 Generally. the leading shares were higher. Tn the bond market a block of $254,00O Baltimore 6 Ohio converti- bles changed hands. Southern Pacific convertfb1es and Interborough-M M etro- po1itans Were strong.

Slc- cess Of the state bond issue, reduction in discount rates by the Bank of Eng land and the Bank of Germany and the steady outside demand for stocks were obviously bullish factors. Trading far outstripped yesterdays volume for the corresponding period.
 Among specialtfes and high grade investment stoclxs there were gains of from to 5 points.
