Rails and Oils Lead
SeIective Recovery
In Quiet Dealings
By Roder Winqet
Assoeioted Press Finaneiol Writer

NEW YORK, Sept. 28.-A rally in
rails and oils pulled the stock mar
ket higher today in quiet trading.
The reversal regained small
part of yesterdays sharp losses,
which forced the market down to
the early April level of prices.
A rush of business at the open
ing of trading found quotations
mixed to slightly lower, but this
pattern soon dissolved into a def
nitely higher movement as the
rails and oils gathered momentum
enough to pull the others to the top
side by fractions to points. Much
of this gain held in later trading.
+ The strength in rails was traced
to a second look investors gave to
the favorable reports on rail oper-
ating income for August released in
the last few days.
In the oil group Phillips Petroleum
was a favorite with a gain running
to more than 2 points at one time.
The company announced a 35-cent-
per-barrel increase in the price it
will pay for crude Of all grades.
The announcement evoked SUI
prised comment from a number of
oil men, but there was no imme-
diate indication whether other
major companies would follow the
lead.
Some of the stocks moving up l
to 2 points at one time were Santa
Fe, Southern Pacific, Southern
Railway, Rock Island. Sinclair,
Standard Oil of New Jersey, Rich
field, United States Steel, Repub-
lie Steel, Oliver Corp, American
Woolen, Kennecott and Texas Co.
