Daily Stock Letter,

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. ]
NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-The New
York Evening Suns financial review
today said:
When the stock market opened
today, the advance in prices was re-
sumed with undated vtgor and con-
tinued through the space of most of
the forenoon with the motors again
leading. At midday, however, the
anticipated selling for the very con-
siderable profits which had accrued
asserted itself and for an hour or so
material recessions were in order,
the surface presenting an unsettled
and rather ragged appearance. But
the strength which has been SO mani
fest throughout despite the efforts
which have been made from time to
time in recent weeks to push the
market down was again much in evil
dence in the middle of the afternoon.
General Motors took the lead in that
quarter, running up some twelve
points to $40.
1t was not at all apparent that
news developments played any con-
siderable part in the market move
ment.
With some exceptions prices held
pretty well through the balance Of
the session.
