in part:

Market Still Quiet
Small Change In Prices

New York, Mar, 3l.-The New York
Evening Suns financial review today
said:
In the absence of important Mexican
or submarine developments the market
continued in waiting attitude and
there was little of interest or import
ance in price movements. Dealings
were nighly professional as a natural
result of the many uncertainties which
initiate against enlargement of public
buying. Such activity as there was,
was centered in few issues. War
stocks and industrial specialties were
relegated to a secondary position fa-
vor of copper stocks, whsch improved
under the leadership of KennecOtt, Mi
ami and Anaconda. Prices were not
considerably changed in either direction
at the opening.
Although the tone was somewhat bet
ter, trading was narrow and hesitating.
There was disappointingly narrow
market among railway snares, which
were restrained by the trainmens' de-
mands. A moderate increase in activ-
ity was noted in war stocks and special
ties in the late trading under the lead
ership of Crucible Steel

eer Americans were on board all of
these ships.
The president and secretary Lansing
hope to obtain evidence from United

conclusions can be based upon it. There
have been no advices from Ambassador
Gerard in Berlin and this is contribut-
ing to the present difficulties. The un-
certainty as to what really damaged
