ing when Easter sales begin to
attain momentum.
Business loans by banks dropped
$50 million-not much money as
bank loans go-but still a re-
spectacle amount and at a time
when seasonal merchandising and
other business activity normally
creates a good demand for short
term credit.
Business bankruptcies were the
highest in six weeks. How much
of the increase of AZ cases over
the previous week was due to
conditions created by the coal
strike. however, was a guess. Fail
ures are still far below normal in
any peacetime late winter.
The price of coal-both hard
and soft-Went up nearly every
where almost simultaneously with
first shipments mined under
terms of the new contract that
added up to $1.40-a-day package
increase for the diggers. In some
places it was a modest Is cents
ton, others 80 to 40 cents; in
still others it went up SO cents
or more.
What higher coal costs will
mean to the general price level of
consumer goods remains to be de-
termined because each manufact-
urer, professor and distributor has
his own cost setup and individual
competitive position to consider
before making a decision.

Stock Advance Adds
About SIS Billion
TO Values in Week
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK. Mar. 18.-The
1949-50 bull market scored the
largest advance of it's career this
week.
The market has been rising
since mid-June. But not since
a week in October. -948, have prices
on average gained so much.
The market value of all stocks
listed on the exchange increased
by around SIS billion. Leading
stocks were Boosted Is cents to
SO a share and in some cases more.
Most of the advance was on
Wednesday, when a surge of buy
ing power gave the market its
biggest lift in nearly two yeas.
Despite prof1t-taking activity,
most of the gains were retained.
Reaction a Possibility.
The improvement in prices
gave the financial district
weighty question to think over:
Has the market gone too high
without a corrective reaction-or
will it continue to rise?
Ever since June IA prices have
gone up without serious inter-
ruption. A lot of brokers predict
relapse, but eventually a re-
sumption of a drive ahead. Some
of these brokers are advising their
clients to maintain stable por-
ton of thier accounts in cash.
This view of the trend was en-
phasized with the latest figures
on the short interest issued by the
exchange after the close Satur-
day. The report disclosed that
the short interest increased 223.-
258 shares to 2,573,569, the largest
total In II years.
On the other side of the fence
are those optimists who foresee
moderate decline in prices, at
the worst, before the market
starts going ahead again.
Agree on Long Term Trend.
Both groups seem to be pretty
well agreed that the long-term
trend is upward.
Probably the most notable fea-
ture of this weeks rise was the in
terest shown in top-grade invest
ment-issues, stocks such as Ameri-
can Telephone, Consolidated Edi-
son, General Motors, General
Electric and such. The record
indicated that it was an invest
ment market, not speculative
market.
The public did not get into the
market on any scale. A good part
of the buying support came from
investment trusts.
So-called "big money" too. was
being lured into the market by
the currently high yields offered
by many blue-chip issues.
Saturdays market was high
lighted by furry of demand for
automobile stocks. Chrysler.
strike bound since January Is,
advanced 70 to 667s, just under
its 1850 top. Studebaker rose 70
to 30A, General Motors IS to
7712, Packard 1s to 37s, and Hud-
son "a to 1412.
A total of 795 issues changed
hands. of which 322 advanced
and 238 declined. Gains and
losses were mostly in small frac-
tons. s ..- ~
The Associated Press average

whatever sets and horses hap
pened not to be doing anything

And that is how it is that Re
turn of the Frontiersman" came
to the Metropolitan the last few
days in June of 1850, plus the
first few of July.
The most interesting thing
about the picture in its final
Technicolor form is not what you
would expect at all.
It is the girl named Julie Lon
don who plays the lead.
Miss London, who might be a
granddaughter of Jack London, or
anybody else's granddaughter for
that matter, is not only girl who
cannot act but looks as if she is
determined not to. She is pretty
enough, and the right shape. but
she moves through her role like a
girl who resented being awakened
out of a nap.
The particular object of her
resentment is MacRae who, at
least technically. wins her heart

riage that starts in as low an emo

sible that Miss London's lack of
enthusiasm for MacRae is due to
the circumstance that she does
not ever learn that he is a singer.
His two vocal numbers in the
Metropolitan picture come before
they have met.
Miss London's career will be
worth watching-to see whether
she really was forced into the
movies against her will.
It is a feeble fable that Miss
London and her male colleagues
work on in Return of the From

plays the son of a reforming
sheriff Jack Holt). He is a good
son. with intentions every bit as
noble as his fathers. His luck,
however, is bad.
Despite his innocence, he faces
successfully the charges of saloon
brawling, murder, and finally bank
robbery. While he is being chased
by posses led by his father for
each of these offenses, he is in
turn chasing the fellow who is
framing him. This results in
