Bond Compromise Reached.
To Washingtonians one of the
most important financial news items
of the week came from the Public
Utilities Commission, showing a
compromise had been reached be-
tween holders of some $4,000, 900
Anacostia & Potomac and City &
Suburban bonds and the Capital
Transit and Washington Railway &
Electric Cos. The matter had been
in the courts for many months. The
plan requires approval of the bond
holders.
Capital Transit proposes to as
sumo liability, in effect, for $2,097,-
600 Anacostia & Potomac River
r. r. Co. 5 per cent bonds and
$1,342,OOO City e. Suburban per
cent bonds. The Washington Rail-
way & Electric Co. proposes to guar
antee payment in case the transit
company should default.
The proposed settlement calls for
extension of the maturity date of
the Anacostia bonds from April l.,
1949, to December /, 1851. and the
Suburban bonds from August l.,
1948, to December /, 1851, the in
terest rate on both issues to be cut
from S to 3A per cent. The suits
were brought to establish the liza
bility of the two companies for the
bonds, the assets of the former street
railroads having been largely dis
posed of. When a "compromise"
became likely, the bonds quickly
moved up to par on the Washing
ton Stock Exchange.
The bonds are held by many
Washington banks and are widely
owned by individual investors.

WHAT STOCKS DID
BY FREDERICK GARDNER,
Associated Press Financial Writer


NEW YORK, May 25.-War gloom
lifted trifle in the stock market
today, without any especial news to
account for it, and leading issues
stepped out Of a generally disap-
pointing week with a fair-sized
rally.
Steels. aircrafts and coppers came
to the fore for gains running to 3
or more points after a sluggish first
hour when prices were slightly
mixed in virtually all departments.
Dealings picked up a bit at the last
but still were far from fast. Top
gains were reduced in most cases
at the close.
The Associated Press average of
go stocks held a net advance of 3 of
point at 38l but for the week
showed net loss of 23 points. It
was the fourth consecutive weeks
decline in this composite. Today the
barometer was a OF point above its
two-year low established Tuesday.
The 1910 high was 52.2.
Trading Price Is Slower.
Transfers for the two hours
amounted to 554,330 shares COM
pared with l663,270 last Saturday
when quotations were toppling. The
weeks volume of some 10000, 900
shares contrasted with about 17,0O0,-
600 the week before.
Germany's announcement of prog
ress on all fronts, the somewhat
acrid note sounded by British off,
Gals, and the Nazi air bombing OF
England tended to depress some
traders, but the financial sector still
hoped the allies were a long way
from defeat. The belief was ex-
pressed that, with the generally
"sold-out" condition of the market,
sharp upswing might follow any
real bullish news from abroad. Some
OF the buying in the short session
was attributed to this idea.
Steels were particularly favored by
indications mill operations next
week would mount briskly Both the
metals and aircrafts were stimu-
lated by the outlook for heavy do
mestic rearmament spending.
Among prominent share gamers
were U. S. Steel. Bethlehem. Doug
las Aircraft, United Aircraft, Glenn
Martin, Sperry, Lockheed. Ana
conda, Kennecott, Du Pont and
Sears Roebuck.
Motor Shares Recover.
Motors Jagged most of the time,
but finished on the upside. Rails
were ahead small amounts, as were
rubbers and utilities.
Losers up to point or so included
Dow Chemical. Union Carbide,
Johns-Manville, Eastman Kodak
and Standard Oil of New Jersey.
Gamers Of fractions to more than
2 points in the curb were American
Cyanamid "B,' American Gas, Jones
e. Laughlin, Bell Aircraft and
Brewster Aero. The turnover here
was around l01, 900 shares against
287 900 week ago.
Stocks swung with the war bulle-
tins throughout the week, the news,
on the whole, being interpreted as
bearish. Prices stiffened selectiveiy
Monday. but crashed Tuesday to the
lowest levels for many since June,
1888, as fears of a German-enforceG
peace touched of heavy liquidation.
Transfers on this day of nearly
100000 shares were the largest
since Sept. IL, last. Selling dried
UP and the best comeback of the
week was engineered Wednesday.
The list slipped mildly on average
Thursday and Friday with dwindling
activity as doubts over the outcome
abroad again revived.
