NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-R- Lee
by steels and a wide assortmen'
of industrial specials, the stock
market today negotiated its best
recovery push and largest volume
OF the past two weeks.
Short covering and bidding by
professionals accounted for most
of the bulge. Boardrooms were
v.I.aa4ly deserted due to the per
sistent heat wave. Commitments
were reinstated on the idea the
improved technical position of the
list might bring a fall rally if the
news permits. Brokerage clients
generally held all off pending more
light on the European and British
economic situations and because
of doubts regarding the domestic
business picture.
Stiffening prices succeeded early
irregularity with the ticker tape
speeding up at intervals. TheN
were subsequent slowdoWns but
gains of fractions to 2 or more
points predominated at the close.
The days total of. $50, 900 shares
