BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, May pa major
selling wave hit the stock market
today and drove prices down Sc
verely.
Traders rushed to sell with such
huge offerings that the high-speed
ticker tape fell as much as five
minutes behind in reporting the
actual course of business on the
floor Of the exchange.
At that point the exchange re-
sorted to the seldom used prac-
tice of giving flash prices" di-
rectly from the floor so that
traders could keep abreast of the
market.
This is the fourth consecutive
day that the market has gone
down. 1t is now only slightly
above the lowest point of the year
reached January g.. Three weeks
ago today the stock market
touched a new high for the year
which in turn was the best in
more Cnan 2O years.
The sharp fall reflects q general
Wall Street bearishness. The
basis for such thinking, brokers
say, can be traced to uneasiness
over possibilities of peace in Ko-
rea, the Anglo-Iranian oil dis.
