MARKET DOWN
AFTER STRONG
OPENING
By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Jan. 2 uN.S0
After greeting 1885 with q strong
and active opening, the stock mar
ket turned irregularly lower today:
Early gains ranging UP to half
a point were wiped out after the
first is minutes of trading and
losses ranging up to 2 points were
substituted in a number OF lead
ers, including Douglas, Chrysler,
United Aircraft, Atchison and
Western Union.
AIcOhOIs ReactiOnary
Despite reports Of good liquor
business over the holidays, the
alcohol shares were reactionary
with National DiStillers and
Schenley losing half a point each.
Governor Lehman'S proposal for
a boost in liquor tax in this State
to help defray his social security
program was a factor in the down
trend.
While the boost in scrap prices
at Pittsburgh over the holiday was
accepted as q harbinger of a re-
bound in steel operations, the
steel shares, after q higher open
ing, weakened with the rest OF the
market. Bethlehem Steel was off
half a point and United States
Steel one-uarter.
PrOfiting Hits Autos
Profit taking lowered quotations
on all auto shares, with Chrysler
losing over q point and General
Motors half as much. Auburn was
off q point.
Realizing also depressed the air
craft shares, with Douglas drop
ping over two points and United
Aircraft one.
The utilities were mixed, the
sugars and glass issues trended
higher, and the food shares were
steady,

 East had reasoned that. If he were to win the first club and return n spade, declarer might hold up for one round in this suit and take the third trick Then South could concede another club trick and. by using the ace of diamonds for a rc-entry, cash the rest of the clubs.
 When East refused to win the frs club trick, South was deprived of the additional re-entry necessary and 50 could not make his contract. This is an unusual type of holdup play employed by the defense. in no trump contract.
