July 23 —Aided by short covering and renewed pool operations in special shares, stocks rose to within striking distance of last week’s high levels during the morning dealings today. A sizable increase in trading ac-, tivity accompanied the further rise in the market, which attained almost spectacular violence in a few issues. Gains around noon ranged from 1 to 7 points, J. I. Casc'showing the maximum advance. Shorts Run to Cover High-grade issues like Steel common, American Can. General Motors and Eastman Kodak were leaders of the advance, rising 1 to 4 points at the expense of an overcrowded short interest, while heavy activity accompanied further strength in Radio, which attained a new high on the current recovery. General Electric was turned over in large blocks around its highest levels of the recovery and Vanadium held the greater part of its ealy 2%-point advance. In the less active issues Ingersoll - Rand slumped half a dozen points. Uniform strength was maintained in the first two hours, although some selling attracted by the initial bulge in the list chacked the movement momentarily. Gains Are Held Buying of United Etates. Steel was particularly significant, the issue bettering last week’s high of 168, a gain of more than 3 points. Auburn turned against an overextended short interest, running up more than 7 points. Other motors w’ere improved with General Motors changing hands in large blocks. Almost every group participated in the forward movement, with oils showing less hesitancy than recently. Standard Oil of New Jersey was turned over in large blocks tt anew high on the recovery and principal public utilities were taken in large blocks at rising prices. Consolidated Gas was a strong feature of the latter group.

Major Herbert Fletcher declared police investigation shows children have been admitted to the theater and that theater managers have been ordered to "clean up” their shows. Judge Cameron indicated he would not ask for a court performance. OFFERS $10,000,000 GIFT American YYould Present Vast Sum to Great Britain’s Social Education. Bu United Press LONDON, July 23.

In the Stock Market
(Bv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. July 23—Not, for a long time have we been favored with such a favorable array of weekly trade statistics. Increased carloadings, better steel operations, liberal wheat exports, and unusually satisfactory oil statistics give us the most encouraging indication of a changing trend in business that we have seen for some time. Even more gratifying are the excellent earnings reports coming from our larger corporations, considering what had been expected. Rumors are persistent that the United States Steel Corporation may decide to declare an extra dividend at the coming meeting. It is to be recalled that a declaration of a small extra by the steel corporation brought about a definite turn ten years ago for the better in business generally and security markets in particular. Similar action at this time would no doubt do a great deal to accelerate the recovery hi business. Allowing for the usual normal periods of hesitation, we feel the stock market trend is definitely toward higher prices.

Bu United Prrsg CHICAGO, July 23.—Wheat held in a narrow range on the Board of Trade today, but closed with fractional losses. There was persistent buying by houses with eastern connections on dips and heavy hedging pressure from the southwest on bulges, causing sharp fluctuations but in the range of around 1 cent. Corn was again very strong after a weak opening with more damage reports being received, but closed unevenly as did oats. Liverpool Weakens At the close wheat was V* to % cent lower, corn was •% cent lower to % cent higher and oats was V* cent lower to % cent higher. Provisions were steady. The nearby month at Liverpool weakened to close U cent lower, but the deferred deliveries continued to show good strength and at the last were ] i to % cent higher. The estimate of 20,000,000 bushels of hard winters sold for export had very little effect as this is merely a compilation of daily totals. Cash prices were Vi cent lower. Receipts were 580 cars. * Corn Strongest Corn climbed rapidly to anew high on the present movement when December touched 78% cents a bushel at midsession with all months more than 1 % cents higher. The opening was uncertain due to rains in Kansas and Oklahoma, but the government report was decidedly bullish and indicated an urgent need of rain over the entire belt. There was no rain in the central part of the belt last night, but the forecast was for scattered showers in Illinois, lowa and Indiana. The cash trade was very strong. Cash prices were 1 cent highbr. Receipts were 140 cars. Oats showed a fractional gain at midmorning in sympathy with corn, but there was little activity on news. Cash prices were unchanged. Receipts were 24 cars.
