Stock Market Uneven;
Some Issues Gain
After Early Drop
By the Associoted Press

NEW YORK. July 8.-The stock
market showed faint signs of a
comeback today after early shaki-
ness.
The trend was scarcely decisive
but a number of issues reached new
highs for the year or longer and
fractional gains were literally scat
tered through the list. Minus signs,
however. still appeared in practically
every group.
Turnover on the whole was slow
although flurries of activity de-
veloped now and then.
The market had large batch OF
favorable corporation news to work
on and in some cases individual
stocks responded. But trading en-
thusiasts continued to be dampened
by concern over the outcome OF the
Berlin blockade and by the stoppage
of soft coal production at captive
mines. Many traders, too, moved
warily as the Democratic Conven-
ton approached.
New highs were hit by White
Sewing Machine common and s4
preferred, Benith Radio, Grumman
Aircraft and Atlantic Refining.
Others higher included U. S. Steel,
goodyear, Sears Roebuck, American
Telephone, International Telephone,
General Electric, Southern Pacific,
Southern Railway, Texas Co. and
Richfield Oil.
Among the losers were Republic
Steel, General Motors, Studebaker,
Montgomery Ward and Gulf Oil.

Concrete silo bins filled with

The agent points out that the

when silos are filled with le-
