NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-Stocks
bounced up and down at frequent
intervals in today's market, and most
favorites finished we'll under best
levels of the session.
Leaders were at their tops during
the second hour. They encountered
profit selling and dipped before mid
day. There were several other rail-
lies and retreats, and at the close
a number of issues were slightly un-
der water.
1t was noticeable that volume
jumped appreciably on rising inter-
walls and contracted on reactions.
Notwithstanding several extremely
quiet lapses, the days turnover ex-
ceeded 100000 shares, one of the
largest since last November.
While the news was sketchy, Wall
Street began to feel that maybe
the worst of the current business
recession had been discounted.
Also there was a little more opti-
mism regarding politics and poten-
tldl overseas purchases OF American
goods. At the same time, some
analysts thought yesterdays sharp
market bulge was mainly technical
and far from convincing.
Among new highs for the year or
longer were Studebaker, Loft,
Brooklyn Manhattan Transit pre-
ferred, Atlas Powder and Cluett.

CHICAGO, Feb. 9-Wheat prices
advanced a cent a bushel today to
the best level in more than two
weeks, but then backed down, giving
up all of the sessions gains.
Improved demand for cash wheat
aided the early upturn. while profit
taking encouraged by the fact that
prices were about 5 cents above last
weeks lows accelerated the reac-
ton. Some attention was attracted
by Washington reports of diplo-
matte moves which many traders
regarded as encouraging peace pros
poets, but these were offset by news
of strained international relations
IN the Near East.
