STAR, WASHINGTON, IBOND LIST STRONG; TRADING LIGHTER Foreign Issues Display Strength in Today’s Deal- ings—New Highs Recorded. BY GEORGE T. HUGHES. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, June 17.—Volume of trading in bonds fell off today, largely because of the diversion of interest to the stock market, but the session was not without several unusually interesting incidents; Two new high records were made in the United States Government hond list. The tax-exempt Li 3768 went to a new top for 1926 under buying for account of wealthy in cstors anticipating the loss of the 350,000 tax exemption on other Lib ertys on July 1. Treasury 3%s also sold at a new high point. "~ The lower coupon rate Government bonds are favored hy those who believe that the trend of the vield basis is steadily downward. Other Government obliga- tions ranged around their previous best prices. HEADS GABRIEL SNUBBER. NEW YORK, June 17 ().
