Wheat traders sand the European and
South American crcrs are being closely

mostly planted under ideal conditions and
is said to be making good progress. There
was considerable speculation respecting

Stocks Drift Lower
As Trading FaIfers;
Indeeision Apparent
BY the Assoeia,ed Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-Stocks
mllled around quietly today in a
slightly lower market. There was
"a great deal of indecision about
the whole thing, and there were
few features.
One of these was Canadian Pa
Icific, which opened on a block of
5000 shares, off IA at 36, and in
later trading cut it's loss down a
bit.
Railroads were mixed over q
range of less than a point either
way. Oils were down from frac-
tions to around point. Utilities
were steady, and gains were scat
tered through the steels, chem
icals, gold mining issues and mo-
tion pictures. Most of the other
groups were definitely lower, al
though by a fractional margin.
Stocks losing ground today in
cluded Republic Steel, Goodyear,
Montgomery Ward, j. I. Case,
Douglas Aircraft, Radio Corp.
American Smelling, Westinghouse
Electric, Armour & Co., Santa Fe,
Northern Pacific, Standard Oil of
California, Amerada Petroleum,
and Eastern Air Lines.
Higher were New York Central,
Union Pacific, Paramount Pic
lures, Homestake Mining, Allied
Chemical, Du Pont, Bethlehem
Steel, and Union Carbide.
Corporate bonds were narrowly
higher. Governments in the over
the-counter market were steady.

New York Cotton

NEW YORK. Dec. II R,.-Cotton fu-
lures developed renewed weakness today
eA increased hedging and liquidation.
Losses extended to as much as 335 a
bale before the market recovered slightly
on short covering and trade buying. The
market continued nervous, with traders
inclined to take profits on the possibility
that producers will sell cotton more ac-
lively. Traders were uncertain that ex-
port controls may be restored which would
eliminate the threat Of serious squeeze in
cotton supplies toward the end of the
season.
Noon prices were les to $40 a bale
lower than the previous close December,
