lRn 1he Associated Pressl

The third cold wave within week moved into the north central part of the nation today as the death toll of the second, still gripping the south and east, reached 60
 A weather bureau forecaster said the new sub-zero air mass, which moved southward from Can- ada into the great plainS-farther west than the first two--would keep the midwest and upper Allan tic coastal region frigid at least until midweek.
 The new waves effect was not expected to be felt in the south eastern part of the country, how ever, and probably will not bring lower temperatures than already have been experienced in the cold wave series.
 Where It Is Cold
 Watertown, s. D., had the na- tion's lowest official temperature this morning--27 below zero. The Ohio valley had second success sive bitter sub-zero night with the official low of 6 reported at Columbus, O., and Louisville, Ky, and much lower unofficial readings in hilly southeastern Ohio. The northeastern states had low of 20 at Binghamton, N. Y, with -l2 at Albany, N. r. I'll at Portland, Me. and -3 at Hartford, Conn.
 Moderates in South
 Moderating of temperatures in the still chilly south was reported with Mobile. Ala, which record ed 22 above Sunday having a 34- degree minimum today. Milder weather was expected to reach the South Atlantic Coast by Tuesday
 Another storm, developing in the southwest, had brought snow and freezing rain to Texas and was moving eastward across the south ern states, already chilled by snow and sub-ireezing temperatures over the weekend
 No Relief In Sight
 Meanwhile, little or no relief was in sight for New England and oth- CT eastern seaboard states where some points were digging out Of an accumulation of snow measur- ing more than 20 inches.
 Chill weather also continued on the West Coast. with temperatures generally in the 20's. Fresno. Call ifornia, had an early low of A today. and San Francisco AT.
 While the rest of the nation shiv- cred yesterday. public beaches Tn Miami, Fla. reported their largest turnout of the season with a &;n- ny 75-degree day.
 RAIN OVER PACn-v
 SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 26.-tR-- A disturbance moving eastward i'll the Pacific near the Aleutians was described by the weather bureau today as a possible producer of rain for parched California farmlands, which in the rich San Joaquin valley have gone rainless 36 days.
 Southern California received it's first-just trace-precipitation since Dec. 29 and the weather bureau forecast scattered showers.

Brokerage quarters saw two fac

Confidence Increases.
Wall Street seems pretty we'll con-
vinced that it's December rally is
making headway. For the past two
weeks the market has closed higher
than in the preceding week despite
tax selling, which at times achieved
sizable proportions. Tax selling is
expected to be cleaned up within
the next 10 days or so and at the
same time-barring major political
or foreign development-reinvest-
ment and speculative buying is ex-
pected to increase.
The general run Of prices, of
course, has a long way to go to get
back to prediction levels. In late
October the market, as measured by
the Associated Press average of so
stocks, hit a projection high of II.
