NEW YORK, Jan. S.-The
great bull market in stocks was
pounded down sayagely this
week in its first real test. and 1t
rebounded vigorously from the
hard selling blows.
On Friday, stocks retraced 40
per cent Of the average loss Of
the two previous days. Prices
now stand around the levels Of
two weeks ago.
On Tuesday after. the stock
markets on the East and West
coasts had closed, the Federal
Reserve Board in Washington
raised margin requirements to so
per cent from so per cent.
There is relatively little trad
ing on margin in stocks today.
The order applied only to new
purchases.
The next day the stock market
cracked wide open. It looked as
though every one wanted to sell
at once. Actually they didn't.

Stocks sPounded Downin Week,
Rebound Vigorously Lows

The great bulk Of investors
stood pat. Selling continued on
Thursday ON an even greater
scale with volume at So million
shares. greatest in more than Is
years. The average, however,
was down only $1.60.
One interesting observation
came out Of the break-there
was little actual money lost.
Many of those who sold their
stocks, brokers said, had SUBJ
stantial paper profits because
Of the long and steep 16-month
rise. When they sold, most
probably missed peak prices. but
they turned handsome paper
profits into handsome paper dol
lars.
Those who sold out stood on
the sidelines to await the time
when quoted prices would sink
to bargain levels. That point
came quickly. At the opening
on Friday there was q terrific
buying rush, and prices scared.
There was another buying rush
at the close, and the market
finished right at the top Of the
day.
Brokers aren't saying that the
decline has ended. They say
1t has been arrested. There is
a distinct possibility that the
market will do what is called
testing the lows. In other words,
1t could dip once more to de-
termine whether there Is un-
derlying buying support before
1t takes OF again in its old buh
manner.
And what If it keeps on going
down? As one broker remarked,
then you have . new ball game.

Mrs. Hobby Meets Her Critics

Recently a correspondent on
the White House beat pub
lished a story that Mrs. Hobby
would soon resign because her
husband, Publisher William P.
Hob by Of the Houston Post,
is i'll. Mrs. Hobby has been
around Washington long
enough to know that such
stories sometimes represent a
hint from the White House
that a resignation would be
acceptable.
She was beautifully gowned
and groomed, as usual. as she
faced the Senators, but fatigue
and tension showed in the
smile that was a little too
bright. a little too fixed. She
has, of course, been working
very long hours to get her
program in shape.
At one point shewas clearly
tempted to stand up for her
States rights philosophy. SEN
ator Hill of Alabama was bor-
ing in on the voluntary aspects
OF her new plan. Repeatedly
he forced her to admit that
she knew little Of the States
powers and plans and had no
real control over them.
Perhaps" Mrs. Hobby be-
gan and checked herself. Per
haps," :" she said again, her chin
a little higher. Then in a rush
it came: Perhaps I just be-
lieve that State officials do
have responsibility and can't
believe they won't do right"

divided because a rearmed and
reunited Germany would be
the biggest threat the
Communists would ever face.
Only if Russia is defeated in
the cold war and believes she
can control the German gov
ernment and legislature by
subversion from within is re-
unlf1cation expected to materi-
alize. Hence, there is the
most intense curiosity to see
how the Soviet Union operates
now inside Austria and whether
she will keep hands off as the
treaty pledges her to do.
8. The Yugoslav situation
should be watched with eyes
wide open, because there is
evidence that Tito's hand is
being forced by Communists
inside his country who are

9. There is a serious Short
age of noncomissioned as well
as commissioned officers for
the new German army in the
right age groups. Also. build
ing an army from scratch
presents a most difficult sit
uation. and CONSUMPTION will
not come until after the train
ing staff has been obtained
from the ranks of volunteers.
10. There is unanimous
agreement that Germ any
should have a national security
council patterned somewhat
after the one in the United
States, but with industrial
leaders, political leaders and
military chiefs working closely
together. The advantage of a
permanent secretariat and staff
to insure continuity is also
urged.
Altogether, it may be said
that the West German military
men are preparing for their
new responsibilities in an ear
nest and sincere manner. They
feel that at last they are full
f1edged partners of the West
ern democracies.

West German Military Men See Need
For Close Cooperation With West

BONN, May 17.-Here is the
place where they have the most
realistic view of what is hap
pening in Europe today. They
have no illusions about the
Soviet strategy in neutralizing
Austria, and they haven't been
persuaded that it will neces-
sarily be followed by the neu-
tralization Of Germany.
On the contrary. they feel
here that the most dangerous
phase of the cold war is at
hand and that 1t is more than
ever imperative for the West
ern democracies to work
closely with the West German
government.
This correspondent had a
long talk today with a realist
Gen. Adolph Heusinger. who
is regarded as the ablest mill
tary man in. West Germany.
He was chief of planning oper-
ations during the last war for
the German army. He is the
kind who keeps out of politics
and he furnished effectively
the military advice requested
of him. Today the principal
work Of rebuilding a German
army falls upon him. !
Other military men were in
terviewed also by this writer,
and it is possible to set down q
composite impression Of their
views, which is about as fol-
lows:
/. Despite two wars, it is
one of = the miracles of the
present day that there are
such intimate and friendly
relations between the men who
head up the military side of
the two countries and between
the American soldiers and the
German people.

alone viii lose something like
$50 million schillings yearly
through withdrawal of Amer
ican troops. Smaller but still
substantial amounts will be
lost when the British evacuate
the provinces Of Styria and
Carinthia.
Chancellor julius Raab and
his government, while elated
that their country is to become
independent once more, have
no illusions about the difficult
ties it will face Immediately.
He hopes to offset the losses
from. withdrawal Of American,
British and French troops and
meet payments to the USSR
in two ways. Cd He wants
to make A u S t r 1 a into a
tourists paradise and draw in
come as Switzerland does
from summer resorts and win
ter sports: and (2) he expects
benevolent Uncle Sam to find
ways to make up at least the
deficit caused by treaty pay
ments to Russia.
What concerns diplomatic
observers most is the future of
the country as a long-range
proposition. Whispers are
heard already that Moscow
intends to establish q Danubian
confederation including all the
countries bordering that river.
Supporting these is the fact
that the Kremlin leaders have
decided to mend their political
and economic fences In Yugo-
slavia. I

school. He knows how to take

advantage Of a favorable situa-
ton. He has never broken
"ideologically" with his former
masters in the Kremlin. When
he was unceremoniously kicked
out Of the Comintern he found
ready acceptance-without any
strings-in the less exclusive
Western club. This the Krem-
lin apparently never expected.
America and Britain rushed
military equipment and hard
cash. thus frustrating Stalin's
plans to destory Titoism by Q
Bulgarian. Romanian and
Hungarian invasion.
Over seven years Yugoslavia
became one OF the foremost
powers In the Balkans. Tito
had only to ask and economic
and military assistance was
rushed without questions from
Washington and London. But
throughout those years his
heart continued to belong to
daddy" in Moscow. At no time
did he change the communistic
pattern of Yugoslavia or relent
his atheistic policies, even as
a sop to the West.
When Moscow realized that
its bullying policies were in
vain, 1t decided to appeaSe.
And we are about to witness
a remarkable feat. The top
men in the Kremlin-Bulganin.
Mikoyan and Khrushchev-are
going to pay a reconciliation
visit to Comrade Tito In his
own lair at Belgrade.
The Kremlin does not need
Yugoslavia as q military ally.
But it is essential for its plans
to establish q Danubian con-
federation as a neutral" belt.
Tito's country as well as Aus
tria are essential for this pur-
pose. And unpleasant as IL
may sound, the Austrian re-
public will flnd it difficult to
wiggle out Of such q situation.

about the peace meeting here

talk after which the chairman
announced that the party
would welcome the return OF
