STOCKS STEAD|ER,
VOLUME DW|NDLES
Prices Are About Unchanged
on Eve of Federal
Regulation.
what Stocks Did.
BY FREDERICK GARDNER,
Associated Press Financial Writer.


Associated Press Financial Writer.
NEW YORK, June 30.-Trading in
stocks ebbed to a thin trickle of
orders today as the dullest month on
the Stock Exchange in decade faded
out.
The market steadied after its de-
cline yesterday and prices on the
average finished about unchanged.
On the eve Of Federal control OF
speculation the turnover on the
Stock Exchange dwindled to l89,3OO
shares. 1t was the smallest volume
for a two-hour session since August
II, 1923. when only 158,800 shares
were traded.
Lowest Since May, 1924.
Total turnover for the month ap-
proximated 16,800,d0 shares, the
lowest since May. 1924. At the height
of the 1929 crash, almost that much
stock was traded in one session.
The same drab note of inertia was
struck in other financial markets as
the midyear drew to a close. Hot
weather kept many traders away from
Wall Street. The approach of Fourth
of July sent others away on early
vacations.
Finding no stimulus in the days
news, speculative markets prolonged
their wailing attitude. Professional
operations were at standStin as
brokers waited to see what effect
Federal regulation would have. No
important immediate changes were
anticipated for Wall Street started
out some time ago to prepare for
Federal rule.
Nash Motors rallied more than a
point on the restoration of quarterly
dividend of 25 cents on the stock.
Steel shares were steady in face of
forecasts of another sharp reduction
in steel operations next week.
Leading Rails Firm.
Leading rails firmed, with Santa
Fe, New York Central and PennSyl-
vania up fractionally to about a point.
U. S. Tobacco touched new 1884
peak at Ill on a squirt of points
In a single transfer of 100 shares.
Chrysler, General Motors and Au-
burn Auto rallied fractionally. Cram
estimated automobile production this
week increased 1896 units to 80,936.
Retail automobile sales were reported
to be holding better than had been
expected recently.
The Standard Statistics Co. average
for 80 stocks was unchanged at 779.
Wheat, which closed "a to y cent
bushel lower, was an exception to
firmness in grain prices. Corn made
an extreme gain of a cent. Cotton
edged 35 to As cents a bale higher
Silver and rubber markets were
closed
German bonds were not moved ap-
preciably by reports of mutiny among
Hitler Storm Troops. The dollar was
generally firm against foreign
exchanges.
