Some SpeeiaIties Up,

B. VICTOR EUBANK,
Asss sSsed Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, June 29.-Demand
centered on specialties in today's
stock market while many recently
speedy performers tripped over light
selling and most leaders suffered
from lack of attention.
The fact the Associated Press Co.
stock average had touched a peak
for nearly seven years inspired con-
servatism among even the most
rabid bulls. The IDEA was that fur
ther technical correction was likely
and that speculative and investment
commitments might well be post
poned to await this reaction. The
war news and domestic politics con-
tlnued as props for sentiment and
individual situations brought sup
port for scattered favorites.

Russia Enters
Iran Oil Bid

WASHINGTON, Nov. a. UP)-
Soviet Russia's belated bid for oil
concessions in northern Iran upset
a year of nearly completed negotia-
tionS by British and American oil
companies for concessions in south
eastern and central Iran, it was
learned Saturday.
Well informed sources said the
decision of the Iranian government
to postpone granting any conces-
sionS until after the war was a re-
suit of its historical suspicion of
the Soviet Union.
Iran was understood to be anxious
and ready to grant concessions to
either an American or British COM
pany. But when Russia entered the
race, it was said here. there was
no other alternative for Iran except
to cancel all negotiations The Unit
ed States ano Great Britain we're
described as bitterly disappointed"
that a year of negotiations had
been wasted, but supported the Ir-
anian action as entirely legal and
within Trans sovereign rights.
Russia'S interest in Iranian oil
came as a surprise because it was
the first time the Moscow govern
ment had Indicated an interest in
investing capital out of the U.S.S.R
Some observers tried to read signifi-
cance into an article in the Moscow
publication, War and the Working
