 Corporate news contained several dividend reductions or omissions by minor companies, including Celotex, which passed the 75-Cent quarterly payment. These developments at- fected sentiment adversely, and bearish rumors. many Of them branded as ridiculous ln responsible quarters were widely circulated.
