Heavy buy- ing of Sinclair, which opened a point higher, was one of the early features. Initial gains of a point or more also were recorded by General Motors, Allied Chemical, Sears Roe- buck and General Electric, Rumors of impending food merg stimulated the buying of those shares, California Packing soaring 6% points to 164 before the end of the first half hour, and Loose-Wiles Biscuit and Postum Cereal each ad- vancing over a point. General Elec- tric extended its early gain to three points. 'y money rates were again an important factor in the ad- the weekly statement of the al reserve bank showing an other sharp decrease in loans and discounts. Among the many issue to sell a point or more higher were Gulf States Steel, American Can, Southern Railway and Missouri Pa cific preferred. Forefgn exchanges opened steady, demand sterling rul- ing around $4.8 and French franes around 8.76 cents, Expected advances in crude, the Increase in the Pure Oll dividend and rumors of new combinations, at- tended the active buying of the oil shares, Sinclair touching 23%.
