WALL ST. SHOWS
MUCH UNCERTAINTY
General Motors Only Exception
to Otherwise Sluggish
Market.
BY Associated Press to Every Evening

Wall Street, New York, March =
Trading was extremely light and narrow
in the first half hour Of today's stock
market, irregular changes in few instances
exceeding small fractions. General
Motors was the only striking exception,
reacting 3 points. The inactivity was
attributed largely to increasing uncertain
ties in the foreign situation. Shippings,
coppcrs and few equipments were finn,
but rails and spccialtics yielded to moder-
ate pressure.
Further weakness in the automobile
group carried the general list down the
first hour, but prices recovered partially
later on the strength of such divers issues
as shippings. Industrial Alcohol, Mexi-
can Petroleum Baldwin Locomotive and
Railway Steel Springs Dealings con-
tinucd at low chb, the turnover of the
morning being the smallest Of any similar
period in many weeks. United States
Steel moved within less than 3 half
point range.
Liberty 3 as sold at % go to o774.
first As at $3.50 To $500 and second Is
at % 30 to 96.fS.
