NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Another
buying rush took place at the OPEN
ing of the Stock Exchange today.
Central Alloy Steel opened 1900
shares at So, a new high and up X
point; National Cash Register 10000
shares at 1864, up III; Canadian
Pacific, 5000 shares at 2501S, up
81.
The majority of issues made
gains, although further profit-tak-
ing came into United States Steel
which eaSed X point to 185. Copper
shares were depressed on further
selling for profit after their Iscent
bulge. Anaconda opened 1000 shares
at 1876, off Il, while Kennecott
opened 2,700 shares at $50, off 81.
Motor shares were firm. General
Motors new stock rose fractionally
and better prices were noted in
Studebaker, Hudson and Packard.
Chrysler eaSed n to 1181k.
Rio Grande Oil opened 10000
shares at 1871, up 2s, but other oils
did little.
Utilities ruled firm featured by
Electric Power and Light at 81 up 1,
and activity in Standard Gas.
Canadian Pacific featured the
railroad group at new 1929 high,
while the majority of other carrier
issues tended slightly lower.
Paramount Famous Lasky was the
outstanding issue in the amusement
group.
Business generally was very active
IN the first hour or so and the move
ments became more irregular as
steel slid off more than a point.
Many were selling in anticipation
of huge increase in brokerage
loans. There was less talk of a rise
in the rediscount rate in view of
the retention of the Az per cent
rate by the Bank of England.
