STOCK PRICES
DIP TO LOWER
TONE IN MART
Credit Situation Holds Back
Many Traders; Few
! Issues Gain.
BY ELMER C.. WALLER
United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-Fear Of
the outcome of the federal reserve
meeting this afternoon was re-
fected in a lower opening on the
Stock Exchange today. Very few
stocks showed gains while the ma
jority sold off fractions to more
than three points. The heaviest loss
was in Westinghouse Electric which
dropped 81 points to 1904. Trading
was only moderately active, many
staying out of the market pending
further adjustment Of the credit
situation.
However large corporations,
especially utilities came into the
market today with new bond and
stock offerings, the total new
financing approaching the 5000 00O,-
600 mark and setting new high
record for a days financing for 1929.
Trading picked up in volume in
The first hour, tickers running ten
minutes behind the market.
Prices continued to drop until II
o'clock when it appeared the
heaviest part of the selling had sub
sided Rallies were short lived,
however. u. S. Steel went down
nearly 3 points. Westinghouse Elec-
uric more than 3, Vanadium more
than 3, Montgomery Ward, 5; Para
mount, 81 American Telephone
and Telegraph, Is; Packard, SIS;
Johns NIanviIle, As, and National
Cash Register, 35s.
Chrysler dropped to new low for
the year at 9918, off 2l8 and then
rallied to tooH.
Curb stocks also broke sharply
although bonds held about steady
in very quiet turnover.
Call money renewed at 6ls per
cent with the undertone firm.
Rails generally dipped with in
dustrials. Losses Of two points or
more were sustained by Union
Pacific, Atchison, Canadian Pacific,
while B. g. o. dipped point. Ches-
apeake 81 Ohio and New Haven
firmed up fractionally.
Copper stocks held fairly steady
with Green Cananea unchanged at
1751s and small losses were noted
in Anaconda and few others Of the
group.
The initial prices generally were
not lowered in early dealings al
though there was a tendency to sell
on every Semblance of advance.
Rallies we're noted in such issues
as Loewes, Westinghouse Airbrake,
Dawson Chemical and international
Combustion. American Can snapped
back, while, General Motors Sagged
and further losses were made by
United States Steel and Union Car
bide.
