Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, Nov 10.-Better Wall
Street sentiment lifted the stock mar
ket fractions to points today.
The more cheerful feeling in finan-
ciai circles had its origin in Washing
ton. Observers examined President
Roosevelt's calling list and found It
included: A leading Wall Street
banker top-fight industrialist, the
head of a construction company. a
prominent retailer and a labor expert
of a private concern. They met to-
gether to discuss means of spurring
construction.
This, analysts argued, meant the
Chief Executive may be paving the
way to administration measures TO
stem the tide of business recession.
The meeting of the business group
took on special significance, they said,
IN that it followed closely the Presi-
dents friendly gesture toward the
utility companies.
The SLOW pace of the markets adj
vance. experts said indicated thai
pleased as traders may be by signs oi

over the board also were higher.
Brokers here look for host of diu-
dend declarations during the remain

s that a flood of such payments was
made at the end of 1896 to avoid taxes
The same tax laws still prevail. While
many brokers say they look for tax
adjustments by Congress, the time
these will be made is very doubtful.
