NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Quiet

stock market, but many leaderslwere
unable to work up much of a rally

Selected steels, rails. motors, rub
berS and aircraftS were given inter-

ment of specialties. Gains, running
to 2 points or so at the best, we're
reduced in some cases at the close.
Scattered weak spots also were in
evidence.
Dealings occasionally speeded up,
although sluggish intervals were
plentiful. Transfers for the full
proceedings were around 100000
shares.
Prospects for steel mill operations
keeping at near capacity levels next
week, with orders remaining well
ahead of production. was stimulate
ing influence. Business news, gen.
orally, was optimistic, especially the
| flow of boosted or extra dividends
which brought support for individ-
| ual stocks. LeSSening of war tension,
/ brokers said, was sustaining factor.
Commission houses suggested that
selling to establish income tax
! losses, usual at the year-end, was
beginning to crop up here and
there, particularly in blue chip
issues which are now well under
their marks of last spring. More
offerings Of this sort were looked
for in the next several weeks.
Sporadic labor difficulties were being
watched with mild apprehension.

the time were United States Steel.
