 MONEY RATE RISES
Trading Far Below Average Few Issues Show Activity

New York. June 10 R)-The bond market idled today as the bearish news of the high interest rate forc- ed on the government for the cur- rent financing, taken as 8 reflection of uncertainty over credit, made it. self felt in the already depressed list. So quiet was the early trading that volume of sales fell below the snails pace of Saturday. Price changes were unconsequen. tial throughout the list. United States government securities found an exceptionally narrow market Here and there a high grade rail and utility met enough demand to raise the quotation fractionally. mo- tably Norfolk X Western Consolidat- ed 4s and North American Edison 5s. Some inquiry appeared for Trumbull Steel 6s at no change.
 Changes on the down side were likewise small, Seaboard All Florida 6s finding soft spot for decline of points to the years low Vest erh Maryland 4s yielded more than a point.
 Foreign bonds barely stirred. The French Republic 1-2s, within q point and a half of the years high last Saturday, sold off slightly. while a handful of the German issues yielded in the neighborhood of a point.

CURB PRICES SHOW [ S7EAD|NESS TODAY
Volume of Sales Lower Than Last Week Utilities StrOne

New York, June 10 R9-Prices followed a fairly steady course in to- days quiet trading on the curb mar ket. Public Utilities again held the spotlight and advanced irregularly in the morning before selling was en- countered. The volume of sales was running considerably under last weeks average in the face of pros poets of easy money conditions until mid month.
 Southeastern Power & Light was the outstanding strong feature of the utilities. but Commonwealth X Southern, which is to control South eastern Power. slipped. It was re- ported in Wall street that United Corporation, formed by the Morgan Bonbright- Drexel interests which are behind Commonwealth & South ern, was to buy block of Com- monwealth & Southern stock.
 One of the largest stockholders in both of these holding companies sold off. Electric Bond X Share fiuc- tuated over two point price range. Electric Investors was practically neglected after several days of sharp advances. Italian Superpower. which is controlled by the Bonbright inter- ests with an Italian group. was &C., tive and strong. This company was formed last year to acquire sub stantial minority interest in practi- cally all of the principal Italian pow CT companies.
 Formation of a several hundred million dollar tobacco combine and improved chain stores earnings fail- ed to stimulate buying in those two groups. Mcclellan stores. which re- ported a A per cent increase in sales for the first five months of the year, sagged to new low. Union To- bacco, which is one of the companies being taken in the tobacco merger along with unlimited cigar stores. moved up a fraction on a small turn over.

AHoaudcl Association Spon. soH Civil Aviation Project

Washington. Juno 10 N-A move ment to establish private flying clubs throughout the country has been launched by the National Aero nautic association.
 Senator Hiram Bingham of Con- recticut, president of the organiza- tion. announcing the plan. said the movement was directed to- ward the proper develop ment of civil flying in the United atateA" It has been undertaken. he said. only after insurance diff culties have been overcome. It is now possible. he explained. for a flying club formed under the N. A. A. plan and chartered, to receive in- surance against the loss of the plane. pnd against property liabil- tty, property damage and passenger liability.
 While foreign flying clubs are thriving under government subsidy, he said, this idea lis not tolerated, and is not recommended by the as- sociation."

STOCKS ERRATIC AS
 TRADING IS LIGHT
Rallies Short uvd-Spotty
 Market This Afternoon

New York, June 10 R-Highly cratic price movements again char acterized the stock market today. Prices opened irregularly higher, turned heavy before midday. rallied briskly in the early afternoon and then became spotty again as fresh selling developed in some of the public utilities. Trading continued relatively light in volume, indicating an absence of any extensive pubic participation.
 Call Money Unchanged
 Call money renewed unchanged at I per cent but the supply was only nominal. Wall street expects stiff fer money with the approach of heavy mid-month payments. And this is having a deterrent effect on speculative operations for the ad- vance. Short selling is also restrict ed by the fact that large short in terest already has been built up in several of the speculative issues. making further bear" commit ments rather hazardous in the event of any organized buying support suddenly making it's appearance.
 The drop of 1es.5s6 tons in the May unified orders of the United States Steel Corporation. made pub- lie at noon today. was somewhat less than generally expected in view of the high rate of operations last month. Steel shares failed to make any appreciable response to the announcement one way or the other. U. S. Steel common sagging a point to 167 on light trading after the news became public.
 Oils Advance Slightly
 Oils showed a tendency to advance on the first report of proceedings from the Colorado Springs conserva- ton conference, but the organized buying was limited to the relatively unimportant issues. Houseon and Indian Refining each ran up about 1 points and American Republics :, but the Standard Oil issues. Sinclair, Skelly, Pan American and other leading producers failed to exhibit any great amount of enthusiasm. THE MARKET AT 2:3O F. NJ. Furnished by Putnam & Col High Low Close
