Stocks: To-day's upswing reversed the downward trend of the past ter days. The move in industrial issues appears to be in- dicate, in the absence of other news, that the market is in a temporarily soldout condition. Our view is that buying emphasis is justified in good oil, railroad. metal and merchandise issues for the time being. Business done: 5841,930,000 shares.
