Stocks Forge Higher
Along Broad Front
In Active DEALINGS
BY the Associotsd Press

NEW YORK, Oct. broad de-
mand carried the stock market
ahead again today.
Gains ranged to points and more.
Numerous blocks of 1000 shares or
more changed hands in the busiest
market in more than a week.
Oils took prominent part in the
move, along with steel, rail, distiller
and auto stocks.
Buying was Influenced by de-
crease in tension over relations be-
tween Russia and the Western Pow
ers, as well as specific news affecting
individual issues.
Many traders apparently took the
view that during the present recess
of the U. N. Security Council, the
Russians might cool of and take a
different view on lifting the Berlin
blockade. In any case, the recess
had the effect of postponing an
immediate showdown.
In the forefront of the advance
were such issues as Goodyear Tire
tat a new high for the year,, Nickel
Plate, Chicago g. North Western
preferred, Santa Fe, Plymouth Oil,
American Distilleries, j. P. Stevens,
Amerada Petroleum, Texas Pacific
Land Trust, Lion Oil, Barber Oil,

gomery Ward. Electric Power e.
Light, International Nickel, Westing-
house Electric, Philip Morris, In
ternalional Paper and goth Century
Fox.
Higher in the curb were United
Shoe Machinery. Bunker Hill &,
Sullivan, American Meter, Cities
Service and Cheesebrough Mfg.
Railway issues tended upward in
the bond market. United States
Governments held steady in over
the-Counter dealings.
