Corp. reported a consolidated net
operating loss of 1892 824 for the

deduction of all charges, including

pared with a second-quarter operat-
ing loss of 1926, 1853 and an operating
profit of 1927 069 in the September
quarter of 1889.
The purpose of the special reserve
against foreign assets, the company
said, is Ito exclude from current
profits those profits earned during
the period in foreign currencies,
principally sterling, which are not
currently realiZable in United States
dollars and therefore are not avail
able for use in the corporation S
operations in the United States"
These profits, "at such future time
when they may be converted into
United States dollars, will be in
cluded IN profits of the period in
which realized" the concern added.

Stock Averages

Associated Press Financial Writer


NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-Stocks
tried for recovery In today's market,
but generally failed to attract real
buying power.
Urices for steels, motors, air.
crafts, shipbuildings and specialties
edged forward fractionally in the
forenoon. There was a mild relapse
after midday and, at the close,
gains were reduced to negligible
amounts in many instances or re-
placed with declines.
Utilities were soft throughout and
numerous other issues finished
where they left off Thursday. Deal
ings were about as slow as in the
previous session, transfers being
around 100000 shares.
A little buying in the morning
was attributed partly TO the per-
sistent idea that technical come
back was due after the lengthy
reaction.
The home business picture re-
manned optimistic from a specula-
tive standpoint, brokers said, but
traders inclined to step carefully
pending more assurances the Brit
ish war condition is not growing
worse. Scant stimulus was derived
from the flow of dividends and
earnings statements which was be-
ginning to ebb. Liquidation to
establish loss for income tax pur-
poses was in evidence and con-
siderable switching out of one stock
and into another accentuated the
confusing drift.
Resistance was displayed by shares
of New York Shipbuilding, Inter-
national Mercantile Marine. East
man Kodak, United States Gypsum,
Boeing, Glenn Martin, General Mo-
tors, American Smelling, New York
Central. Bethlehem Steel and
youngstown Sheet.
Lacking much support were United
States Steel, United States Rub
Der, Goodyear, International Nickel,
Anaconda, Great Northern. Stand
ard Oil of New Jersey. Dow Chem
ical and Union Carbide.
Consolidated Edison and Public
Service of New Jersey dipped to new
lows for the year.

CHICAGO, Nov 29.-After trying
