Wool Demand Continues
Active Among Mills
Sy the Associated Press.

BOSTON, June 25.-The CONNER
cial Bulletin will say tomorrow:
Demand for medium wool. shorn
and pulled, domestic or foreign,
holds active among the mills. All
grades Of foreign wool, medium and
fine, are being purchased readily as
they are reported near port or on
the way. The interest in fine do
mestic Is latent rather than active
at present, although some dealers
report moderate sales.
Appraisal activities are indicated
to be improving here, after a slow
start. Confusing details in handling
are being ironed out. The CCC plan
Is still causing dissatisfaction, how
ever, and the recent amendments
have led to discussion of possible
further extension in optical busi-
ness. Dealers note that some grow
ers are talking up the optional idea
and that Representative Fisher of
Texas has brought the subject be-
fore the Commodity Credit Corp.
Wool consumption promises to
continue on heavy scale. in spite
of some siackening of mill opera
tions because Of manpower prob
lens. The rate is maintained so far
at a record level, as measured by
statistics for the first four months
Of 1943 recently published. Mills
are pressed on Government goods
and find substantial demand for
civilian trade lines waiting for the
time where they will be able to
handle it."

Peace Rated Stocks

Fovorites Up Fractions

BY VICTOR EUBANK,

NEW YORK, June 25.-Peace-
rated stocks dominated another re-
coyery swing in today's stock market
that put favorites up fractions to
points at peaks for ls43 or longer.
The last-hour bulge of Thursday
was extended at moderately lively
opening There were subsequent
slowdowns, but volume exceeded l.
000, 900 shares for the first time since
June Is. Scattered profit taking ap-
peared after midday and top quota
tions were reduced. Bidding quick
ened at the last and enabled many
leaders to close around the days
best,
The good war news received the
principal credit for the return of
speculative and investment contin-
gents. Accounts also were reinstat-
ed in some cases on the idea the
past two weeks drift, in which
liquidation was negligible, had tech
nically bettered the markets situa-
ton. The still cloudy coal mining
controversy and other labor doubts,
plus the desire to await further
Washington anti-infiation steps,
served to restrain numerous Gus
toners.
In the new high" division were
Chrysler, United States Rubber
Goodyear, Sears ]. c.
Penney, International Harvester
Allis- Chalmers, American Viscose

the upside included United States
