Tho extent of the trading ts indicated by the fact that approximately three score issues reached their highest prices of the year in the days turn- pver. Sales approximated 1,000,000 shares. Traders showed little inclination to remain uncovered in the final hour, the growing investment demand caus- ing extensive buling of popular sea- soned stocks by short interests.
