STOCKS HIT PEAK

Largest Saturday Volume in
Eight Months Lifts
Shares ST to 81.

NEW YORK. July 2.-Wall Street
shattered tradition with a burst of
pre-holiday buying today that sent
stocks Of industrial corporations to
thes highest levels since October
Normally cautious before an extend
ed week end-aH markets will be

Leading industrial shares were bid

Of l,472,420 shares was the high

+ Explanations Sought.
That the record-breaking upswing
of last week should carry on through
a second week without serious inter-
ruption left the financial community
blinking with surprise. casting about
! for convincing explanations.
That out of months of stagnation-
with smallest trading in a couple Of
decades-should come without warm
ing two-weeks' appreciation of some
l0,00O 100000 in quoted stock and
bond values. left the expects with a
staggering job of explaining
Favorite theory was that canny
traders, who had been looking for the
bottom of the slump along in July,
with the automobile makers shut
downs for model change-overs. sud-
denly noted that such measures OF
business activity as shipments of mer-
chandise over the railroads and con-
sumption of electricity. had been
creeping upward for weeks Then they
noted commodity prices beginning to
rise. The Governments new pump
priming was about to begin.
About the time they began to buy
stocks few manufacturers decided
it was not bad time to buy raw
materials. Starting almost from stand
still, the movement quickly attracted
attention of other potential buyers,
and the movement became a stampede.
Production May Rise, Too.
While manufacturing activity showed
little change, the securities and raw
materials markets exercised senti-
mental influence upon each other.
With the laying in of raw materials,
some manufacturers the past few
days have begun to talk of increasing
their production schedules. ~
So analysts claim the indica lions
are the turn is at hand. How far
or how fast economic improvement
will progress is another matter, but
the stock market is an emotional
affair. The ambition of traders is
to buy at the bottom and sell at the
top. and signals that there is an i'm
portant turning point either way
quickly stampedes them.

Three Billion Bill Passed

by A vote Of 1913 to 10 the house Of
- representatives passed the Pres
ident's three billion dollar spending
bill and sent it on to the senate
This action came during a turbulent
session.
A motion to send the bill back to
committee so that state administra-
ton of relief might be substituted
for federal supervision was defeated.
In addition to direct appropria-
tons calling for the expenditure of
2 billion 5l9 million dollars, the
measure carried authorizations to
spend an additional 635 millions of
dollars, making a total of billion
l54 million dollars which may be
spent by the administration in an
endeavor to fight the depression.
The biggest fight came on a move
to strike from the bill a section al
lowing states and municipalities to
exceed their constitutional debt linn
itations. This motion was defeated,
80 to Sc.
The farm bloc put over two amend
ments. One makes farmers eligible
for relief whether or not they are
found to be in need if they can
prove they are out Of work. The
other provides that farmers need
not be in needy circumstances to
benefit from free fertilizer provided
by the WPA.
