F|RMNESS NOTED
 IN STOCK PRICES
Speculative Operations Bring
 Moderate Advances

New York, June 22 R-war street opening Stock prices opened the new week tod0 with firm tone. Buying interest was centered mainly In the motor and northwest ern rail shares, but speculative op- erattons also brought moderate ad- vances in a few specialties such as American Type Founders, which rose point to a new high level for the year.
 Price movements in the early trading were held within narrow limits, although several popular in- dustrials, including General Motors and United Cigar Stores, forced into rev high ground. Favorable trade news supplied a firm undertone for the general market but the best gains were joined the list of motors to reach new high levels, and other strong spots including Pullman, American Ice, International Tele- phone, Dupont and Bosch Magneto. Oil shares gave way slightly on profit taking. A 12-polnt break in Italian Lire, which receded to 3.71 cents, featured initial foreign ex- change dealings. Other European rates also tended lower although sterling was steady at s4S5%.
