The Formal report went to the
Government Printing Office last
night after the three Democratic
members of the subcommittee
completed and submitted their
minority findings.
Report Due Soon.
Senator Potter's individual
views were obtained in advance
of the expected release of the
formal subcommittee report to-
morrow or Thursday.
The Michigan Senator found
that:

committee counsel who resigned

NEW YORK, Sept. 18.-The
stock market went back up into
new record ground this week
after q reaction and recovery
lasting a month.
The whole thing was accom-
plished with comparative ease
and with little strain except on
occasion.
The Associated Press average
of so stocks closed the week at
$13510. That new 1854 high
is 20 cents above the previous
mark established August 20 and
is the best since October %, 1929.
The market for several months
has been passing through a series
of new 25-year highs.
There was another notable
event this Week-the current bull
market drive was one year old. A
year ago the market hit bottom
after a long fall. 1t was simply
sold out. The rise that followed
carried through all obstacles with
scarcely pause until a month
ago.
Many brokers are not too sure
that the present peak is firm.
They would not be surprised If
the market backed and filled
between the current high and
the low registered on the recent
dip.

actor in the book, going down

more often than up. This month
so far has confounded the his
torical averages. AS matter of
fact. the market on average has
declined only once this month.
But the brokers look at the long
term record and say that Sep
tember must be approached
cautiously.
That caution shows up in the
high degree Of selectivity in the
market, the manner in which
traders and others exploit spe-
cial situations involving mergers
and other good news develop
ments, and the revolving leader
ship on rallies.
The five most active issues this
