NEW YORK. March Is. -CPl-I
The stock market made a few
brave efforts TO advance in the
face Of selling flurries in commo-
dities Friday, but by early after
noon narrow gains were being held
with difficulty
A wide assortment OF shares
pushed up fractions to a point in
quiet trading, which seemed to
reflect short covering and buying
for q turn on the part of traders
who thought Wall Streets latest
fit OF blues was being carried to
extremes.
But q drop Of about a dollar a
bale In cotton. q Sagging tendency
In grains. and pronounced weak
ness in such staples as rubber and
coffee, soon put a damper down
upon what cheer the dshare mar
ket was able 70 muster. Bonds were
unable 70 continue Thursdays
rally.
The action Of foreign exchanges
was again encouraging. with the
pound sterling rebounding n couple
Of cents and the slump in the gold
c%urrencies checked for the me-
ment.
Recoveries appeared In the ear
lier hours OF trading In most OF the
major groups Of shares. Steels were
held back by the controversy in
Washington over the industries
price making, and oils and dairy
issues failed TO recoser. but farm
implements, mail orders. alcohnls,
non-ferrous metals, motors. miscel-
laneous industrials. and scattered
rails and utilities all pushed UP
moderately.
Gains Of major fractions to al
point appeared IN such issues as
Union Pacific. Johns Manville,
Case. Public Service OF N. j., Amer
lean Telephone, Du Pont, Loew's.
y. 8. Smelling, and others.
