Market SAY DEALERS UCAICIS UCOLIIUCU LIC Noslarc docerihad tha record gain as 'technical'.

The panic conditions of Tuesday had pulled down prices SO fast that many 'institutions' felt that bargains could be bought.

A related factor is so-called 'bear' selling, which was widespread on previous days. The 'bear' operator borrows shares and sells them when he expects the market to fall.

When the time comes to return the borrowed shares, he buys replacements at the new, lower, price. Speculators working this way helped to accelerate the fall in prices earlier this week.

It was certainly important on the London Stock Exchange yesterday, since the account ends today, when all deals have to be settled.

Nobody on Wall St could think of any reason why the sagging of confidence which has hit the market during May should end at this time.

Nixon's dinner with business leaders at the White House on Wednesday night was not expected to reassure anyone.

The IOS crisis took another turn for the worse, and Nixon's declarations on the rapid ending of the IndoChina war generated more uneasiness.

Rather closer to reality was the speech of the Earl of Airlie, managing director of the merchant bankers J. Schroder Wagg.

'We now have on our hands what is probably the most serious financial crisis in postwar years. I sense an almost all-pervasive uncertainty about the economic outlook and mounting loss of confidence within the financial community, he said. evaluation schemes ers, of increased productivity and of savings in labour costs.

The magazine 'Dataweek' explains:

'A master file is created and calculations are made for each employee on the payroll which reveal important values and ratios in the existing wage The master file records each employee with details of job type, proposed grade, current wage system earnings and rate figures.' It adds: The system can spotlight information about particular employee or group of employees. System programmes impose no limitaon the number of employees analysed.' course, wage levels do not depend on the calculations of this man or that machine, but stem from the constant struggle of the working class to make the employers pay a decent wage.

However the aim here is to put wages on a 'scientific' basis which is said to be above class differences and so is able to reach 'impartial' decisions on any aspect of wages and working.

This is a complete fraud.

Computers act on the information fed into them by the employer-in this case the system is primed to produce a job-evaluation system aimed at increasing output and stopping the rise of wages.

A similar method is used in most work-study schemes where workers are told that they cannot contest final time standards because these have been fixed 'by science'.

Even more ominous is the use of computers, described here, to build up a dossier on every aspect an employee's working life.

This is a further example of how capitalism takes scientific achievements which could immeasurably benefit mankind and uses them solely for increasing the exploitation of the working class in the name of profit. slander
