STRONG BACKING
SENDS RAILS TO
new HIGH POINT
(By the Associated Press)

NEW YORK, March 20 (P).-Irregu Z
larities in price movement developed
in today's stock market but powerful
financial interests sponsoring a group
of high priced rails and industrials
nevertheless succeeded in marking
them up to high records. Final quota
tions disclosed a fairly long list of
1 to 5 point gains, interspersed with a
small number of net declines of la SINH
lar character.
U. S. Steel common touched a new
top at 166% General Motors at 1S3 Il ];
Commercial Solvents B at 29SR; Della
ware and Hudson at 199k; Baltimore
and Ohio at 1853, and Rock Island at
SS14. Other highs included Dupont,
All American Cables, International
Telephone, r. H. Macy, Hayes Wheel,
Remington Typewriter, Underwood
Typewriter, Woolworth and several
others
On the other hand, American Brown
Boveri, Electric Refrigeration, Dodge
Brothers A and the preferred and the
Wilson company issues sank to new
low levels for the year, but the sell
ing was believed to reflect special
situations within the companies in
volved.
Reduction of over $sS,OoO,OOo in
brokers' loans last week had bullish
effect on speculative sentiment. Wall
street also was inclined to the belief
that the strength of the high-priced
issues represented pure investment
buying, attracted by the fact that cur
rent yields even at the prevailing high
quotations were better than on most
high grade bonds. With indications
that $4OO,OOO,OO0 will be distributed
around the end of the month in the
form of dividends, interest and bond
redempttons, it is considered logical to
assume that at least part of these

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, March 29 (P).-Evidence of
export transactions of unusual magni-
tude strengthened the wheat market
today, although at first prices were in
clined to sag. Closing quotations on
wheat were firm, 5s cent to l cent net
higher, with corn X cent to q cent up,
oats showing Y cent to 5s cent gain
and provisions varying from 10 cents
decline to II cents advance.
Throughout the day talk was cur
rent of big demand for ocean freight
vessels to carry grain. The Canadian
growers pool was said to have taken
vessel room for the shipment to Europe
of as much as 100000 bushels of
wheat. Meanwhile premiums for num-
ber hard wheat at the Gulf of Mexi-
co were the highest in weeks, 1917

in the southwest were smaller. Red
wheat was reported firmer in the east
and the worlds available supply shows
7,974,O00 decrease for the week. Heavy
abandonment of wheat acreage in
western Kansas was noted by grain
dealers, and this circumstance at
tracted much notice, at variance with
advices earlier in the day pointing to
auspicious crop conditions generally
both in this country and abroad.
The temporary downward trend of
the market around the opening was
also associated with assertions that
monthly unofficial domestic crop sum-
maries to be issued after April l would
indicate a large yield. On the other
hand, reports that Albania was mobil-
-izing troops and that Jugo-Slavia had
given notice of defensive action were
effective in emphasizing the price rail-
lies witnessed as the day drew to an
end.
Corn developed independent firmness
owing to scantiness of receipts. Ship
ping demand from the east, however,
remained laggard. Oats followed corn
