NEW YORK, April IL. = In another
day Of quiet trading. today's stock
market gave q surprisingly good ac-
count of itself. Sentiment in the street,
il not predominantly bearish, was at
least cautious. Emphasis continued to
be placed on the difnculties OF the
credit situation, on the uncertainties
attendant on motor car distribution
and on the extent of the reaction in the
market for copper metal. However, re-
markably little Of this pessimism was
reflected on the tape.
United States Steel above 100, and
higher than at any time since the

ton Of such high grade industrials as
General Electric, Westinghouse Elec-
trio and American Can. Radio, rep
resenting the extreme speculation. was
strong and, while there were many
minus signs at the close, the advances
outnumbered them.
Call money renewed at 8 per cent
and held at that figure all day.
Motors were under pressure and some

formly. the copper rallied vigorously
and the steels were In good demand.
1t was again a day In which the trade
outlook rather than credit conditions
was the influential factor. There was
no reluctance to buy stocks which had
some specific attraction to offer and
there was no bar to selling those which
for one reason or another were I'M
favorably situated.
The rally in the copper stocks seemed
to indicate that the recent bearishness
had been oyerdone. Interim earning
statements are sure to make pleasant
reading for stockholders regardless Of
what happens to the market for the
metal AS a matter Of fact. the price of
copper is likely to be stabilized around
a level which will give the producers
excellent profits.
