The friendship treaty between
Turkey and the Soviet Union was
concluded December IT, 1925. On
March IS of this year the Soviet For
eign Commissariat informed the
Turkish Ambassador that 1t was per-
mitting the treaty to expire. Owing
to profound changes which have
taken place, especially during the
second World War, the treaty mol

soon began to reach for favorites on
the idea the technical correction of
the lengthy upswing may have been
completed. Idle investment cash re-
mained as an inspiration. Easing of
the Syrian war threat aided senti-
ment.
Thoughts of antispeculation moves
in Washington and word Govern
ment contracts would be cut to the
extent of some $4,000. 100000 over
the next six months served to stress
growing demand for civilian clothes
revived textile stocks.
Dealings expanded at intervals on
the comeback and transfers for tie
ftill proceedings were around 1900
900 shares. Advances of fractions
to a number of points for isolated
favorites predominated near the
close.
At peaks for 1945 or longer were
Canadian Pacific, MKT pre-
ferred,, American Woolen, Wyan-
dotte Worsted, Chicago & Eastern
