STOCKS IN UPTURN
At SHORT SESSION
Buying Centers on Utilities,
With Gains of One to
Four Points.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,
Associated Press Financial Editor.

NEW YORK. August 27.-Ffnancial
markets ended the week with striking
bull demonstration extending through
securities and principal commodities
particularly cotton and wheat.
The commodities were perhaps even
more impressive than stock and bonds,
stocks surged up about l to 4 points,
with utilities showing pronounced
strength in the last hour.
But other groups began to slip as
buying shifted into utilities. and while
many issues in that group closed about
l to points higher net gains else
where were mostly meager.
An upSurge of 50 so bale for cotton
was accompanied by gain of about
2 cents in wheat, which had been a
laggard yesterday, and the movement in
these staples continued to stir bullish
enthusiasm. The recent slump in bonds
was checked and that market scored
some improvement.
The turnover in stocks was around
100000 shares for the 2-hour session.
the ticker was a few minutes in ar
rears at times.
Advances of 2 to more than points
at the finish remained in such issues
as Consolidated Gas, American Power
& Light. American & Foreign Power
and North American. Case. however,
lost half of 3-point rise. and Inter
national Harvester finished up only 4
fraction after rising g United States
Steel, after rising more than point
to new high for the recovery, closed
up about z point.
Coppers were again firm group, with
American Smelling, Kennecott, Ana
conda, all closing about point higher.
Similar net gains appeared in American
Tobacco B. Allied Chemical and West
ern Union. American Telephone was
not a particularly strong spot at any
time. and it reacted to close with loss
of a point Auburn lost 8, net. Rails
failed to participate appreciably.
The freight car loadings figures, as
reported for the week ended August TO-
were a little disappointing. A gain of
only 6.211 cars was small for that period
of the year and followed an advance OF
more than 10000 in the previous week.
Carloadings usually work sharply
higher during August.
Nevertheless, week end reports from
the steel industry provided some en-
couragement, while important gains in
production are not expected until after
Labor day, Carnegie Steel, one OF the
leading United States Steel subsidiaries,
is planning to resume operations In one
Of its largest Ohio plants next week.
