Downward Current

NEW YORK, Jan. 15-R-The
bond market followed the trend
OF stocks into lower price levels
today. Only a few scattered rails
and specialties managed to escape
the downward current.

most part confined to fractions and

performance as due to drying up
of bids rather than any concerted
liquidation. Total sales of 81, $751;
300, par value, compared with $1O,-
$50, GOO on Tuesday. it was the first
time in more than a week that
sales fell below the $40, 000, 900
mark for a full session.
Conspicuous on the decline with
losses of fractions to more than a
point were, among others, Inter-
national Telephone IS at AZ IL,
Delaware & Hudson as at SO, Com
monwealth Edison 3 lbs at 116 IL,
Great Northern Is at 1O4 7-8 and
