INDUSTRIAL STOCK
 MUCH IN DEMAND
Rails Also Are Forced Up in
 Dealings

New York, Aug. R-Resump- tion Of the upward price movement 1 in today's stock market carried both the rail and industrial aver ages to record high levels, more than fifty individual issues eclipsing their previous peak prices Of the year. The advance reached violent proportions in a few issues which are belieevd to harbor a large short interest, Timken Roller Bearing soaring nearly IT points to Al and Manhattan Electrical Supply nearly n points to 131.
 Banks called about S1o, 100000 in loans during the day but there ap- peared to be plenty of funds avail able at the federal rate of four per cent. The recent reduction in bank ers' acceptances, following soon aft CT the decrease in Kansas City fed eral reserve rediscount rate, has aroused hopes in speculative quar- ters of cuts In other reserve centers, particularly those serving the agri- cultural regions. All of the high grade railroad and industrial stocks reached new high ground. the list including '. s. Steel common, Gen eral Motors. General Electric, American Tobacco, American Smelt- ing, Baldwin Locomotive. Consoli- dated Gas. Chrysler Motors, Hud- son Motors, Woolworth. Atchison, New York Central. Union Pacific. Southern Pacific, Southern Railway, Canadian Pacific and Chesapeake and Ohio.
 Chicago grain operators were re- ported to be heavy buyers of Tim ken, which sold as low as 7S earlier in the year. Both Timken and Man. haitian. Electrical Supply, which has moro than doubled in price this year, fell back sharply on profit talk ing. The rapidity of the advance in these and other issues led to cau- tionary advices by some of the larger commission houses. who urg- cd profit taking on the theory that the technical position of the market had been weakened.
