Cautious Movement
Carries Stock Prices
Up as Much as $1-S2
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. ga cau-
tious forward movement today in
the Stock Market carried prices
upward by as much as 81 to So a
share.
The price appreciation was not
accompanied by any particular
buying enthusiasm, but there
were few backward areas in the
list.
Rails, steels, oils, building ma
terials, and radio o-television is
sues made the best showing
among major groups.
To a large extent the advance
was continuation of the strong
buying support that came into the
market late yesterday to halt a
severe and abrupt decline.
Caution was attributed to trad
ers awaiting publication of the
new price-wage control regula-
tions. which has been postponed
almost from hour to hour for
several days.
Wall Street also would like to
get good look at United Ma
tions efforts to bring about some
kind of peace in Korea. Some
hopes for peace were echoed in
Wall Street simply because eff
forts for peace have not been
abandoned.
Granite City Steel jumped more
than points. Directors yesterday
proposed a two-for-one common
stock split.
Bethlehem Steel swung more
than point higher after Slight
ly lower opening.
Also higher were United States
Steel, Republic Steel, General
Motors. New York Central, Balti-
more & Ohio, Southern Pacific,
Standard Oil (N.JD, Texas Co..

Doris FIeeson:

The country is getting ac-
quainted with the Joint Chiefs
Of Staff through their rebuttal
of General Macarthur at just
about the time President Tru-
man is being obliged to con-
slider reshufhing them for the
next two years.
Gen. Omar Bradley'S tour of
duty as Chairman expires in
August. Prior to the Korean
crisis he had planned to retire
on schedule and his book, now
on sale, was timed to coincide
with that event. It is probably
the reason why he felt able to
be so frank about many occur
rences and personalities, such
as the controversial Briton,
Gen. Montgomery.
The statute permits the Pres
ident to continue Gen. Bradley
in Office and the curbstone
opinion around the White House
