NEW YORK, May 25.-Despite
confusing war news, Wall Street ap-
peared in no mood to batter the
stock market today and in the final
hour leaders rallied fractions to
points.
Late buying in steels and aviations
helped the speculative temperament
and tended to offset sluggishness in
a~feW other departments.
1t was one of the slow Saturdays
OF the month until volume expanded
in the closing period. Transfers for
the two hours were around 500, 1000
shares.
Although dispatches told of Prime
Minister Churchill's warning that
1.-The gravity of the situation deepens
hour by hour" and claims of SUBJ
stantial progress made by the Ger
mans. financial quarters still felt
the Allies had a chance and re-
Trained from dumping commitments
unduly.
Many, too, believed the market
had been pretty well liquidated and
would bulge sharply on any real
bulGsh developments abroad.
Forecasts of a brisk upswing in
next weeks steel mill operations pro-
vided some cheer for boardrooms
and apparently brought in pur-
chasers for shares in this group.
The speedup of the rearmament
program by Congress continued to
keep aircrafts in the limelight and
these stepped forward with the hard
metal division.
Prices were slightly uneven until
well into the final hour, when favor
ties edged up to around their best
levels of the .day.
Bonds were a shade uneven, but
commodities pointed higher. The
free" pound sterling and French
franc maintained steady course.
