Stock Market Shows
Narrow Trend With
Slight Upside Slant
BY the AssoeiotedlPress

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-A mar
row trend somewhat to the up
side developed today in the stock
market.
Prices seldom strayed very far
from their previous close. and
many shifted between plus and
minus in an idle manner.
Volume held up rather well at
ia rate of around a IL million
shares for the entire day, about
the same as yesterday.
Railroads, few oils and some
non-ferrouS and metals and
chemicals kept to the upside.
Steels were ahead early in the
session and then sagged. Auto
mobiles, distillers and quite a few
miscellaneous stocks were lower.
Selective trading was an out
standing characteristic of the mar
ket all along.
Packard was lower after start
ing on a block of 1000 shares of
B at AZ. Directors yesterday
TOOK no dividend action.
National Distillers opened on q
block Of 5000 shares off % at a
new low of 81, and then proceeded
to slip lower. Directors yesterday
said they intended to halve the
5O-cent quarterly dividend next
month.
Both were quite active. On the
upside and active were Mona Elec-
trlc which opened on a block of
1900 shares, up "a at 14A and
then moved higher, and st. Regis
Paper, which started on a block
of 1000 shares. up y at 81. and
continued at around that price.
Also higher were Baltimore &
Ohio, United Gas, Phelps Dodge
Homestake Mining, Standard Oil
New Jersey, Amerada Petroleum
and Zenith.
Lower were Youngstown Sheet
I& Tube, Chrysler, MONTGOMERY
Ward. Douglas Aircraft, Schenley
industries, Air Reduction and
United States Gypsum.
Stocks on the Curb Exchange
were higher for the most part with
some tagging sections. Highe,
were Eastern States Corp, Beck
man Instrument, United Shoe Ma
chinery and Sterling, Inc. Lower
were OKiep Copper and Serrick
Corp. "B."
Corporate bonds were steady
and quiet. United States Gov.
lernments in the over-the-counte,
market were also steady.
