Transactions
.At New Record
By the Associated Press

The end of 1855 saw United
States transactions with foreign
countries-in the form of trade,
aid or investment-at the high
est level ever reached.
Reporting this today, the Com
merce Department said that dur
ing the final quarter of last year
this country sent abroad $50
billion worth of goods and serv-
ices, the highest quarterly
amount ever recorded.
This total included about $400
million worth of gift military
supplies and services for allied
countries. However, the outflow
of United States goods and serv-
ices in the last three months OF
1855 was a record even without
counting military shipments.
United States payments to for
eign countries for goods and
services were also said to have
reached a record high. at S4,-
SGT, 100000.
For the year 1855, the depart
ment said, this country sent
abroad approximately $2l.8 bill
lion worth of its goods and serv-
ices-a rise of nearly a billion
over the 1854 total.
This included shipments of
military aid valued at $2l billion.
Military aid shipments in 1855
were about 81 billion less than in
1854, but commercial exports and
economic aid exports together
rose by about So billion over 1854

NEW YORK. Mar. 27 (P). -
Weakness in the copper shares
spread to the rest of the stock
market today.

points. Most of the time losses
ranged from / to around 3
points. The list as whole was
down fractionally. Some indi-
vidual issues made strong ad-
vances.
Trading was swift.
Coppers are under pressure
because of declining world
prices for the metal.
Aircrafts were higher and
some railroads advanced.
Bath Ironworks was up be-
tween l and 2 points and Bab-
cock & Wilcox advanced be-
tween 3 and 4 points.
Among stocks losing ground
were Kennecott Copper, Phelps
Dodge, Inspiration Copper, Lu-
kens Steel, General Motors,
General Electric, American Tele-
phone, Southern Pacific and
Standard Oil IN. j.
Higher were Boeing, General
Dynamics, United Aircraft,
Northern Pacific and Richfield
Oil.
With prices so high, brokers
in Wall Street have been antic-
Iipating the type of reaction that
comes at the end of any long
drive ahead.
Corporate bonds were easy.
Government issues traded over
