CURB LIST HOLDS
REMARKABLY WELL

By Special Leased Wire to The Star.
NEW YORK. April 17.-Further
strength and activity were noted in the
dealings on the New York curb market

a substantial upturn and high prices
were established for the year. Com
mission house business continued on
large scale. with traders active on both
sides OF the market. Later in the ses-
sion realizing set in and brought about
sharp reactions, in some cases extend
ing from one to over four points.
In the oil group Fensland Oil was
the feature, advancing to a new high
mark for the current year, due to
the fact that late last year the COM
pany acquired 1000 acres in the Salt
Creek field, approximately 400 acres
of which adjoins the Tea Pot Dome.
Mexican Seaboard after touching

it's previous low level.

was in urgent demand and also moved
up to a new high mark. Todd Ship

cry were quiet but steady. Motor
stocks continued active and strong.
There was a good inquiry for REQ
Motors on an official statement that
the earnings in the first quarter were
at the rate of more than S6.000.000 a

that with a continuance Of earnings

by STUART p. WEST.

NEW YORK April 11.-AEaln TO-DAY
trading on the stock exchange sur
passed anything that has been seen
in Wall street since the elimination
of the ill-rated boom of April. 1920.
Not in two years has business
reached such total or fluctuations
been 80 violent.
The day began with q tremendous
rush of outside buying orders. repre-
senting the accumulation over sun
day through the mails and across the
wires from every section OF the coun-
try.
This huge buying wave swept
nearly everything on the list Forward
for the space of a quarter OF an hour.
Between the high of the opening ana
the low around noon some Of the last
weeks favorites in the oil group were
of 2, 4 and in one instance s points.
A Soldering influence.
The abrupt and very sharp check
had a SOLDERING influence. as 1t was
calculated to have. upon the specula-
bounds. For the rest of the day, while
dealings continued heavy and excited
the movement of prices was more
orderly.
Nowhere else in the financial situa-
tion was there anything comparable
the stock market.
1t was a big day in bonds. and the
market was strong again. But apart
from some of the railway issues,
which went higher, there was no par
ticular feature.
Some of the liberty group kept
around par again, but for the time
being the advance in both home and
public foreign securities appeared to
be over.
If anything could have further stim-
ulated this part of the market II
was the success of the $150.000.000
offering of the new Treasury 3a per
cent certificates
The books for this loan were closed
on Saturday, with a subscription re-
ported to be nearly double the issue.
In view of the present rates for mon
ey and commercial discounts, the re-
suit of this test Of the governments s
credit had not for moment oeen
doubted. Still it was something OF q
surprise that an oversubscription OF
such magnitude should have been so
well discounted. as it proved to be,
in the investment market.
Setting For q Break.
The pressure of buying orders was
SO urgent that 1T offered an excel
lent opportunity for a break. heavy
selling going on for a time unob-
served.
Then came inc SH1dSn III Oils, anu
elsewhere throughout the industrial
list, while bull operators. using usual
tactics, turned to buying rails.
The diversion of interest into rail-
way shares was the feature OF the
afternoon market. Buying orders were
hastily thrown into these stocks when
the reaction in the industrials threat
ened to become important.
Both standard dividend payers and
the low priced non-dividend members
of the rail group were pushed ahead.
many of them to new highs for the
year.
