NEW YORK, May 5.-The
stock market drove ahead strong
ly again this week. At the finish,
however, it encountered fairly
substantial selling that blunted
the advance.
The Associated Press average
of go stocks went up three days
out of five for a net gain on the
week of $1.10. 1t closed at
$19l. 80. only 20 cents under the
record high of $191.50 estab-
lished last April 6.
Brokers believe that at least
the first phase of the reaction
has been completed. The gains
this week were well distributed
through a great many major
divisions.

BY WALTER BREEDE, Jr.
Associated Press Business Writer


NEW YORK, May 5.-Business
developed criSs-cross patterns
this week. Some lines speeded
up, some slowed down.
Many of the indicators still
spelled boom.
Government experts said the
latest figures on employment
would show "a million in paying
Jobs in April-an all-time record
for that month. Wage raises
helped push total income to a
new high. Weekly freight car
loadings were the highest since
1851; steel production was close
to peak levels. Corporate earn
ings continued to show stable
gains over last year.
But in other lines there were
tell-tale signs of showdown.
Auto production ebbed to its
lowest level this year. Depart
menu store sales slipped below
year-ago totals: shipments of
corrugated box cartons, a sig
nificant barometer Of economic
activity, reversed a long upward
trend and moved lower; ship
ments of women's outerwear were
down 8 per cent. Manufacturers
inventories of durable goods
climbed while new orders re-
coded.
With soft spots popping up,
the credit policies of the Federal
Reserve Board came in for criti-
cal attention. Some said the
Federal Reserve System had gone
too far when it lacked up its
borrowing rates last month, lift
ing bank rates all over the coun-
try. Others said the screws
on easy credit had not been
frightened enough--and that in
fiationary forces still were RAM

by the liberals as a fatal adj

Harris County's (Houston) 27O-

Spokesman for the liberals,
quickly re-evaluating their
strength after the Credentials
Subcommittee and the State Ex-

1850 am, said they believed they
had a chance to win control, or
lat least some definite conces-

The outcome still seemed
more uncertain than ever before
with both chief factions, the
Loyalist-Liberals and the Mod

Senator Daniel, claiming pub

Petitions in behalf of Gen.

tured speaker at the colorful
Democratic State convention.
Senator Lehman placed Mr..
