The WALL STREET JOURNAL |

NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-Initia1 trad
ing in the stock market today was
fairly active with prices irregular,
showing fractional changes from the
previous closing. After the first ten
minutes Of trading, however. the list
f1rmed up. led by the independent oils.
Sinclair got to 215s from the previous
close, and other oils followed, Marland
being quite active and selling to 81.
Standard Of New Jersey was up frac-
tionally. Steel common got above 103
and other leaders improved.
First Hour
Trading in the first hour lacked
some of the activity that has charac-
terized recent sessions, but no let-up
in the steady forward movement &C.
CURED to check the advance of nu-
merous stocks which had shown
marked ability to recovery from their
recent recessions. A great many trad
ers were absent from the Street, due
to the approaching holiday in observ-
ance of Washington's birthday, and
some crippled wire service in sections
kept warehouses; from entering their
usual number or orders.
Second Hour
The end Of the second hour found
the market showing a strong under
tone with some short covering going
on. Several wire houses reported
service still crippled to various points.
Traders had mixed opinions and it is
a long time since the floor was so
varied in its market opinion. All
eyes are on Washington in regard to
tax matters and undoubtedly this
phase Of legislation will be a pivotal
one until it is cleaned up.

would change minds very quickly.
Sometimes you may feel that the husband Of the

yours is to you he may take her to dances when yours
