Early Stock Declines
Reduced or Converted
Into Gains al Close
By Victor EEbonk
Assoeiosed Press Ftrcncjct Write,


NEW YORK, Aug, 19-Timidity
Of early selling In today's stock
market inspired some bidding after
midday and initial losses running
to 2 or more points were reduced
or converted into modest gains here
and there at the close.
Steels and motors found the going
bit difficult from the start, but
even these steadied when offerings
dried up appreciably.
Dealings were slack throughout
and transfers for the full stretch
OF around $50, 900 shares were among
the smallest since early July.
Supported were Colgate-Palmolive
Goodyear, Gabriel Co, Montgomery
Ward, Johns-M -Manville, Southern
Pacific and J. I. Case.
Laggards were youngstown Sheet
General Motors, Chrysler, Interna-
tional Harvester, American Tele-
phone, Douglas Aircraft, Kennecott,
Du Pont, Norfolk & Western, South
ern Railway, National Distillers and
Schenley.
Wall street caution. brokers said
still was based partly on fears OF
widening labor disputes. Many po-
tential purchasers also stood aside
to await decisions Of the price de-
control board.

Chinese Announce
New Exchange Rate
BY ths Assseiatsd Press

SHANGHAI, Aug. 19.-The nerv-
GUS and confused Shanghai black
market adjusted prices late this aft
ernoon to conform roughly with the
newly established ofncial rate of
$3.50 Chinese dollars to one Ameri-
can
The new black market prices were
lined up after hours OF wild confu-
sion as the exchange prices jumped
and wavered after the increase from
the former oficial rate of 2,020 Chi
nese dollars to one United States.
The principal purposes of the re-
vision, namely to encourage the ex-
port OF Chinese goods and ~curtail
imports and encourage domestic pro-
duction, appeared doomed to imme-
diate failure as retailers withdrew
imported goods from their counters
or changed the price tags to corre-
spond with the new rates.
