On CURB LIST

NEW YORK, May 25 N.N.SO.
The majority of curb stocks con-
tinued to seek new low ground Tor
the bear market period today
with an extension of liquidation
in pivotal issues encounterlng
little important resistance except
at fairly wide concessions.
Turnover continued to run
above the average, which was not
by. any means encouraging to
those interests who had leaned
to the view that the bulk OF the
selling movement had already
passed.
The speciality group was acutely
weak, with the thinnesS Of the

MARKET CRACKS
UNDER SALES
GATHERING
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, May IS 0N.S0. 0.
Unrelenting pressure of liquida-
ton drove stocks into new low
ground for the bear market to-
day.
Led by such erstwhile blue
chips as American Tobacco B,
Consolidated Gas and American
Telephone, the whole list gave
way on a wide front.
New Lows the Rule
Stocks that failed to make new
lows were the exception rather
than the rule. U. S. Steel was
supported despite the unfavorable
weekly steel industry reviews.
American Can and Allied Chem
ical were others to. hold above
their lows. The oils were COM
paratively steady despite heavy
selling in Standard of New Jer-
Sey.
The rest of the market, how
ever, was weak as further sell
ing was forced by yesterdays de-
cline. The tobacco and the food
shares were the hardest hit in
the forenoon, to be followed later
by the rails and utilities.
National Dairy Breaks
A new break in National Dairy
Products and General Foods drove
the food stocks down. Standard
Brands was supported by declara-
tion of the regular dividend but
the others went to new lows.
American Tobacco B was the
weak spot in the tobaccos with
a break of more than 2 points.
Reynolds was steadier but Lig-
gett and Myers B went to a new

With the cotton belt consolidated
41a per cent bond maturity over
hanging the bond market the re-
dictionary price movement of the
carrier liens gave the list de-
cidedly irregular appearance.
Second grade and speculative
rail loans were again under pres

such issues as st. Louis-San Fran
cisco. Missouri Pacific, Nickel
Plate and others in the same
category bore the brunt of the
selling.
The action of the United States

bright spot in the list as the group
held within a fairly narrow range
