New York. Doc. 23. For the first
time since Tuesday of last week, the
Stock exchange witnessed a sub
stantial and general recovery. Every
one ot the business days between the
two dates had been marked bv a
downward tendency of prices and
by more or less numerous points ot
special weakness, and manv impor
tant shares, both industrial and rail
way, had fallen 10 points or mor
during that period, on top of th.e ex
tensive declines which had preceded
it On the face of things, therefore,
today's recovery need have caused
no surprise, even when the buying
came largely, as it did, from previous
ispeciilarors for the decline.
Whatever the course of the Market
is to be in the next few. days, the
significance of today's ' revery,
which ranged between 2 and 6 points
in a very jonsiderableimrnber '
stocks, was'prof that the actual de
mand for stocks was not connjer
halanced in its efect on prices, either
by forced liquidation ipr tv fresh
sales of ' professional v speculators.
" 'Move Slalnly I'pward. i-
The market moxed In one direction
practically all. day. It opened with over.
rlr:ht advances- nnd closed around the
hlhost, after a total trading which again,
for the third succetajve day.- went beyond
, An,wAnn uv.nrra with the number ci set-
utetl between the indujtrla, and railway
share r, T$?rovery
helrg, as a rule, pro.
Twrt'.oned to Von alecllnes o( the pact few
rkt. as a" whole, did
not show the eame vigorous tendency to
recover athe atock marKet. prfocs for
I iberty bonds advanced anarpiy, rcn-uuim
npdouhtedly both the removal It snecu
lntlvo pressure and the p,uttlng-li of gen
... i uK.ri it nnneired tnet
the decline was checked. The change in
i.-n ....( nWrinnohe-e. as 'a rcu'l
of a day' halt in the prolonged decline
end reversnl of the movement, wes in
act, uni'suel'.y marked; Jhe financial ma--krts
d-lfted many days ago Into a posi
tion wher sentiment rather than fact r
reason was th contro'Hng lnflaence It
could hardly be doubted that today a re
covery even In grain and cotton was a
direct result of thfl better-taellng In the1
Wall atroet markets.
Tt heat Srrcager.
Tho B-cent recovery In wheat fcd other
causes, among them a continued larso
export- demand and the passage by the
house of the'so-callfd emergency taiff
bill for lmupslng Ulsh protective duties
n wheat anS ither a-rrlcultural products.
Tt is difficult to Imarire,. however, that
even the prows-d prohibitive 30 c per
hnrhet duty on wheat wdu'd profoundljtr
fect siiprfy and demand condition In that
tr?de. In the n'ne itiontha of 1920 for
wl-loh we have the full r-nors. our im
mirts of Vheet was 6,200 000 bushels, at
S&nnml with an export of 130.000.000
fliwda Is vsrally cited aa the freln
nToducfT against whom we urgentlv need
protection; but In the same, nine months
we exported 1.1.000.000 bushel of whea.
to Crriada aloue( ag" nst the 4. 400,000 re
ceived from heA Few people-, however,
M?rioi's'v expect the house measure to be
accented by the senate and enaced.

At thaBank of F.ngland. the
ratio of the baling reserve to public
