Stock Market Quiet,
Prices Register'0nIy
Minor Variations
By the Associafsd Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-Traders
showed little inclination to take
an aggressive stand today and
prices showed only minor varia-
tons.
Business dropped off to one OF
the lowest rates in recent weeks.
Occasional flurries of activity
helped to lift volume but on the
whole trading was half-hearted.
The market now is at the 1949
high established Friday and just
under it's 1948 peak. The last
week of the year usually produces
higher stock prices but there is
some question in the financial
district whether an advance this
week-if the market does advance
will amount to much. The
market has been on the way up
since mid-June and profit taking
operations can be expected to be-
come more and more vigorous as
prices curve upward.
Several railroad stocks did bet
ter than average. Nickel Plate
added a full point at one time
while smaller gains were posted
for Santa Fe, Pennsylvania. Balti-
more & Ohio, and Southern Pa
cific. Chesapeake g. Ohio and
New York Central, however. re-
fused to go along.
Also up were United States
Steel, Republic Steel, United
States Rubber, Montgomery Ward,
International Harvester, Philco,
United Gas Corp. Phelps Dodge,
Homestake Mining, Du Pont, Air
Reduction, American Can, Inter-
national Paper, Gulf Oil, Trans
continental g. Western Air, and
Johns anville.
Lower were Chrysler, Bethle-
hem. Steel, Goodyear, Woolworth,
Lockheed, Admiral Corp, Zenith.
Pepsi Cola. American Telephone.
Dow Chemical, General Electric.
Philip Morris, Texas Co., and Le-
high Portland Cement.
Corporate bonds were trimmed
here and there. United States
Government issues acted a bit
droopy in over-the-counter deal
ings.
