NEW YORK, July 20.-A rise of
fractions to points in oils, firm
ness in sugars and strength in utili-
ties furnished bright spots in an
otherwise drab and uninteresting
stock market session during the first
two hours Of trading today.
The general list firrned up for a
time, but the rise slowed up before
noon when a drift downward from
the highs was in progress.
Oils Hold Firm
Standard Oil of New Yorl: was an
outstanding feature on the big board
while Vacuum was heavily turned
over on the curb. Shortly before
noon a block Of II, 400 shares of
Standard of New York sold at 1873
up p from the previous close. 1t
improved on this price later.
Houston Oil rose to Al, up 3; and
fractional advances were recorded
in Standard of New Jersey. Sinclair.
Phillips and Continental. Buying in
oils was predicted on expectation Of
sharp curtailment in output in the
Oklahoma field. The California field
showed an increase Of $500 barrels
daily for the past week, but cut in
output was expected to bring drop
of $4,000 barrels daily this week.
sugar Shares Up
Sugar shares were bid up on rise
IN the raw sugar market and
f1rmer price for refined. American
Sugar Refining rose IL points to
57%; Cuban American Sugar q
to So, and Porto Rican American
Sugar rs, to 1873
Firmness in the utilities was
maintained while the industrials
slipped back around noon. American
Water Works rose IL, to 40. Com
munication issues we're fractionauy
higher.
In the industrial section, Steel
common slipped back to IS, up u
point net, after touching a high for
the day at 955s. at noon fractional
gains were retained by Case, Chrys-
Ter, General Motors and General
Electric. Copper shares were firm
on increasing Trench demand for
the metal. Rails were dull and
steady.
