WALL STREET CHATTER NEW YORK (UPD - Analyst James Dines says the best ad vice he can oflcr at this time is to regard December as an unusual month. Dines feels that only traders should be active at this time and that both long and short positions are Justified. Arthur Wiescnberger & Co. says that the rise to new high ground has expanded the bullish feelings towards the stock mar ket and that tltc recent surge of increased confidence is a re flection of this psychological factor rather than a "per so" interpretation of the Dow theory. J. W. Sparks Co. expects a drive to the 780 level in the Dow-Jones industrial average over the near term. Thomson & McKinnon says that perhaps the best indication of how tilings are shaping up for 1964 Is in the large number of optimistic predictions com ing from corporate circles. .Ralph Rolnem of Harris. Up ham & Co. feels that gains in 1964 are most likely to be best in some of Die formerly neglect ed or depressed sections such as chemicals, steels, metals, rubbers, sulphurs, machinery, papers, aluminum, aerospace and rails.
