WALL ST. MARKET

NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-There was
display OF strength in many Of the
important stocks at the opening Of
the stock market today, due chiefly
to the cessation of pressure which
had been such an important factor in
disturbing values in the late trading
yesterday. The gains which were
made at the opening were not main
tained, however. and before the end
of the first fifteen minutes recessions
were in order. The highest in i'm
portance was the gain attached to the
trading in Liberty AIS, which con-
tinued pressed on the market at con-
cessions selling at 94.52.
Southern Pacific made a gain OF
Is points, to e9k, followed by re-
action to 9SIS in the next few min
utes. Steel common advanced u, to
961s. and small fractional gains were
made in several other steel indus
trials.
Mexico Petroleum rose "a points,
to les.
After a show OF strength in a num-
Der OF issues in the initial dealings
the market was again under pressure,
and there were substantial losses
during the late forenoon. The fourth
Liberty AIS dropped to a new low
record of 94.5O.
Southern Pacific, which moved up
rs points to 90L, dropped to 9SS.
Union Pacific reacted to 127&. Ma
rine preferred yielded to 110lk, and
the copper stocks were OF about one
point.
The market closed weak.
