FINANCIAL. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1929 FINANCIAL," it - CURB SHARES GAIN AFTER EARLY DROP Relief of Credit Tension Is! Followed by Resumption of Advance. BY HARRY H. BECKER. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, May 9.— Lower call money rates checked an early reaction which temporarily unsettled prices on| the curb exchange today and brought about & substantial recovery all around. Before the lending charge Ww: marked down the speculative element seemed to show real alarm over the 14 per cent renewal figure and offered many issues in heavy volume. Although there was a fairly general reaction, this | failed to produce any real liquidation and when pressure lifted quotations re- bounded readily. Although the transfer of the most popular recent utility issue to the big board took some of the zest out of the group, it did not hurt volume or dimin- ish interest in stocks like American Superpower, Electric Bond & Share, Allied Power & Light and Electric In- vestors. Most of these turned down- ward after initial buoyancy and the last named was the feature. It climbed sev- eral points on top of the recent big rise, but subsequently came down 3 or 4 points. The deelines in United Light & Power A, Southeastern Power, United Gas Improvement and American & For- eign Power warrants were more abrupt. Reactionary tendencies also appeared in aviation shares after Fokker and Douglas had reached new highs. Strength of Fokker was especially sur- prising, in view of the denial of reports that two concerns were fighting for control of the company in the open market. Douglas was influenced by fa- vorable expansion news and its current high rate of production. Although sell- ing affected most of the other: airplane issues, declines were small. Better exhibition of the oils on the 8tock Exchange was without effect on related issues, the majority of which were comparatively heavy. Lion Oil lost part of its recent strength in the face of announcement that a block of the issue has been listed on the Chicago Exchange and predictions that earnings this year would be more than $6.50 a share on the outstanding stock. Trans- continental Oll preferred rose several points to a new high peak. while New York showed no effect whatever of the recent dividend declaration.
