The stock markets initial response
20 the address OF the British Premier
defining the attitude OF his government
toward Gcrmany's proposal OF peace
negotiations was sweeping advance
Of TO 3 points in prominent issues,
followed almost Immediately By re-
verssl OF as much or more.
On the setback, which was popularly
attributed to a combination of profit
taking, short selling and liquidation b.
bewildered investors. quotations fell in
many instances to within hsiling dis
TANGO " last weeks lowest levels. In
fact, some Of the more speculative
shares, notably Utah Copper, Central
Leather, some Of the motors and their
subsidiaries, and Atlantic, Gulf G. West
Indies, established new minimums for
tho current downward movement.
Rails again resisted pressure, though
less active than last week, and finished
the session at variable but net gains.
They proved almost the sole exception
10 the general trend, being again forti-
fed by reports OF al early settlement
OF existing differences between execu-
tives and employees.
Selling was most unrestrained IN the
final hour which also witnessed lowest
I prices Of the session. The ease with
which prices rebounded to points OIL
short covering was In itself regarded IS
proof OF the extent to which profess
sional operations contributed to the
extreme declines.
United States Steel furnished more
than its usual quota to the days opern-
lions, the turnover in that stock ap-
proximsting $4,000 shares, or slmos
one-third OF the whole. This exceeded
by more than tenfold the offerings o.
any other issue.
Aside from another shading OF Inter.
national Issues, the bond market failed
IN any marked essential TO reflect the

Eat while you can, you oyster fans.
II little bad weather comes this
way you are liable to have TO DO with
out your fsvorite dish, according 70
the oyster dealers.
Oysters arc higher now than they
were at any time last year. and. the
dealers assert, much harder to get.
Shell oysters cannot be bought by
tho bushei. and the cost per barrel has
reached the ~ mark. while last year
at this time they could be had for
from f3.25 to s3.7b. Tho highest point
reached last year was but little above
this. Tho dealers are forced to sell
at the same rates which prevailed last
year, that In 81 q bushel. or $3.50 q
barrel. This offers small profit for
the dealer whom the expense of labor
In taken into consideration.
Shocked oyestors show n like In.
crease TO the dealers, costing them
from $40 TO S1.5o a gallon. These
are also sold at last years prices, 81 40
to tI.60 a gallon.
Al these prices tho dealers are com
planning OF the scarcity, and claim
that the beds are beginning to get
poor" that IL small. They say that
even n short spell OF bad weather IL
likely TO cause such n shortage that
they will be forced TO raise the prices
In order TO meet tho demands OF the
dredgers and topEers.
In the case OF tho bad weather last.
ing some time. % IL not unlikely that
oysters will join tho high cost OF liv-
ing menu.
