Bond Prices Steady
In SeIective Trading;
Most Changes Minor
BY Arthur Merims
Assoeioted Press Financial Writer


NEW YORK, Nov. 28.-Highly
selective trading this holiday
shortened week produced a
steady bond market.
Volume of corporate activity
never topped SO million par
value level during any session
and price changes were generally
minor fractions. Railroads and
utilities tended to hold their
ground or improve slightly. IN
dustrials were mixed.
Government bonds showed lit
tie inclination to bulge. The
30-year 3As advanced 1882 from
the previous week at 103 26 /32
bid. Victory loan 21as of 1867
1872 lost 4 1872 at "a 20/32 bid.
The 234s of 1861 rose 2l32 at
100 26/32 bid.
The Government announced a
successful refunding of $40 bill
lion of maturing 21s per cent
notes. The Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn held 81 billion worth and
accepted a new 121a-month 17s
per cent certificate. Sixty per
cent of the remaining holders
took 21a per cent bonds due 1858.
About $120 million was paid out
in cash.
Foreign liens were fairly quiet.
Japanese and Brazilian dollar
bonds climbed modestly. The
Securities and Exchange Com
mission proposes to make it a
fraudulent, deceptive and ma
nipulative act" for any broker
dealer to trade unvalidated Ger
man bonds over the counter.
It's a precautionary measure,
since no such activity is current

Output Drops Again
During Short Week;
Retail Sales Gain
BY Wolter Breede, Jr.
" AsSoeioted Press Business Writer


NEW YORK, Nov. 28.-The
swing to a buyers market" in
almost everything from kitchen
stoves and automobiles to petro-
leum and steel gained a little
more momentum this week.
Activity in many lines was
slowed by a combination Of cir
cumStances Of which the
Thanksgiving holiday was by no
means the least important.
Auto output fell to it's lowest
level Of the year; steel produc-
ton to its lowest point in Is
months. Freight car traffic con-
tinued, to lag behind 1852: elec-
trio power output declined; busi-
ness failures were higher than
in any week since January, 1850.
Retailers Benefit.
Bright spot on the economic
panorama included retail trade.
Early Christmas shopping ac-
tivity helped to increase retail
sales above the cord-breaking
volume Of a year ago in practi-
cally all Of the Nation except in
the Northeast, where sales held
at or near 1852 levels.
Merchants expressed renewed
confidence in their ability to set
new records in Yuletide business.
The relatively low steel pro-
duction rate this week (87.6 per
cent Of capacity reflected a
railroad strike in the Pittsburgh
area.
Statistics Cited.
The latest batch of statistical
reports from the Federal Gov
ernment'S economic pulse-takers
this week indicate that any COM
ing business dip will be a decline
from extremely high levels. /
The Federal Reserve Board
said production of goods and
services in 1858 will break all
previous records, despite the fact
that activity has "Slackened
somewhat" during the second
half.
The board estimated 1855
"gross national product" (total
market value of all goods and
services produced) at 1868 bill
lion-up 5 per cent from last
year to an all-time high.

was reported on the skids to-
night for opposing new Soviet
backed efforts for unity of Ger

Such action runs contrary to
the current de-Sovietizing poll
icy undertaken in East Germany
in the maneuverings Of the post
Stain regime of Premier Georgi
Malenkov in Moscow.
A leading West Berlin Social
ist newspaper, Telegraf am

The newspaper said the Polit-
buro unanimously censured Ul-
BRIGHT. the Communist Party
secretary general and deputy
premier, in a secret session 48
hours after his drastic Sovietiz-
ing measures were repudiated by
the East German government on
Moscow'S orders.
Accused Of "Shattering Trust"
The Politburo was reported to
have accused Ulbricht of SHAT
tering the trust of the workers
and party, endangering the eco
nomic buildup Of the Soviet zone,
wrecking serious efforts for Ger
many's reunif1cation and hinder
ing the start Of serious East

scrapped in the Soviet zone.

objective was to defeat West
Germany's pro-American. chan

up for reelection this summer,
and to prepare for the unifica-
