Father Orlemanski, pastor of the
Holy Rosary church of Springfield,
Mass, appeared puzzled by the
publicity, which he said he had
hoped to avoid until he returned
home. From the Kremln itself
he learned of the wide comment in
America on his trip.
Today's newspapers in the Rus
sian capital featured the priests
meeting with Stain under two

official photographs covering the
entire bottom of the page. The pic
lures show Stain in his marshal's
uniform. wearing broad smile,
and Foreien Commissar Vyache-
slav Molotov in a business suit,
greeting the grave-meined clergy
man.
Father Orlemanski, receiving ORR
ginal prints of the photographs,
commented:
This will make rumpus in
America. eh?"
Stain rarely receives any private
citizen. and it is even more I'M
usual for him to meet clergyman.

TRADING IS SLOW
IN STOCK MARKET
BY BERNARD S. O'HARA

NEW YORK, April 20 LIP
Sluggish selectivity described the
stock market today, this week and
during the month just past as
even the most bullish customers
exhibited ultra conservatism pend
ing the big Allied push into
Europe.
In the slowest April since 1912,
the list lost only moderate
amount on balance and, for the
week, was up a shade. Through
out, pre-invasion nervousness re-
ceived the principal blame for a.
pathy and occasional substantial
recessions. Trends still had
the benefit of rising domestic
political hopes and corporate earn
ings statements although the latter
reflected mounting taxes and ope-
rating costs.
The market suffered its worst
and only drop of the six-day pro-
ceedings on Monday. It steadied
Tuesday and advanced by meagre
stages Wednesday Thursday and
Friday.
The Associated Press 60 stock
average was unchanged at ST. and
for the week was up L. The COM
posite was off exactly one point
for April. Transfers of 245, $50
shares were among the low

pared with 258, 24o last Saturday.
The months aggregate of 10, 846,-
800 shares stacked up against IT,
643,038 in March.
The weeks investment demand
was devoted mainly to specialties
including liquors. Rails did fairly
well. The Montgomery Ward WLB
dispute in which the government
seized the Company's Chicago
plant was weeks market highlight
and almost obscured the war news.

day and ended the week up 1-2.
