NEW YORK, Dec. ga post
holiday apathy settled over the
stock market today and brought
on a mixed price trend.
Gains ran to little more than
a dollar share at the most, and
losses were ofsan equal size.
Airlines stood out in front on
the upside after an early burst of
activity. When the buying pace
settled down they held most of
their gains. - -...
Automobiles moved up at the
same time with even greater ac-
tivity. Later. however, the group
turned irregular and see-sawed in
a range measured by few cents.
Aircrafts were higher without
much buying pressure. Rails
turned in spotty performance
lacking anything of particular
note. -.....
Gold shares were definitely low
er as were distillers and most of
the building materials issues.
Higher were Bethlehem Steel,

Israel Government
Is Not Worried
About Communists

WASHINGTON, (JTA)-Israel
Ambassador Abba Eban told the
National Press Club that Israel
has many anxieties but that he
does not consider any internal
Communist threat among them.
To a question on whether the
Communists might seize power in
Israel, Mr.. Eban replied that, in
contrast to some other countries,
there was little Communist influ-
ence on Israel workers. Asked
why the us. should grant eco
nomic aid to Israel when that
country has a Socialist" govern
ment, Mr.. Eban explained that
opposition to Communism in Is
rael is strongest in the Labor Or
ganizations which support the
governing party.
