QUESTIONNAIRE IS CAUSE OF FUROR IN STOCK MARKET Conservative Brokers Surprised by Efforts to Depress Leading Issues. The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK. March 27.—Conservative brokerage opinion was surprised over the furor created by the exchange questionnaire, which, though not a regular formality, is sent out in good markets and bad. But the professional contingent used it as a pretext for forcing stocks down on Monday's close, though it was found exceedingly difficult to bring out stocks on the decline and today's early market showed a decidedly better tone. First Hour Stocks had another slump around 10:30 on selling which appeared to represent liquidation of marginal accounts. But the general list showed some rallying power at the start of the second hour, fractional recoveries taking place in Studebaker, American Locomotive, American Can and other speculative leaders. The comeback was started by the more optimistic feeling regarding the conference of governors of the Federal reserve banks at Washington. Second Hour Additional stocks gave indication of rallying power around noon. Oils had a better resistance under the influence of a sharp advance in Phillips Petroleum, which moved up, reflecting the expectation of a stock dividend in the late spring. Maryland recovered In anticipation of an'increase in the dividend rate or an extra payment before the close of the year. Noon Hour Stocks made no further progress on the rally in the early afternoon. Sugars acted best. Rubber stocks have not discounted the recent general ad vance of 10 per cent in tire prices which has not tended to curtail demand. Regardless of what happens to auto production in the last of the year there are now sufficient machines on the roads to insure replacements demands of upwards of 30,0"<*.0i>0 tires a year aside from requirements of auto makers. Twenty active industrial stocks Monday averaged 102.36, off 92 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 5T.69. off .109 nor cent.

NEW LEFT TURN PLAN WILL BE TRIED BY CITY Police Hope to Solve Traffic Congestion by Lane System, Anew plan to aid motorists making left turns in narrow streets was tried today at Meridian and Sixteenth Sts., on order of Traffic Captain Michael Glenn. A zone, wide enough for one car and long enough to admit several, was marked off on the right hand side of the streets approaching the intersection. Motorists desiring to make the left turn were required to drive into this zone and await signal of the traffic officer before coming ..out into the street into which the turn was to made. Under the present ieft-turn plan cars come to the center of the intersection and head partly in the direction they intend to turn, awaiting the traffleman’s signal. The new plan: Car comes west in Sixteenth St. destring to turn south. Stops in lane on north side of Sixteenth St. flush with sidewalk on east side of Meridian St. North and south traffic clears, traffic man signals and car turns into Sixteenth St. and proceeds. Glenn said the plan is working well in New York City and if successful at the trial corner will tie use! at several otiier points.
