Stock Averages
Bv VICTOR EUBANK.

NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-Stocks dug
in for a modest rally today with
market leaders retrieving fractions
to point or so of recent losses.
Activity picked up a bit on the
come hack, although the pace never
inconvenienced the ticker tape.
Transfers were around $50 900 shares
for the two hours.
There was little change in the
business picture, which continued
moderately cheerful for the long
term, but foreign tension seemed to
have lessened a bit as market brake
and the notable drying up of tax
selling in the past several sessions
was thought to have attracted some
traders to the buying side.
Steels, aircrafts, motors, mail
orders and specialties were favored
the greater part of the time, al
though none stepped very far out in
front. Rails and utilities hugged a
slim groove. There were few fair
sized losers in evidence at the close.
Among stocks on the rising side
were United States Steel, Bethle-
hem. Youngstown, General Motors.
Chrysler, Douglas Aircraft, Sperry,
American Can, Du Pont, United
States Gypsum, General American

To Help Others,
Johnston Says
D. G. Market Leader
Tells of Conference
On Listings
BY EDWARD C. STONE.

James M. Johnston, president of
the Washington Stock Exchange and
partner in Johnston, Lemon g. Co.,
back from a conference with New
York Stock Exchange officials on
stock listings. said today that the
meeting was most friendly, that the
New York exchange is not trying to
get business away from the smaller
exchanges, but is hard at work on
plans to increase business on all ex-
changes.
John M. Hancock, chairman of
the Stock List Committee. made
report on the situation that proved
intensely interesting. The rules of
the Securities and Exchange Com
mission, which for a long time have
required extended reports. have
made the listing of securities much
more difficult and also far more
costly. Plans are being studied,
however, to increase listings and ex-
pand public interest.
The New York exchange, Mr..
Johnston said today, feels that local
issues should be listed on the local
exchanges first. Then, if there is
sufficient national interest to cause
added trading in other cities, they
should be listed on the New York
board President William McChes-
ney Martin and his aides have no
idea of adding stocks in which there
is very limited trading concern. They
say they have too many of those
already.
Some of the smaller exchanges
have recently asked for the right to
trade in certain issues which are not
listed on their boards. Officials say
their trading in these issues would
be in addition to the sales in New
York, so the big board would not
suffer. They would arouse interest
among their clients in various out
of-town securities. They don't do it
now because there are no commits
sions involved.
Mr.. Johnston was much impressed
with points brought out in the dis
cussion which lasted between three
and four hours. Further meetings
are to be held, when other exchanges
will be represented
