tinued heavy and with occasional
rallies closed near down prices.
Coppers were steady. Automobile
stocks presented the only distinctly
strong feature but even some OF these
were weak. Public service companies
were distinctly weak
due in a large measure to alarming
reports regarding U-boat activity, to
continued high money rates, to dis
sention at Washington regarding
shipbuilding and to uncertainty re-
garding the prices to be paid by the
government for war materials.
Cotton for the March delivery sold

Automobiles stocks are winning
more friends in Wall Street because
of their persistent strength in the
face of a weak market.
