Main. TIM BERLIN! INN North aide of Indian Lake Is now serving dinners every day but Moo, Tuna. Ph. Dowatlae IMS. BY LEWIS HANEY PrefeMer Of Economics, New York Unlvertitr Clearly there has been some burgeoning of speculative interest In stocks with spring weather.

JU the sap has run up, so has the volume of trading in the low- priced speculative favorite, from Packard Motors and American Airlines to Pepsi Cola and International Tel. and Tel. The average of the most active stocks each day has shown a tendency to draw higher, showing that speculative traders are favoring the long side. As long as this sort of thing goes on, we are not likely to see much of a decline in the average of all stocks. But a consideration of the market's action on the run-up last week hardly much hope of a good "spring rise." Had such a rise been in the cards, is it not probable that running start given by the margin reduction would have carried through better? First, note that the rally last Tuesday (March 29) merely carried average prices back to the "gap" level left by the break on Feb.

5. There the rally stopped. This strengthens the thought that the upswing was chiefly short covering. One should reflect that on the rise the market must have lost technical strength. Partly through weak speculative buying.

note that the rally last week merely carried to the descending line that marks the successively lower tops of last July, October, January, and now March. If this rally is not resumed (and of that there is no indication at this writing) the formation will not look favorable for any spring rise. Third, and probably most significant, note the fact that there has been no advance in prices at all in proportion to the considerable run-up in trading volume that developed last week. The rally was a Shares Display Lack Of Trend Changes Small In Slow Trading NEW YORK, April 7-AP)-The stock market searched for a direction again today. Gains and losses were thoroughly scrambled.

Changes either way amounted to well under a point in most cases. Trading started at a languid pace and showed no inclination to expand as the session progressed. Even the utility group, which advanced yesterday to a new high for the year, failed to attract much attention. Higher prices were paid for-General Motors, Packard, Goodrich, Caterpillar. Douglas Aircraft, Southern California Edison, Internation al.

Nickel, American Can, Johns-Manville, Union Pacific, Twentieth Century-Fox, and Alaska In the minus column were U. S. Steel, Bethlehem Steel, TJ. S. Rubber.

Montgomery Ward, J. I. Case, Lockheed, Consolidated Edison, American Smelting, Du Pont, Philip Morris, S. Gypsum, N. Y.

Central, Chesapeake cfc Ohio, and American Air Lines. Corporate bonds moved narrowly. Grains Advance In Active Trade CHICAGO, April 7-(AP)-An active trade developsd in grains today following "announcement of the administration's proposed new farm program. Despite the activity, price changes were not very great. Announcement of the new program, which still must get through Congress, came only a lew minutes before the market opened.

Local traders had little time to study the proposals before they were busy in the grain pits. During early dealings oats showed more firmness than any other cereal. Later deliveries of corn also came up with a display of These contracts calling for delivery late this year would be most influenced by the proposed farm program, traders said. Wheat near the end of the first hour was tt-Ti cent higher, May corn was higher, May gl.34'4, and oats were H-7 higher. May 714.

Soybeans were unchanged to a cent higher, May 13.32. Local Forecast (By U. S. Weather Bureau at Chicago for this area of (he Michigan fruit belt.) Partly -cloud and nleasant this afternoon, high 80. Fair with little temperature change tonight and Friday, low tonight 36, high Friday 53, Northwest winds 15-20 mph this afternoon becoming mostly northerly 10-15 Friday.

LOWER MICHIGAN Fair tonight and Friday. No decided temperature change. UPPER MICHIGAN Partly cloudy tonight and Friday; little temperature change As a whole, the week's performance tends toward the conclusion that it will take a lot of buying to put prices up much and keep them up. My guess Is that there may be enough speculative interest, to gether with hopes of government spending (as an offset to lack of private spending) to prevent mucn of a reaction. A little further at tempt at a "spring rise" would not be surprising.But the more fun damental news of business ia not yet favorable.

So stocks, despite then-relative cheapness, seem likely to drift somewhat lower. The best action is likely to be found in high-grade mine stocks, aircraft, stocks (benefited by arm ament expenditures) and utility hnldinir-eomDanv Dreierred stocKS i helped by the opposition to New (Deal radicalism. In my opinion, we can now count upon the complete failure of (1) the Truman tax increase and of (2) the Truman demand for war-time powers. Also, we can count on large government spending for armament, foreign aid, and domestic pump priming. The business recession shows every indication of being orderly.

Also, a good many high-grade stocks are cheap by any ordinary standards of earnings and yield. Thus, no large, sustained downward, move no severe bear market is at all probably. But a business recession is still under way. (The rise in gold stocks is a symptom of recession.) Bonds make little or no progress. Outside of gold stocks and preferred issues, there are few new highs for the year, while a number of significant new lows are being made in tne metals and steel groups.

So "caution" should still be the word. N. Y.
