Stock Market Drifts
Moderately Lower
In Quiet Selling
by T. <. AppIeoote

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-Stock
prices drifted to lower levels in to-
days market.
Trading hit a pace about equal
to that maintained in last weeks
sessions, but stimulus on the buy
ing side was lacking. Selling pres
sure failed to develop urgency, but
1t was sufficient to depress leading
issues by fractions to a point.
Uncertainties in the bituminous
coal mining picture helped retard
any bullish enthusiasm. Traders
were content to wait out the No
vember 80 deadline to see if the
truce in the coal fields would be
extended. Railroads. many Of
them dependent on coal carrying
revenue for favorable earnings,
gave up some ground in light deal
ings.
Some stocks which showed early
signs of resistance shifted to the
downside as they progressed. One
of these was Chrysler. on which
traders have been blowing hot and
cold alternatively as discussion
RACES over whether sizable divi-
dend may be expected from the
directors meeting Thursday. After
scoring an advance Of major frac-
tions, the stock dipped into losing
ground.
Disclosure that Sharon Steel
has raised prices of some steel
products by S. a ton failed to
stir a market response in the
stock, which was fractionally
lower at times.
Prominent on the downturn
also were National Steel, Youngs-
town Sheet & Tube, Magnavox
Nickel Plate, Chesapeake & Ohio
Gulf Oil, Texas Co., Westinghouse
Electric, Schenley. Air Reduction
international Nickel and General
Electric.
Holding occasional gains were
United States Industrial Chemi-
cal, Homestake Mining, Union
Carbide, Consolidated Natural
Gas. Kennecott Copper and Wool
worth.
In the Curb. declines were re-
corded for Aluminium Ltd. Alum
mum Co. of America, Louisiana
Land g. Exploration. Imperial Oil
Ltd, Technicolor and Humble Oil
! At higher Levels were Scovill Man.
ufacturing, Creole Petroleum

craft.
Government bonds steadied in
over-the counter dealings today
after recent declines, while corpo-
rate issues showed only minor

$3.50 Loot Recovered
In Teen-Agers' Thefts

Questioning of 25 Silver Spring
area teen-agers during the past
two weeks has resulted in the
recovery of approximately $3.50
worth of wheelbarrow tires and
wheels and assorted radio equip
ment. Montgomery County Police
reported yesterday.
The juvenile craze for motor
scooters was blamed for the theft
of most of the equipment from
construction jobs, according to
Capt. Joseph B. Nolte, in charge
of the Silver Spring station.
Capt. Nolte described the boys
most of whom are first offenders
as coming from "some of oul
finest families" Their ages range
from IA to II. Questioned were
students of the Montgomery
Blair High School, Takoma Park
Junior High School and the Silver
Spring intermediate School, he
said
Parents have been notified in
each case, and all offenders have
been reported to the county juve-
nile authorities for possible action
Capt. Nolte said.
In the Bethesda Chevy Chase
area recently 40 boys were ques-
toned concerning tire thefts, also
used for motor scooters.
