the start. The tendency be-
came slightly lower as trading
progressed.
Steels, motors. aircrafts, oils,

was cautious. Prices were near

continued. Uncertainty was
heightened by the situation in
the Formosa Strait and the
possibility of an auto strike.

points to its rise of yesterday
as rumors continued that a
stock split and higher dividend
were likely. Firestone, which
leaped about four points yes
terday on similar rumors,
slipped more than a point.

again performance resumed,
this time with a l-point bulge
to the upside. Similar gains
we're shown by Foster-W Wheeler
and Gerber which were in fairly
brisk demand. United States

a point.

Most of the blue chips per-
formed indifferently. United
