Quiet strength was exhibited by
motors, rubbers and assorted in
lustrials in today's stock market
but steels and rails were laggards
while many other leaders stumbl-
ed.
Investors again picked scatter
ed favorites on the persistent idea
that, if the European war ends
soon, reconversion may not be so
troublesome as some had expected
and that stocks with good peace
time prospects could 60 places
when the victory bells peal. Skep-
tics of transition without pain, how
ever, still were plentiful and these
trimmed holdings or stood aside
to wait more definite trend indie
cations.
The Junior automotive group
came to life for while after the
opening but failed to get far out
in front. Fractional price variations
were mixed at the close with plus
signs in the majority. Dealings
were slack throughout.
The Associated Press 60-stock
average was unchanged. Of 844 is
sues registering, 1865 were up, 269
down and 210 unchanged. Transfers

Earnings statements were spot
ty. Western Union "a" dipped in
disclosure of a 6-months' recession.
Sinclair oil advanced IL when the
concern reported boost in net
for the first half. Standard Oil
ND and Texas Co. rose IL each.
In front were General Motors,
Chrysler, Graham-Paige, Hupp Mo-
tors, Montgomery Ward. American
Can, American Telephone, Braniff
Anyways Cat a 1914 peak, Douglas
Aircraft and North American. Los
ers included Santa Fee, N. Y. Cen
