Stocks Still Lag
Al End Of Worst
Week Since july
Declines in Majority
At Close Despite
Scattered Recoveries
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The stock
market today concluded its worst
week since late July with selective
recoveries in evidence but with
many leaders on the offside frac-
tlons to point or more.
Saturday sessions were resumed
after three weekend holidays and
customers who appeared in board
rooms continued TO exhibit high
degree of caution
There was a little bidding based
on the belief the recent retreat had
been overdone. Some last-minute
short covering enabled a few issues
to convert minus into plus signs.
Declines, however. were in the ma
orlty at the close. Volume was one
of the smallest of the year to date.
Drop Started Tuesday.
The direction was downward Tues
day, after the Labor Day recess; as
the wide sweep of the Allies in
Europe confirmed the belief the COL
lapse OF the Nazis was approaching.
This revived thinking that transit
ton troubles on the home front
might accompany quick peace
Selling became urgent Wednesday
and the list suffered its sharpest
break since last November 8 on a
turnover of 1,470260 shares.
Liquidation persisted Thursday,
but support developed and trends
were pretty we'll balanced Friday on
appreciably tapering activity.
The Associated Press 60-stock av-
erage was off i of a point at 532 in
the brief proceedings and on the
week showed net loss of 18 points,
biggest setback since the week end
ing July 27. The tWo-hour aggre-
gate of 275,690 shares was a loy
since July 90. 1t compared with 374,-
40 in the previous August IL Satur-
day.
264 Issues Down.
OF 614 issues registering, a mini
mum since May 13, 264 were down,
lat up and 203 unchanged.
Prominent on the offside today
were United States Steel, Southern
Pacific, American Telephone. Mont
gomery Ward, Westinghouse, Warner
Bros, Du Pont and General Elec-
trio. Chrysler wiped out a loss at the
finish and emerged with a point ad-
vance. Douglas Aircraft Gid the
same, closing up Ia. Minor i'm
provement was held by General
Motors, Standard Oil of New Jersey,
Allied Chemical, Goodrich and j. c,
Penny.
Bonds did nothing much either

 While the number of such ballots wl.l be too few to have any bearing on the presidential election, It was conceded by some public officials that if 0 man died fighting for the right to cast Q free ballot, the least his country could do would Do to honor his last vote,
