BY GEORGE T. HUGHES. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, April 6—Trading in bonds was only falrly brisk today, but prices were firm and here and there there were actual points of strength One of these was in Delaware and Hudson convertible 5s, which ran up over "2 points in sympathy with the stock into which they were con- vertible. Up to October 1, 1927, the conversion price is at the rate of $1,600 principal amount of bonds for 10 shares of stock and the stock is selling at a price which makes con- version profitable. Dealings in this issue were unusually large. Government Hondx Gnin, United tes vernment honds were mostly higher with the Treas- ury 4%s the lcaders, touching 105. This maturity is held for permanent investment Lo a Rreater extent than the Liberties. Of the latter the sec- ond 43 W among the most active today vings bank railroad mort- gages were generally higher and there was d demand for high grade public utility issues such as Brooklyn Edison general bs. Kelly Springficld bonds were also higher. Wilxon Liens Strong. Wilson and Company convertible 7148 were Strong, up a point on sales of large blocks while the first 6s gained fractionally. Magma Copper convertible 7s were the leaders of the copper group, Eaining nearly 2 points. Chicago Railways 5s contin ued heavy below 81. Selling which was pronounced on Friday and Saturday appearcd to have abated. Some interest was shown in the Hudson and Manhattan income §s in connection with the strength in the stock. French Issues Steady. contrast with the weakness of last week French bonds were fairly steady today. Lifting of the selling pressure on the French list led to some buying of Belgian bonds, princi- pally the new 6s and 6. The principal new issues were §1.- 500,000 Omaha (Nebraska) 414 school district bonds, due 1955, to yield about 4.15 per cent, and $1,00,000 Central Power and Light 6%s, due 19, par., In* MERGER OF BAKING FIRMS CALLED OFF Inability to Acquire Various Units Forces Abandoning of Present Plans. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, April tions for the merger of several w England and Middle Western baking companies into the Empire Baking Corporation, recently organized for that purpose, were abandoned today and all stock subscriptions for the new corporation have been canceled Inability to acquire the various units involved in the new consolida- tion before April 1, the time limit set when stock subscriptions were solicited, is the reason given for abandonment of the plans. Sub- scribers have been informed that no stock will be issued and that the full amount of the subscriptions will be returned with 8 per cent interest { from April 1, the date when dividends would begin to accrue on the class “A” stock. The companies involved in the mer- ger were the Consumers’ Bread Co. lof Kansas City, with nine plants; | the Gordon-Pagel Co. of Detroit, with four plants, and the New England Baking Co., with nine plants. | i | B M50 ON NEXT STOCK MOVE Major Downward Turn or Mere Reaction Is Now Puzzling Traders.” NEW YORK. April 6—Stock market observers still are divided in their nnlnlon! as to whether the recent decline in pr s was the beginning of a major downward movement or merely a reaction in a “bull” market. Chart readers find plenty of evidence to support both views. There is a growing unanimity of opinfon, however, that If the pext main trend of the market is upward, buylng will be of a more selective character. The bullish demonstra- tions last week in the motors and ofls, which generally are conceded to have the most promising imme- diate outlook, lend color to this theory of selectivity. ‘WOOL UNSETTLED TODAY. BOSTON, April 6 (Special).—The raw wool market started the new week unsettled, with quotations largely nominal and mills still hesi- tant about buying more than imme- diately required. Wool stocks are low, fine st territories being scarcely available at all in large quantities. Foreign markets appear steadier than the domestic markets, which apparently cannot be consid- ered #s vet stabilized. CHICAGO, April 6 (Special).—Sales of Montgomery Ward & Co. increas- ed nearly $3,300,000 in March, as cora- pared with February, despite lower farm commodity prices. March sales totaled $16,019,000.
