Market Shifts
Inst Range;
Trading Quiet

NEW YORK. Aug. 10 P.-
Quiet irregularity was the key
note Of the stock market today.
The market moved narrowly
both higher and lower at various
times. but prices seldom got out
side Of a range of a point either
way.
Trading was brisk at the OPEN
ing Of trading. but then it slowed
to a walk. The pace was well
below that Of yesterday when
business amounted to 1850. 900.
The market yesterday was mixed.
Trading attention was focused
on a few groups such as the
steels. oils, coppers and several
individual issues.
Most major divisions were
mixed to lower. Motors main
tanned a steady front.
The corporate bond market
was slightly higher. Government
issues trading over the counter
were lower.
