NEW YORK, May 21-(P-Rail.
road issues, cued by a fast-risins
stock market, shook off early ir.
regularity and moved up to final
gains running to around 3 points
In today's bond dealings.
The advance was the second in
a row since the carriers on Mon
day were pounded, down to the
lowest, on the average, since
September 1914.
Turnover increased as more bids
came into the market to a total of
81, 043, 900. This compared with
$3, $3.50, 900 Tuesday.
1ndustrials and utilities followed
a narrow price line but showed
a steady undertone.
Buying was credited by brokers
in part to the belief among some
investors that recent prolonged
pressure had lowered many rail
liens to attractive levels. Reas-
surances over the domestic bust
ness outlook by a leader in a
banking field was also rated a
oullish influence.
Issue Postponed
In the new capital market in
vestment circles noted an an
nouncement by the State Of Con-
necticut of postponement Of sale
of $50, 200, 900 in bonds scheduled
for May 81. State Treasurer Joseph

was for administrative reasons.

Stocks staged their third best per-
Torrance OF the year in today's
market with gains ranging to
around 3 points.
Support for a wide assortment
of industrials and rails arrived in
early afternoon to lift the list of
an irregular trading range. Steels.
motors, oils, beverages and some
special stocks were prominent
'risers.
Commission house said the raj
ly stemmed in part from a dis
sipation Of many fears over the
business outlook and from belief
that the large short interest exist
ing indicated a strengthening Of
the internal position and a tenn
porary over-sold condition of
many issues. Short covering and
buying for quick profits on a
comeback, as well as some invest
ment purchases, ere reported.
Among favorable factors was a
flood of dividend actions includ-
ing American Telephones usual
