Associated Press Financial Writer

ASSOEldIEQ HI6Ss ELI4dHCAd4 NI4LcI.
NEW YORK, April 21.-The stock
market today looked as though it
was pretty well sold out" but many
potential buyers we're kept in the
waiting column by the pessimistic
tenor Of the war news.
The list made faint rallying ges-
ture at the start. Steels and motors
then began to slip and lower trends
prevailed until the final hour, when
mild recoveries appeared here and
there Closing prices were slightly
irregular
Dealings were negligible through
out. The turnover of approximately
100000 shares was helped by two
20,000-share blocks of Common
wealth & Southern, unchanged
at 2s.
That the market may have done
a lot of discounting of unpalatable
foreign happenings was thought to
have attracted bidding. Bulletins
telling of the continued withdrawal
of Allied forces in the Balkans, how
ever, acted to restrain some who had
the idea of getting aboard for a
technical comeback.
While business progress was
viewed as fairly satisfactory, tax
and labor worries remained as spec
ulative handicaps.
Steels had to contend with the
official estimate putting this weeks
mill operations down % points at
96 per cent of capacity. The drop
was blamed mainly on shortage Of
coke, due to the soft coal mining
deadlock.
Touching new 1941 lows-a few
eventually stiffened-were United
States Steel. Bethlehem, General
Motors, Chrysler, Consolidated Edi-
son, ears-Roebuck and Westing-
house.
On the offside the greater part
of the day were Texas Corp, Ana
conda, Goodyear, Philip Morris and
Union Carbide.
Ahead occasionally were American
Telephone. Santa Fe, Kennecott,
Youngstown Sheet and Montgomery
Ward.
