New York Stocks

NEW YORK, Nov. 10. U.P)-
Good news all along the line except
for the utility companies bolstered
the stock market today. There
were several periods of selling but
toward the close. leading indus
trials and rails showed gains.
Utilities sank to new lows at the
opening and were unsettled
throughout. They have been SELL
ing targets of late on trend toward
municipal control, and reduced
earnings under the NRA. Today s
selling incentive came from re-
marks of President Roosevelt that
what is being done under the Ten
nessee valley authority at Tupelo
Miss, "'is going to be copied in ev-
cry state of the Union before We
get through.
Traders unloaded utility issues
New lows for the year or longer

OF New Jersey off 2l2: North Am
erican 10la off y and United Gas
Improvement 11s4 off rs. The de-
cline was arrested but there was
no perceptive recovery.
A factor in bringing the market
up after the irregularly lower op-
ening was sharp recovery in
American Telephone q Telegraph
capital stock. The issue had been
driven down lbs points last week
on news the federal communica-
itions commission was invesAigat-
ing the company. The stock jump
ed more than 2 points after open

the gain.
The most favorable news was a

the promise of the u. S. chamber
OF commerce to cooperate with the
administration as a forerunner OF
business boom in the next five OF
six weeks.
u. S. Steel gained nearly q point

ceived by fellow jurors in the clean
up drive against graft and gamb-
ling and the tension of an hourly

or. At the time, it was learned,

you re on the spot;' another was
warned he was to be "'taken for a
ride and a woman juror was
threatened with the loss of her
small son. Judge Bowron said.

which were telephoned at approx
imately the same hour

member of the city health commits
sion. Judge Bcwron promised other
jurors the same protection if they

/ had been received but were attribut-
ed to cranks. The latest series,
however, appeared authentic, he
said.

aggressive in county history, is now
investigating alleged city and coun-
ty paving scandals, 1t also indict-
ed District Attorney Buron Fits
