Stocks Rally
In Moderately
Active Trading

NEW YORK, Sept. 4 (AP).-
The stock market rallied mildly
in moderately active trading
early this afternoon.
Wall Street showed relief
that the Federal Reserve Board
had not raised the discount
rate, as was generally expected
for late yesterday.
Prices moved ahead briskly
at the start. Then the best
gains were sliced and the mar
ket's pattern became irregularly
higher at best.
Key stocks kept gains run
ming from fractions to q point
or more, but an assortment Of
small losers appeared.
The trend was mostly higher
among. stecis, motors, rubbers,
aircraft. oils, drugs and cleo
tronics.
Coppers we're lower. Chemi-
Gals and tobaccos were mixed.
American Motors continued
to enjoy brisk demand and was
up about a point.
The other motors slid OF
from their best early prices. as
did steels. Youngstown Sheet
gained more than a point.
Lukens was up around a point
and United States Steel q
fraction.
High-fiying Texas Instru-
ments cut back an early 4
point Jump to about a point.
Thiokol. still benefiting from
its new rocket contract, picked
up a couple more.
Boeing added a point more
on prospects Of big orders for
new bombers. other airci ats
were narrowly higher.
Radio Corp. fell more than a
point. Anaconda's drop Of
about a point depressed the
metals section.
Gains o fabout a point were
scored by Texaco. Johns-Man-
vile. Goodrich, Union Carbide,
Merck. Goodyear and Raytheon
Corporate bonds were mixed
Government bonds showed q
little fading strength.

CHICAGO. Sept. 4 (AP).-Crain
futures prices scarcely budged from
their previous closes In draggy early
dealings today on the Board Of Trade.
Several contracts were UNCHANGED
during the. first several minutes and
most fluctuations were limited to
minimum fractions.
Pakistan was understood to be in
the market for q small amount Of
hard wheat, but Brazil. which had
been expected to take about 3 mil
lion bushels. took less than q million.
Trade was at q standstill near the
end Of the first hour with wheat u

The improved prospects for corn
raised estimated yield to record

On that outlook. dealers say they
can scarcely see any likelihood OF

Heat Dumps
Retail Sales

NEW YORK. Sept. 4 (AP)-
The steel strike and hot, sticky
weather put a damper on retail
sales this week, according to a
Dun 81 Bradstreet, Inc, survey.
Sales Of air conditioners,
automobiles and swimsuits
climbed, but purchases Of fall
apparel. back-to-school toys,
furniture. linens. Grapes, floor
coverings. TV sets and home
appliances were down-sharply
in some cases-from the same
week last year.
Total dollar volume Of re-
tail trade for the week ended
Wednesday was estimated by
Dun & Bradstreet at from / to
5 per cent lower than a year
ago.
