lESsION? IS RECOVERY coMING?.

uation, however, is this that the stock market, which is supposed to be a barometer of business, was almost the last sector of business to collapse.
 If the stock market were a good forecaster of business 1t would have collapsed a year earlier, just as 1t would have collapsed six months sooner in 1929. Instead 1t coasted along upon the assumtion that business would rise long af- ter business actually began to de- cline. That is why, when 1t did collapse, the market went down with depressing speed.
 I do not assert that this is true, but 1t may be that when 1t did de- cline, 1t went to indefensible levels of gloom. There is not the slightest doubt that Wall Street was the very center of national pessimism in April and May of this year. The terrible disaster to the Stock Exchange which came from the default and disgrace of Richard Whitney had much to do with its utterly de- moralized mood. Also Wall Street gave itself up with almost child ish abandon to Its hatred of the administration and was always will ing to believe the very worst in the worst of all possible worlds.
 The result of this was that there was not a twitter there to indicate the coming of the wave which rolled over the exchange in the middle of June. Wall Street was astonished. It has continued to be astonished. But no one can accuse Wall Street of whipping up this rise.
 The rise came to halt actually at the end of the first week in July. Some of the gains have al- ready been erased. But the furry in stocks has been the signal for burst of optimism throughout the country almost unprecedented in its suddenness and spontaniety. In tomorrow's installment we will try to find out the reasons for this.

 Suddenly and without any warn- Ing, in the third week of June, the sun broke from behind the clouds in Wall Street.
 For three weeks thereafter the stock market, reused from its torpor, churned about in the most exciting trading the Street has seen in a long time. In three weeks the aver age prices of fifty leading stocks rose twenty points.
 Promptly the forecasters rushed into print to announce to the world that the turn in the tide had come. That this was the beginning of a new recovery movement.
 People are not natural pessimists Pessimism fatigues their minds. They are swift to spring to hope.
 The market had been going down since August in one of the most dismal descents 1t had known since 1884. Trading had reached q low level in volume and brokers sat around in state of melancholy so DluC JIldL LIlc OtOCk bhCIldIlbC dl- lowed wave of reform to sweep over 1t. The moment had come when the natural optimism of the people was ripe to express itself.
 And so when the market showed sudden sign of life on that Mon- day morning, from all over the coun- try next day orders to buy poured into Wall Street.
 This movement has posed for the man in the street this tre- mendously important question: Is this the bottom of the depression? Has the tide really turned? Are we about to see another recovery movement such as we witnessed from the end of 1894 to the end of 1897?
 First, let us take a look at just what happened to us between De- cember, l936, and June, 1888. That period marked IS months of busi- ness decline. And 1t was a serious decline. In December, 1886, the steel

TH1N.s KNOW NO FINER THINGS THAN DOGS
 From Poems Selected by Hazel Fellenan) Though prejudice perhaps my mind befogs, I think know finer things that dogs The young ones, they of gay and bounding heart, Who lure us in their games to take a part, Who with mock tragedy their antics cloak, And from their wild eyes tail, uomit the joke; The old ones with their wstfu fading eyes. They who desire no further paradise Than the warm comfort of our smile and hand, Who tune their moods to ours and understand Each word and gesture; they who lie and wait To welcome lls--with rebuke if late Sublime the love they bear; but ask to live Close to our feet, unrecompensed to give Beside which many men seem very logs I think know finer things than dogs.
