds of high American officials
as to the final success of the Disarma-
ment Conference, it is said that Am
bassador Davis persists in his conviction
that a limited agreement is possible and
