Leadership in speculative initiative
seemed to shift largely from the motors
to tho oils. although General Motors
duplicated its high price at $40 and the
others in that group enjoyed luterValS

The oils followed the lead OF Texas

PHILADELPHIA STOCK
SPLRITE,DeRISE IN CRAMPS
E,NLIVENED LOCAL MARKET
ActiUe Trading Carried Price Up $Io25-Hh Exception Of
Electric Storage Battery Prices We're Narroo

With the exception of the midday
spurt in Electric Storage Battery of
SO to 100, price movements in today's
local market were extremely narrow.
Unlike recent demonstrations in the
local specialties, the exciting trading
in the New York market, rather than
stimulating speculative interest in the
local stocks. had a direct counter re-
strainiDg influence.
The only semblance of excitement
was supplied by the quick up bidding
or Electric Storage Battery. which
after LAYING dormant at IA all dur.
ing the morning, suddenly was sent
soaring to $50, or within So of the re
cent high record price. The movement.
as IN the former performances in the
STOCK, disclosed the same paucity of
offerings which made the marking nm
process comparatively easy task. All
the other recent speculative fayoritc.
remained sidetracked.

perior Corporation, which have held tho

was enlivened by renewed activity in

apparently was in response to the buoy
