SETBACK OF 8 POINTS

New York. April 21.-Nearly half
a million shares changed hands IN
the first hour of trading today and Tor
the full day three times that much
was traded In on the exchange besides
more than a million shares of curb
stocks. 1t was a bouyant market in
which the public bought without res
traint. Important houses sold freely,
advising their customers that 1t would
be better for the market to have 1t
checked bur they sold without mater
ial influence on prices. A few sepcu-
lative issues reacted under this selling
but new stocks took up the forward
movement SO that the net result was
practically nothing.
Judge Gary's talk on steel was fol-
lowed by q reaction of about a point

not wipe out all the gains

were able to reduce loans rather than
increase them as the result of the
trading of saturday. This means that

telling what it will do with the market
now that it has taken control.
