! rush to take radical action. Watch
i the situation calmly, and look for
1 the underlying trends rather than

Outlook For The Stock Market
All of the above indicates that
there will be a cooling off period
and, on the whole, the near-term
prospects for peace look better. If
the American people agree with
me, the price of the war stocks
should fall off, which would mean
a reduction in the Industrial Av-
. erage. It is possible that the Dow-
Jori.»s Industrial Average has al
ready seen its high for 1953.
