ancial interests came to the sup
port of the stock market TO-DAY
and arrested the decline. Buying or
ders sent TO London for American
shares caused advances averaging
point there This higher range OF
prices and supporting orders placed
by the same interests caused bet
ter tone TO prevail at the opening IN
Wallst. Initial prices were irregular
with a majority OF stocks showing
gains. Some losses were recorded
because OF the closing out OF some
holdings owing TO impaired margins
Reading was the strong feature
with a gain OF ga points In the
opening AS the session progressed
its strength became impressive and
At the end OF the first hour OF trading
It had advanced more than three
points. Its strength had sympa-
thetic effect on the balance OF the
list and all losses were wiped out and
replaced with gains averaging two
points. National Lead was weak and
declined a point because OF the an
nouncement from Pittsburg that II
would follow the lead OF the United
States Steel corporation in establish
ing an open market In the lead trade.
National Lead has been holding the
umbrella for some time. but the small
independents began cutting. Ameri-
can Smelling & Refining stock declin-
ed because il owns control OF Nation
al Lead Both these issues recovered
later with the balance Of the list.
