Faint Recovery Signs
Appear After Early
Decline in Stocks
By the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 10.-Faint
signs of a rally appeared in the
stock market today after a mild
early decline.
The result was a thorough
scramble of gains and losses, most
of them fractional. There was
no urgency behind the buying or
selling and trading dropped to
a rate even slower than yesterday,
when only $4,000 shares changed
hands.
Brokers continued to talk of
the chances for spring rally, but
claimed that the March Is tax
deadline seemed to be standing
in the way. Selling to raise money
for taxes, however, has been small
thus far.
Higher prices were paid for
United States Steel. Bethlehem,
General Motors, Firestone, Cater
pillar Tractor, Consolidated Edi-
son, Electric Power & Light,
American Smelling, Westinghouse
Electric. Philip Morris, United
States Gypsum, Santa Fe, Great

and Skelly Oil.
Amerada Petroleum lost 2 points
at one time and smaller declines
were posted for Sears Roebuck,
Boeing, Schenley, Cerro de Pasco,
Owens-Illinois, American Woolen,
Chesapeake g. Ohio, Standard Oil
OF New Jersey and Paramount

Higher in the curb were Amer
lean Gas g. Electric, American

turing. Lone Star Gas, Niagara

Railways and Domestic Credit.
O'Okiep Copper slipped with Con-
solidated Mining and Pennroad.

roWly, with some selective demand

Brother Leo says that tn
story is that the white OF t
turtle and the yolk seems to
sist. When the turtle is hatch
ed, the yolk is a little round
ball on the bottom side, and
as the turtle grows, the yolk
slowly disappears and forms
the hard lower she'll
When the turtle is young
the top shell is very soft and
has many little bumps on 1t
and, as the turtle grows old
er, the bumps flatten out ano
the shell gets very hard.
When Leo's turtles get ole
enough to shift for them
selves, he is going to turr
them loose in their n a tiv {
h a bitat so that they may
grow up to be found by some
body else and eventually turr
up in a steaming b boWl or
somebody's table.
