Stock Market Turns
Moderately Lower
After Long Rise
BY VICTOR EUBANK.


NEW YORK, Aug. ga tired
looking stock market today took a
rest in slightly lower territory after
six successive rising sessions which
put the industrial average at an
eight-year peak.
Analysts were not particularly dis
turbed by the general reaction
which most termed a healthy tech
nical correction" Accounts were
trimmed in numerous cases because
of the thought that the list had
been over-bought and that better
purchasing levels were likely. Fed
eral price brakes on consumer goods
tended to chill sentiment although
.reconverSion bulliShneSS persisted.
The congressional move to cut taxes
also was helpful.
Trends slipped after a fairly
steady opening Activity Slackened
as leaders backed away Declines Of
fractions to a point predominated
near the fourth hour
Prominent stumblers included U.
IS. Steel, Bethlehem, Chrysler, Cen
eral Motors, Southern Railway,
Santa Fe, Graham-Paige, Goodrich,
Montogemry Ward, Du Pont, Allied
Chemical, Anaconda and American
Telephone
Bonds were irregular.
In the curb resistance was shown
by American Cyanamid, National
