Early Move Forward
BY the Assoeiofad Press

NEW YORK, June 12.-Slight-
lily early progress today in tn e
stock market was smothered by
scattered selling and price
turned highly mixed.
The spread Of prices was about

was no regularity in the reaction
|of major divisions.
Steels. motors, chemicals, and
Iairlincs were mostly lower. Utili-
ties and rails were mixed. Aircraft
and distillers made fractional
progress.
The early advance gave some
hope to the bullish contingent in
Wall Street that the rise of the
past two weeks would be continued
today. But hesitation and some
soft areas in the list blocked that
avenue at least temporarily.
