can Aviation rose a point.
 Airplane issues and automobile shares predominated in the list of most active issues traded. The list also included Commercial In- vestment Trust which made new high at 46 7-8 up l 3-8; Seryel which eased slightly, and National Distiilers which made small gains
 Primer grain prices helped J. I. Case and other farm equipments. railroad issues rallied and utilities rose fractions to a point. Wet stocks firmed after early irregular- ity. Automobile equipment issues were again in demand.
 Bonds were irregular in all sec tions as the dollar declined. Com modities generally were better. Wheat was up about a cent a bushel as the stock market neared the close, while silver held steady and copper gained.
 Trading in stocks was dull in the early dealings when prices were ir- regular. Volume increased, low ever, as the close neared and re- covery was in progress. A bit of profit taking was noted In the last few minutes and some of the lead- CTS dipped from their highs.
 Advances in the aviation issues, especially Wright, brought out tll sorts of rumoFs. There is only a small amount of Wright stock ouI- standing, and 1t was reported the exchange was watching tho squirt on the theory manipulation may have been involved.

state Insurance companies.
 The preliminary legal steps to- ward the formation of the Her cules Life Insurance company have already been taken, Col. Humphey said, and the organization of the company will be completed within a few days. The management will be the same as that of the Allstate Insurance company and the All state Fire Insurance company Illinois corporations owned by Sears-supplemented by additional personnel with life insurance ex- perience.
 Hercules will have a capital of $500,000 and surplus of $500,00O, all of which will be paid in in cash.
 The Hercules treaty protects the ance Company who will be used to conserve the business now on the company's books.
 I've are pleased to receive this award" Colonel Humphrey stated, ''as many of the National Life policyholders are likewise custom CTS of Sears, Roebuck and Com pany.
 u IS our luLeIlLiOIl, Ile Sdlu, u carry out the expressed desire of Judge Lindsay, of giving the great est possible protection to the Ma tional Life policyholders.
 "The Hercules Life Insurance Company will have behind it the same ideals of complete responsi- bility to it's policyholders that Sears has always maintained in re- spect to it's customers, Colonel Humphreys declared. It will also have the benefit of the advice and counsel and sound business exper- fence of Sears, Roebuck and Com- pany.
 "We feel that the application of the principles of economy which have done so much toward winning for Sears it's position in the bus mess world, will save for the policy holders of the National Life the maximum of their investments and will make possible for the new policyholders in the Hercules In surance Company one of the mos1 attractive insurance investments ir the country"

 The feature was the activity in automobile and aut0n1ottve equip ment issues, These groups made new highs for two years in the heaviest turnover of the other sec- ton. They lost part of their gains late in the week.
 Anticipation of g. rise in earn ings for the liquor Companies brought demand into that group. Steels were firm for 8 time. Rails were mixed at the end of tho week although q considerable amount of news favoring them was in the rec. cord, notably a contra seasonal gain in car Ioadings and better De- cember reports.
 Aviation issues were strong, fea- tured by again of 26 points in Wright Aero. Oils made spnall gains as did chemicals. Mining is- sues were mixed as copper metal eased off and gold held unchanged.

Boston, Jan 27-CUP)-Buying of wool this week has been moder- ately fair, under existing condi- tions, but with two outstanding features. A persistent effort was made by buyers to chisel prices without much success. And the aggregate volume of business was found to be less widely distributed than had been supposed in some quarters.
