Ayres Voices Doubt
That Bear Market

Bonk Economist Points

CLEVELAND, May 15.-The pos

counted today in the monthly busi-
ness survey of Col. Leonard P.
Ayres. Cleveland Trust Co. vice
president.
although many students have
concluded in recent months that
bear market was under way" he
said, such a development would be
most unusual" in the history of
market movements.
He described the fear of war as
the most important influence shap-
ing the course of business, and said
business in the United States this
spring has been fairly good"
Col. Ayres pointed out the de-
cline in stock prices from the aver
age of last November to that of
April has been 13 per cent.
This is not an exceptional de-
cline for five-month period and

ing evidence that the present
downward movement is in reality
the beginning of a new bear mar
ket," he said.
The bright spots of manufactur-
ing were described as shipbuilding,
aviation, machine tools, chemicals
and most parts of the automobile
industry. The reports of 305 lead
ing industrial concerns, he said,
showed a profit of about 206,0O0,-
600 during the first quarter of the
year, more than twice as much
as in the corresponding period last
year.
The economist asserted, however,
business activity as measured by
the physical volume of industrial
production was 24.2 per cent be-
low the normal level in January
265 below in February, 267 per
cent below in March and about 20
per cent below in April. He said
the bituminous coal shutdown
caused most of the April decrease.

The Anglo-French allies have
made 1t abundantly clear that their
land strategy from now on in Eu-
ropes fantastic war is to sit tight
and pay out plenty of rope to Herr
Hitler in the belief he will hang
himself In the long run.
Being convinced that the only
sort of conflict the NaA leader
originally was equipped for was a
blitzkrieg lightning war;, which
became a pet phrase of his, the
allies have reached the comfortable
conclusion that he already has lost
the opportunity Of waging such a
war and is beginning to feel the
lack Of sinews for a protracted ses-
sion.
The allied policy of watchful wait
ing on the western front, however,
doesn't mean that the war has died
at birth, as lot of folk mistakenly
believe. It's a crazy war, but it's
still alive.
The Anglo-French Gmainly Eng
lish naval blockade represents the
flercest offensive they are capable of
waging against Germany at this
time.
Calculated to Strangle Reich.
1t isn't spectacular like a land
operation. But it's there just the
same-a moose which is calculated to
strangle the Reich unless Hitler can
break it.
The Fuehrer is devoting his chief
energies to torpedoing his way
through this hunger-ring, and at
the same time Is trying to sink
enough British merchant shipping
to squeeze an England which is
dependent on the outside world for
three-quarters of her own food
supplies.
As regards the western front,
military experts on both sides agree
that the German West Wall and
the French Maginot Line are so
nearly impregnable that an attempt
to smash either will pile up casual
ties that would have staggered even
Napoleon, predicate as he was with
human lives. Hence the reluctance
to start a great offensive there.
The whole allied strategy at this
moment is directed at constant
tightening Of the blockade, coupled
with an intensive propaganda drive
to try to create a revolt among
the German people against Hitler.
If the propaganda doesn't work
the allies still have in mind that
