NOTED by relatively easy Liverpool
cabes. January sold off 70 2O43
making n decline Of about 40 points
from yesterdays high price and Of
10 points from yesterdays close. but
this reaction seemed sufficient TO
bring in a renewal Of Wall Street
and commisiso nhouse buving which
absorbed the early offerings. BY
the end Of the first half hour Janu-
airy had rallied TO 20.60. with the
eral list showing net gains Of about
& ia s points.
The buying attracted by the open
ing decline carried the market IN TO
20.64 for January and 20.59 for May
making net advances OF about 10 70
IL points. The demand seemed to
slacken somewhat at these figures
and fluctuations later in the norm
were rather irregular with prices
sagging off n few points under a re-
newal Of pre-holiday realizing. AT
midday the market was quiet but
steady at net advances Of 9 20 z
points.

tions On Securities To Trad

A telephone flash system has been
installed in the New York Stock Ex-

quotation service.
Telephone stations have been in-
stalled at each trading post where
there will be a quotation clerk who
will keep bid and asked prices for
every stock located at that post. The
telephones at these trading posts are
I'll connected with central quotation
room In which are installed number
of switchboards, presided over by a
large number of operators. These
boards, are, in turn, connected with
each of the telephone booths that sur
round the trading floor.
Thus, if a clerk receives request
for quotation the slip is handed to
the telephone clerk in charge of his
particular telephone booth. This
telephone clerk at once makes con-
Rection with the central quotation
room where he secures at once the
desired information and transmits it,
through the members clerk, back to
