NEW YORK. June l6 tPl.-While
seemingly at variance with its policy of
requiring fuller information from cor
porations whose shares are listed. the
action of the New York Stock Exchange
in granting permission to the Hershey
Chocolate Corporation to omit all fig
ures on net sales from published reports
is regarded by Wall Street as a rea-
sonable concession in view of unusual
competitive conditions. Similar per-
mission has been given recently TO
other food companies such as General

The step was taken because the COM

vantage compared with their competi-

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June i6.-Stocks left

unlmportant price changes.
The market was strong in the morn
ing. firm in the early afternoon, and
sold oil in the last hour much the same
as it had done on the two preceding
days. Nevertheless. during the session
pivotal stocks made new highs on the
recovery, with the rails assuming the
leadership.
For the buying Of the rails, which
was the feature Of the morning. there
was no adequate explanation in the
news. 1t was said that the next car
loading statement would show an in
crease, out no one claimed that the
increase would be large enough to JUS
Try aggressive speculation for the rise
IN railway stocks However floor trad
ers and professionals whose activities
mace up the market were not disposed
to question motives too closely. u was
sufnclent for them that the rails
showed signs Of strength and that the
snort interest in that group showed
signs of concern.
The leader today, as yesterday, was
New York Central. which slowly moved
ahead until it had crossed IA against
lNe low OF 81, last eek. Next Atchi-
son and Union Pacific were taken I'D
and both made new highs on the re-
colery. simultaneously some of the
railway preferred issues improved
Atchison preferred crossed so, up 8
points from its bear market low. Even
at that price it yielded nearly 10 per
cent
Elsewhere in the list stocks for the
most part held the gains of earlier in
the week, without improving on them.
United States Steel common was heavy
and so was American Telephone &
Telegraph. Declaration of the regular
dividend by Pullman was followed BY
only a fractional rise in the stock.
Auburn Auto was bid up some 4 points
III the first hour. but then reacted. The
value was never more than moderate
even in the railway stocks.
