BONDS IRREGULAR
IN QUIET MARKET
Foreign List Shows Small

U. S. Group Dull.
BY ALEXANDER HENDERSON,
Associated Press Financial Writer.


NEW YORK. June 27-The bond
market f1uctuated irregularly today as
activity kept within the usual limits
Of a short session.
Foreign obligations provided much of
such trading as developed. The Ger
man 5l5s of 1865 lost small fractions on
a steady turnover. while the Is of 1949
were less active but more vulnerable.
German Central Agricultural Bank IS
of October, 1860, dropped about / point.
French rs of 1949 lost fractions, but the
7l2s held steady on quiet sales. Uru-
guayan IS. Polish rs and Colombian 6s
of October, 1861, receded. Ofsetting
these losses were gains in such DIVERSE
