Stock Rally Follows
Return Of Margins,
Caution Persists
By Victor Eubonk
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK; Jan. 18.-Heavy
early buying of stocks today followed
the restoration of margin trading
and, despite subsequent profit cash.
ing, market leaders finished a spotty
week generally on the upside.
Throughout the six sessions a cer-
tain amount of bidding was based on
the idea that the recent relapse
called for technical rally. Skeptics
regarding the economic picture,
taxes and labor problems, however,
continued to trim accounts from
Monday on and considerable irregu-
larity was the result. Falling staples
and consumers goods prices clouded
sentiment.
Early Gains Reduced.
Activity was pronounced at today's
opening with gains running to 2 or
more points. The pace slowed after
lively twenty minutes and ex-
treme advances were reduced in the
majority of cases at the close. Rails
were exceptionally narrow.
Brokerage quaFters were cheered
by the Federal Reserve Board action,
which came late yesterday, but the
thought was stressed that the re-
turn to rs per cent margins, effec-
tive February l, still would leave the
market in relatively thin" shape.
Transactions have been on a cash
basis since last January 21
1t was also suggested that the
Reserve ruling indicated that the
imitation peak may have passed and
that, henceforth, securities might
have to contend with a certain
amount of "def1ation psychology.
Numerous customers, consequently,
were quick to cash in on the early
swing.
The Associated Press 60-stock
composite was up 5 of point at
65.4 and for the week showed a gain
of a. OF 1874 issues registering,
broadest for any Saturday since
last April, 1885 rose and only 80
declined. Transfers of 100000
shares compared with 100000 week
ago and were top for a short ses-
sion since December 7. For the six
days the aggregate was 1896, ,120
shares against 5,146,110 the week
before.
Join in Recovery.
Gamers on the day of point or
so each were Allied Chemical at
173A, Schenley As, American Can 95,
Philip Morris 43, Goodrich 64A and
Douglas Aircraft 10. Fractionally
ahead were United States Steel,
General Motors, Chrysler, Sears
Roebuck, Montgomery Ward, Inter-
national Harvester, American Tele-
phone, Consolidated Edison, Kenne-
colt, General Electric, Southern
Pacific, Chesapeake g. Ohio and
Standard Oil New Jersey.
In the Curb modest plus signs
were held by American Gas, Fan
steel, Mesabi Iron, United Light and
Textron. Turnover here for the two
hours was 100000 shares versus l80,-
900 last Saturday.
Continued softness of major COM
modities again acted as a restraint
on stocks.

ways and means committee to take
over any further probes concerning
farm cooperatives.
The chances are that Ameri-
can farmers are more ruggedly
individual than any other class
Of citizens in this country. And
you cannot be rugged individ-
ualist and believe in either So
cialism or communism.
This being true, the fact that a
half million more farmers became
members Of cooperatives the past
year, bringing total membership to
100000, may be refutation of the
charge from the small business
committee that co-ops are either
socialistic or communistic.
On top of increased member
ships, although the number Of
co-ops remained the same at
1880, business of farm market
ing and purchasing co-ops was
upped almost half billion dol
lars from S5,645, 000, 900 to &c.
100000, 900.
Speaking Of cooperatives, the
golden jubilee of the Independent
Telephone association, held in Chi
cago on October IA, showed that
large proportion of 5000 independ-
ent companies are mutual or CO.
operative companies.

Better Roads Foreseen

Under the federal highway act Of
1914 enacted by the 18th congress,
approximately 350,8O9 miles of farm
to-market roads have been desig-
mated for inclusion in the federal
aid secondary road system.
The public roads administration
reports, however, that of this huge
mileage only about 1900 miles were
completed during the 1947 fiscal
year at a cost Of SIS, 1884 900, Of
which the federal government con-
tributed $28,768, 1906. At close of the
fiscal year, June 80, work was under
way on an additional 1870 miles
which, when completed, will cost
$27O, AGO. 84, of which the federal
government will pay S133, 535 SOL.
The act of 1914 provided ap-
preparations Of $50 million dol
lars in federal funds in each Of
the first three postwar years for
this class of farm-tO-market
roads and, according to federal
officials, it is expected that ap-
proximately 430, 900 miles of this
type of roads eventually will be
included in the system.
So it would seem that although
the machinery in this federal-state
matching road program is moving
somewhat slowly the prospects for
better farm roads are looking up.
POLITICAL FACTS
Only three Democrats bare been elect
ed to The presidency since The Grill War

dency like Theodore Roosepeh and Cool

Farm Fire Toll

In connection with the annual fire
prevention observance, the National
Board of Fire Underwriters points
out that annual destruction by fire
of farm and rural property amounts
to approximately 80 million dollars.
Increases in the use of gasoline
burning farm machinery and cleo
trical equipment have created addi-
tional fire hazards. Lightning. how
ever, continues to be the leading
cause for farm fires, being respon-
sible for one out of every three rural
blazes.

La.

MIAMI, Sept 19.-Some esti-
mates of hurricane damage
i'll the southerly areas of the
east and west coasts of Flor
ida run as high as $50 miIlion,
though conservative estimate
places the loss at between $25 and
$50 million.
Several million dollars of that
damage apply to the loss of crops
in the Everglades. Judging from
reports that have been received
here, the crops were complete
loss.
BY far the greater damage by
the storm was done in the east
coast sections. with Miami Beach
topping the list.
Fort Myers, which had been re-
ported to have suffered severe
damage. reported today that the
loss was only $l50,000. Further
news from Fort Myers said that
the center of the hurricane
struck 10 miles south of that city
and then began to turn to the
northwest.
News from New Orleans, before
communication were disrupted
in that city this morning, said
THAT the center of the hurricane
was headed at a point slightly to
the northwest, that winds in
New Orleans were then blowing
at IS miles an hour and were con-
itinuing to increase. The New Or
