Most Stocks Decline;
Low-Priced Motors
Stage Brief Rally
By Victor Eubonk
Associated Press Financial Writer


NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Stock mar
ket leaders generally backed water
In today's market, although low
quoted motors enjoyed fast but
relatively brief upswing.
The direction was downward from
the start. Automotive issues selling
under $40 dominated the ticker tape
in the forenoon, coming out on the
upside in blocks running to 10000
shares. There were occasional slow
downs with selling activity quicken
ing after midday. Declines of frac-
tlons to a point or more were wide
spread near the fourth hour.
Cautionary liquidation was blamed
mainly on the calling of a special
session of Congress to halt imitation
and provide quick dollar relief for
Europe. The latter was viewed as
bullish because it would bolster do
mestic business and the export situ-
alton. Accounts were trimmed
though, on the idea that the battle
against the price spiral would in
volve the resumption of economic
controls. Another batch of cheering
dividends and earnings was virtually
ignored
Graham-Paige, the liveliest sprint
er. touched a 1947 peak along with
Hayes Mfg. In front most of the
time were Packard, Hupp, WHY'S
Overland and Continental Motors
Quaker State Oil edged forward on
a pleasing disbursement. North
America was an isolated strong spot
on announcement the company
would distribute shares of two sub
sidiaries to stockholders.
