Home Building Should Stay
AT High Level, Bankers Saw
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

CHICAGO. Dec. 14.-Home
building and other construction
should remain on a high level next
year. a banker told his colleagues
today.
Wendell T. Burns. Minneapolis
banker and head of the Real Es-
tate Mortgage Committee of the
American Bankers Association,
stated:
while the Government wishes
to hold residential construction to
100000 units. it appears at this
time not to want to curb the build
ing industry below that figure.
'"These $4,000 units are esti-
mated to more than meet the
ordinary requirements of family
formations and normal housing
obsolescence.
Unless the Korean war and the
defense, program induce more
severe controls, 1851 should be an
other big year for the construction
industry. To the proposed 850, 900
residential units must be added
ether normal building and defense
construction"
MIR. Burns spoke at the ABA's
national credit conferences
meeting of more than 1000 bank
officers.

There was a large demand for
many lines of apparel this week.
The aggregate dollar volume was
moderately above the level for the
similar 1949 week. While suits,
coats and dresses were increas-
ingly sought by Christmas shop
pers, the bulk of the purchasing
was for small items such as Access

Stock Market Revives
Slightly After Price
Decline al Opening
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-The
stock market tried to struggle
back to stable price ground today
after an opening decline.
The effort was only partially
successful. Losses running to
more than 81 a share were reduced
in many cases and a hand-picked
group of stocks edged into the
plus column. The bulk of the
market, however, remained slight
ly lower.
Trading slowed after initial SELL
ing pressure let up.
Most popular stocks were tex
tiles, aircrafts and some rails.
Yesterday afternoon burst of
selling knocked down railroad is
sues and quickly spread to other
groups. In short order losses
piled up to an extreme of around
81 share before the selling died
down. Concern over a wildcat rail
strike was credited as a major
factor.
The strike is still on. In addi-
ton traders were a bit jittery over
what President Truman may say
in a radio address to the Nation
scheduled for tonight.
