Securities and Money
Steel Shares
Lead Advance
In Stock Market

A rising stock market, with steel
shares leading the way, reflected the
spreading optimism in Wall Street
yesterday over the progress Of the
strike of steel workers. The third day
Of the strike found little change in
the alignment of the opposing forces,
but traders in stocks drew encourage
ment from the reports from some
quarters of increasing desertions from
the ranks of the strikers.
Official statements issued by the
companies operating in the Pittsburgh
district, where the fight of the labor
leaders is now directed, described the
situation as good" Private advices
received by bankers in the financial
district were of the same tenor.
Speculative Wall Street felt that
with the first three days Of the strug-
gle passed without tie-up Of the in
dustry the news from now on would
be more favorable.
In volume of activity and breadth of
the trading list the market was almost
duplicate of that of the preceding
day. Dealings approximatcd million
shares and the number Of different
stocks bought and sold was 2s4, COM
pared with 288 on Wednesday,
Interest Of the speculative following
converged upon Steel common, but the
more hopeful feeling regarding the
strike aided the speculative cliuues in
moving their favorites ahead, a strong
market developing in number of
specialties. notably American Sumatra
Tobacco, Fisher Body, KeIly-Spring-
field Tire, American Tobacco, Ameri-
can Snuff, North American Company.
Stewart Warner and Union Bag and
Paper.
Buying Of Steel common, observers
said, was most impressive, suggesting
accumulation in anticipation of an
early ending Of the strike. Steel sold
from 1929 to 1O41a during the fore
noon and closed at net advance of
point at 1o3sA Other steels, such as
Lackawanna, Republic Iron and Steel
and Bethlehem, Joined in the move
ment, which carried into the afternoon.
when realizing sales appeared in suf-
ficient volume to check the upturn.
There were some exceptions to the
general upward trend, such as Baldwin
Locomotive, which fell b4ck sharplv
after an early rise to 1888, new
high, closing points off, at 1921.
Further notable improvement in
Liberty bonds took place on active
trading. The 4As recorded an advance
OF nearly half point, at 96.52; fourth
4As rose from 93.98 to e4.54, while the
other issues showed substantial gains
These issues have all been gradually
working toward higher levels ever
since the Treasury announced such
Improvement in government finances
as to make possible reduction in
short term borrowings. A number of
| the foreign government bonds acted
better yesterday and the Anglo French
Is moved close to SO.

Anglo-F'rcnch per cent bonds sold
up to 97$4 on the exchange yesterday,
with rather active trading in that is
sue, the turnover exceeding 100000.
Bond dealers said the tone of the mar
ket for TIE Anglo-Frcnch issue had
been improving for several days.
Pressure upon the market for these
bonds from Northern Europe and
Switzerland, which has tended to keep
prices down for some time past, has
suddenly been lifted, it is stated, and
with the cessation OF offerings from
that quarter has developed a better
feeling all around as regards this par
ticular issue. While the selling from
Denmark. Norway and Switzerland was
under way bond houses here received
requests on numerous occasions to bid

Big Buying of Steel

Heavy buying Of Steel common that
came INTO the market shortly after the
opening, turning the whole list upward
in rally that did not lose momentum
until we'll into the afternoon, gave the
commission house traders food for
thought. One floor trader alone was
credited with buying $4,000 shares. The
tape readers Immediately jumped to
the conclusion that .somebody knew
something" and that the news of the
steel strike was really more favorable
than it appeared on the surface This.
III fact, was the general feeling around
the Street. Regardless of whether it
was warranted, it served to push the
whole trading list ahead, stimulating
activity throughout the market. Old
observers said the tape was telling the
story OF the breaking down Of the steel
strike. Steels rise carried it from
1929 to 104i Y. 1t closed off from the
top at 103a4 on profit taking
