Stock Averages

NEW YORK, June ls.-selected

market issues inclined to lag.
Boardrooms lacked their usual
quota of customers. many absenting
themselves for an extended week end

covered little in the overnight news
to inspire them in any expansion of
commitments either way. The result
was that volume dwindled further
after slow opening. with transfers
for the brief session approximating
10000 shares.
Trade developments were better in
spots, and the gloom seemed to have
lessened somewhat in the financial
sector, but speculative contingents
continued to maintain a "show-me"
attitude while awaiting more definite
signs OF a reversal in the recessipnary
trend.
Talk Of dollar devaluation and in
flation faded to a whisper and, with
Congress out Of the way, attention
was centered mainly on the business
picture.
Coppers had the benefit Of the latest
curtailment agreement reached by for
eign producers in London. The SUBJ
stantial cut in overseas output of the
red metal followed a number OF recent
domestic mine closings ordered in an
attempt to bring production in line
with consumption. Helpful also for
shares in this group was a small lift
in the export copper price and larger
demand for the metal from abroad

NEW YORK, June 18-The up
ward surge Of industrial activity con-
tinued this week. with all major

iusted index, based on latest available
data, rose to 67.4 per cent Of the
l929-3o average from 66.7 last week
and compared with 104.5 a year ago.
The current level. however, was
only a little more than 2 per cent
above the recession low chalked up a
fortnight back.

Grains were up only moderately,
while coal movement slackened
Automobile output moved up con-
tra-seasonally as scattered reports OF
retail demand indicated production
running well under purchases of new
cars.
Necessitous orders were said by the
trade to have played an important
role in the second consecutive weekly
rise in steel mill operations.
Cotton manufacturing maintained
