Stock Market Quiet,
Moderate Advances
Plentiful al Close
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer

TSSOSidecu IIeSS FINANCIAL writer.
NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-The stock
market again suffered from a short
age of buying fuel today and, while
the direction generally was mod
erately upward, the speed limit was
never even approached.
Assorted industrials, rails, aircrafts
and gold mines did fairly we'll under
the circumstances but many leaders
were at a standstill or inclined to
retreat. Irregularly higher tenden-
cies prevailed at the start and gains
of fractions to a point or so were
plentiful near the finish. Transfers
Of around 400 900 shares were among
the smallest for a fuA session in q
year.
Modest bidding still was attributed
to the belief the list was technically
in position to resume the advance
on broader scale. Expectations OF
important war developments in the
wake of the Quebec conferences
plus the questions of taxes and pos
sibility of quick European peace
helped restrict speculative and in
vestment operations.
Childs Co. stocks and bonds broke
sharply on announcement the COM
pany had filed a voluntary petition
for reorganization.
