CTS, banks and insurance com panies have been heavy purchas- ers' of long-term issues. The buy ing of long-term governments by insurance companies alone since January has been in excess of their entire purchases of this group during the past two years.
 Numerous factors have been responsible for this change" adds the source. Most important prob- ably Is the heavy accumulation of excess cash reserves in bank vaults, coupled with the improved sentiment in business and indus try which has brought about Q change for the better in the out look for long-term investments.

Limited Press Financial EdftOr) New York April 2 - (UP) = Bonds made good gains during the
 past week while stocks Armed
 modefately commodities were mix
 cd, the dollar was cratic, and
 business was steady to better.
 Expressions of leading business
 executives were more optimistic
 than the revelations of the statis-
 ties. Myron c. Taylor, chairman of
 U. 5. Steel, said business had defi-
 nitely turned the corner. Alfred F.
 Sloan, IT,, president ofs General
 Motors. found the trend of recov- cry upward with an irresistible
 force. F. H. Brownell, chairman of American Smelling, looked for
 higher silver and copper prices. Thomas J. Watson, president of ln-
 ternational Business Machines,
 saw definite gains in business.
 In business, the only major in.
 dex to gain was electricity output,
 which made the best showing in
 total kilowatt hours for the past 119 weeks. Steel operations, auto
 mobile production and car loadings declined. The latter's recession--19 cars---was less than seasonal. Re-
 tail trade continued as bright
 spot in the business picture.
 Meanwhile, Washington contin- ued to guide all market move mcnts. There was a rift in the
 forces working for a stock cx- change regulation bill. As the week closed there was a trend toward modification of the measure as now written. A revised bill Is due on Monday.
 Most of the business done on the exchange was routine. There was buying here and there in the list for special reasons. Some of the mercantile issues were bid up on sharp gains in March sales. These sales gains ranged up to
 more than 1SO per cent over last year, the largest being in Spicgel, May Stern. Montgomery Wards sales were up more than 62 per cent and its mail order sales up more than 94 per cont.
 Railroad shares were in fair de- mand late in the week. Oils picked up. Automobile issues were steady, Silvers did little, but copper im- proved on expectations tho copper code soon would be adopted. Util-
 ities had spurt on Thursday
