London, oct. le-(UPl-Budapest broadcasts indicated today that . large proportion of the Hungarian army garrison in the capital had deserted rather than serve the new Na2i government and Its German masters.
 Radio Budapest was heard at free quent intervals hroadcasting urgent orders to all soldiers in the capital to return at once to your barracks. quarters or home" London ohServ- CTS interpreted the order as sign of wholesale assertions in the wake of the NaEi coup.
 It also was possible that disorders had broken out in Budapest on . scale threatening to overwhelm the defenders of Nazi Premier Feretlc Szalasy,
 Stockholm said ct least one broadcast ordered soldiers to re- turn to their units ''even If they left them in order to assist the new government"

Selected Stocks Up,
But Many Leaders
Lack Support
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer.


NEW YORK, May 15.-Small-
scale investment demand served to
keep the stock market at selectively
higher levels today although many
leaders found difficulty in attract
ing bids.
While analysts believed the tech
nical position of the list had been
considerably improved and that the
invasion, when it comes, could be
taken in stride, skeptics still were
plentiful and numerous potential
purchasers continued to stand aside
The desire to employ idle funds,
however, was strong enough in in
dividual cases to provide needed
support.
Dealings were slack from the start
and turnover of around $4,000
shares was one of the lightest for a
full session since early last Sep
tember. Advances of fractions to a
point predominated near the close.
Gulf Oil, spurred by talk of new
petroleum discoveries, got up more
than a point to a 1914 peak. Ahead
most of the time were Santa Fe.
Northern Pacific, National Supply
Market Street Railway preferred,
Standard Oil New Jersey, United
States Steel, Douglas Aircraft,
American Telephone, Western Union
"a. Du Pont, Westinghouse and
Phelps Dodge. Occasional decliners
included Bethlehem, General Mo-
tors, Chrysler, Sears Roebuck,
