BUYING ERRAT|C
. ON STOCK MARKET
AicohoIs, Rails and Several
Other Groups Helped.
Motors Heavy.
BY VICTOR EUBANKS.


NEW YORK, April 11.-Spasmod-
ic buying f1urries occurred in alco-
hols, rails and several other stock
groups today, but old line leaders
were indifferent. Motors were little
heavy. Coca-Cola and American Can
rose around 2 points each. Santa Fe,
American Tobacco B, Northern Pa
cific and National Distillers were up
about a point. United States Steel
and American Telephone were steady.
but U. S. Smelling, Chrysler, General
Motors and Nash were down major
fractions,
The close was irregular. Transfers
approximated 100000 shares.
Shares up around a point in
the forenoon included several special
ties and such issues as Case,
Du Pont, American Tobacco B,
American Can, United States Gypsum.
United States Steel preferred, Amer
ican Rolling Mill, American CONNER
cial Alcohol National Distillers and
Armour preferred. The alcohols prob
ably were the most active on rumors
that some of the distilling companies
might declare a dividend. General
Motors, Chrysler and Nash sagged
United States Smelling lost a point
and the other metals eased Amer
ican Telephone and most of the utili-
ties were a trifle lower. The various
steels improved, as did several of the
rails.
Pending further clarification of
scattered labor situations and the
much-disputed exchange control bill,
brokerage circles were advising dis
elimination in both trading and in
veStment commitments.
1t was pointed out that a strike
threat is still hanging over the motor
industry in the shape of the tool and
die workers ultimatum which is sup
posed to expire tomorrow night. The
fact that the so-called educational"
group of workers is not in agreement
with the A. F. of L. leaders would not
prevent serious interference with auto
motive production, it was believed, if
the difficulty is not adjusted.
Although the financial district was
still hopeful of desired changes in the
regulatory measure receiving the ap-
proval OF Congress, 1t was felt in some
quarters that the fate of this legisla-
tion will not be settled until the
President goes on record as to the
notifications which have been pro-
posed.
Industrial observers we're heartened
by word that Gen. johnson would
recommend the dropping of the N. r.
A. licensing provision. Interest was
also expressed in the administrator
statement that business conditions
generally are good and that improve
ment had been brought about by the
recovery program. the payment of cot
ton and wheat benefits, price increases
in petroleum and bituminous coal and
a substantial rise in the heavy goods
industry.

The President recommended in his

In conclusion the President said:
1T is evident to me, as I am sure it
is evident to you. that powerful forces
for recovery exist. 1t is by laying q
foundation Of confidence in the present
and faith in the future that the upturn
which We have so far seen will become
cumulative. The corner stone of this
foundation is the good credit Of the
Government.
1T is, therefore. not strange, nor is
it academic. that this credit has a pro-
found effect upon the confidence so
necessary to permit the new recovery
to develop into maturity.
If We maintain the course I have
outlined, We can confidently look for
ward to cumulative beneficial forces
represented by increased volume of
business, more general profit. greater
employment, a diminution of relief
expenditures, larger governmental re-
