Steel Share Buying
Gives Market Lift;
Motors Also Gain
By the Asseeiated Prass

NEW YORK, Jan. 18.-Stepped-
up demand for steel shares gave
the entire stock market a shove
ahead today.
Buying of steel issues expanded
in the face of possible severe cur
tailment of steel output if the coal
strike should continue much
longer. The number of coal
miners now on strike is approach
ing 100000 men, out of a total
working force of about 10000.
Higher prices for steel issues
evidently reflected the widespread
expectation that governmental in
tervention will avoid severe pro-
duction damage.
The steel group, which shared
the trading spotlight with the
autos, advanced an extreme of
more than a point.
The motors advanced frac-
tionally, which was also the case
for most other issues.
1FaulIlg acClVlty picked up
speed as prices advanced. Early
volume, though, was the smallest
in some time.
Higher prices were paid for
United States Steel, Bethlehem
Steel, Republic Steel, Youngstown
Sheet, General Motors, Chrysler,
Studebaker, Goodyear, United
States Rubber. Sears Roebuck,

American Telephone. Common
wealth Edison, Allied Chemical,
Dow Chemical. American Can,
American Tobacco, Santa Fe,
Nickel Plate. Standard Oil IN. J.)
and Certain-teed.
Corporate bonds moved mar
rowly. United States Govern
ments in the long-term bracket
tended to back down a trife in
over-the-counter dealings.

Bank Deposits Near Peak.
Deposits of $1,037, ,780,914 in 10
washington banks on December /,
1949, were the highest since
June 80, 1916. when the figure was
S1.036, ,260,915.
The high point at the year-end
was noted today by j. Russell
Bolton, auditor of the National
Savings & Trust Co.. in an analy-
sis of the recent call issued by the
Controller of the Currency.
The overall gain in the last two
months of 1949 amounted to
32,422,694. However, the show
ing was really better than that.
Treasury funds on deposit de-
creased by 1,099,749, which means
that regular deposits really gained
$33, ,522,444.
In recent years there have been
sweeping changes in Treasury
funds carried in the District banks.
On December 81, 1945, Treasury
War Loan deposits totaled $780,
317.989. These funds have now
been reduced to $14,536,143, a de-
crease of $154,781,846. To make
up such drop with regular" de-
posits has been no small task.
