Desultory Covering Of Shorts
Impaired a Firmer Tone
to the Market

New York. May 14.--Thc extreme
dullness of the trading in today's stock
market almost reached n point of com
plete stagnation. Although there was
little encouragement to be- found in
either the financial or industrial situa
tions, the tone of the market was ma
terially improved compared with the
recent sessions. This with the price
/ recovery was due entirely to covering Of
the short interest apparently by some
OF tho lesser members of the bear party.
as there was virtually nothing to in
hucnce any retreat upon the part of the
more aggressive element of the reac-
tionists. Neither did they cvincc any
disposition to do so. Yet il was OBJ
vious that the technical position Of the
market was such as to unwarrant fur
ther extensions of short lines. At the
same time the buying power otherwise
continued OF the same narrow limita-
tons. accounting for the listlcssness of
/ the dealings on the upswing.
Prices worked to Il higher level dur
ing the morning. gains in some of the
more closely held spccialties extending
to over / points. but the average recoy-
cry was within n point. About the
only noteworthy feature attending the
sluggish operations was the renewed
strength of the railroads. more cspe-
cially the minor or low priced issues.
although the standard issues also scored
substantial improvement. The strength
in this division developed after the more
urgent requirements of the shorts had
been satisfied in the industrialS
Call money was literally supplied at

anticipation Of higher rates for loans
over the week end. lnasmurh as the
tightness of money in the last few days
was largely the outcome of the heavy
government Withdrawals. there was
general feeling money conditions would
be easier next week. as the money paid
out by the government in bond interest
would soon find its way back in the
banks again. On the other hand. at.
tention was redirccted to Il delicate
credit situation by the continued liQui-
dation Of Liberty bonds and Victory
notes at new low records.
The market was almost at n standstill
during the intermediate period. but ad-
