Christmas Holiday
Prospect Slows Up
Stock Market
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer


NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-Slightly
mixed price changes continued to
cloud the direction of today's stock
Commitments either way were
kept at minimum in preparation
for tomorrow's Christmas recess
Rails, while slipping a little, were
not particularly unsettled as the
Government moved to take over the
roads as a step to avert Nation
wide strike. The steel wage contro-
versy also remained as mild handi-
cap.
Dealings, fairly active at the start
slackened near midday.
American Distilling rallied a point
or so and lesser gains were recorded
for. United States Steel, General
Motors, Chrysler, Omnibus Corp. (at
a new 1943 top, Douglas Aircraft
Sears-Roebuck and United States
Rubber. In arrears were Santa Fe
New York Central, Southern Pacific
Southern Railway, Bethlehem, Ana
conda, General Electric, Allied
Chemical, Sperry, j. G. Penney and
Philip Morris.
Railway bonds maintained rela-
lively steady course. Commodities
were uneven.

7 per cent above the like 1912 pc
riod, the Federal Reserve Bank OF

Christmas Buying Rises
7-10 Pct. Over Last Year
Sy the Associated Press

Fy the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-The rush
to buy Christmas merchandise domi-
mated retail trade activity this final
week Of the buying season, Dun g.
Bradstreet said today in the weekly
review of business.
The usual last-minute burst was
not as great as expected, however,
the agency said, due to early gift
buying late in November. Volume
compared favorably with last year
the total for the country being
estimated at from 7 to 10 per cent
