INDUSTRIAL STOCK
PRICES ARE HIGHER
Trading Volume Expands as
Early Market Points
Upward.
by GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Dispatch 70 The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 19.-Buying for
both accounts sent industrial stocks
sharply higher in todays market, in
several instances to the best of the
wear. The advance was not uniform,
for the oils Jagged in the industrial list
and the rails as a whole were heavy,
but 1t did indicate a new attitude
toward the market.
Overnight orders were predominantly
on the buying side and prices responded
easily in the stocks selected for leader
ship. Basis for the new-found conf
dence was the advance in steel prices
and the large contract for structural
steel announced late Wednesday. Wall
Street heard also reports Of improved
retail buying, which was generally as
cribed to expenditures Of sums realized
by the veterans who borrowed on their
certificates, under the new law.
FavOrite Groups.
The large short interest in the in
dustrials covered ON the early advance,
but there was also moderate amount
of outside buying. The groups in favor
included the steel, the motor, the food
and the utility stocks, along with such
specialties in which there were over
extended commitments for the decline.
United States Steel, just under 1E9,
was at a new high on the recovery and
Bethlehem Steel, one Of the favorite
targets for bear operators of late on
the supposition that the dividend will
be cut, likewise made new top on the
rally. The buying in the steel shares
went on undisturbed by the passing Of
the common dividend on Crucible Steel.
Crucible itself slumped 8 points on the
news.
General Motors led its group into
new high ground for the year. The
market expressed entire confidence III
the preservation of the General Motors
dividend.-a confidence shared by those
in the trade. Nash was another strong
auto stock to sell at a new peak and
Du Pont, which has such large in
terest in General Motors. also advanced.
WHY'S Overland reported a net loss Tor
1880 of 1888, 1872, against 9, net loss
of S4,979,857 in. 1929, and yet the stock
was up fractionally.
Food Shares.
Enthusiasm for the food shares CEN
tered around National Dairy Products,
which touched so, new high for this
year, but - points under the best for
last year. Beatrice Creamery, one Of
the fast movers in this part of the list,
made its new high about the same time.
The distress of the shorts was great
est in Johns anville, where the COW
ering was accelerated by the better
feeling toward the building industry.
AS usual the utilities were nearly all
strong. the leaders being the same as
they had been early in the week.
namely, Consolidated Gas, Public Serv-
ice of N j. and Brooklyn Union Gas,

were recorded In North American,

Gas. among others.
During all this demonstration in the
industrial list the rails held back.
There was no repetition Of Wednesdays
weakness, but they displayed feeble
rallying power. Even among the in
dustrials buyers showed discrimination,
avoiding issues in which there was
probability of downward revision of
dividend rates.
Early Market Higher.
Led by the motors and the food
shares, the early market advanced into
new high ground on the current move
in the heaviest trading since February
26 During the first half hour 700. 900
shares changed hands, against 100000
on wednesday. Call money renewed at
/ u per cent.
Assertions by leaders of industry that
world trade is picking up and the
placing of the largest structural steel
order in the history of the steel trade
we're bull factors.
Gains in early trading ranged from
to 3 points, with United States Steel,
which was unchanged, temporarily
yielding the market leadership to the
motor stocks General Motors sold in
large blocks to gain point at as, new
top for the year. Other new highs in
the motors were du Pont. and Nash.
National Dairy Products, with nearly
point gain in heavy trading, featured
the food group. Beatrice Creamery
moved to a new peak for the year. Ac-
tive industrials that improved included
]. ]. Case, Radio, General Electric,
Columbia Graphophone and Woolworth.
LudIum Steel gained point to a new
high. McKeesport Tin Plate was 112
points higher and at a new top. In the
utilities Brooklyn Union Gas and Public
Service Of New Jersey made new tops.
Lorillard went to new high for the
year also. Rails. still under the infiu-
ence of expected dividend cuts, were
heavy Baltimore & Ohio and New
York Central were both off point.
