BY STANLEY W. PRENOSIL, Assoctated Prezs Financial Editor. NEW YORK, January 24.—Heavy week end profit taking and a renewal of short selling impeded the recovery of stock prices today after scores of issues had been marked up 1 to nearly 9 points in the early trading. The early afternoon selling movement car- ried several issues 1 to 4 points below their earlier high levels, Trading showed a marked expansion in volume, sales in the first two hours running more than half a million shares above those of the same period yesterday. The improvement in speculative senti ment was reflected in the more cheerful advices of the leading commission houses, and the large increase in the number of buying recommendations. Some observers, however, called atten- tion to the 1m that the sharp reduc- tion in the short interest in many issues had impaired the market's technical position, The excellent showing made by the Bethlehem Steel Corporation last year aroused hopes of an even more favor- able report by the United States Steel Corporation after the close of the common was marked up 2'; points to 177%, but ran into some realizing around that figure and yielded about a point. Bethlehem crossed par for a % | gain of more than 2 pol its. General Electric (OM stock) jumped 8% points, Atlas Powder and Warren Bros. each sold higher, J. I Case ex- tended its gain to 574 points and Brook- lyn Union Gas, Advance Rumely com- mon and ferred, Eastman Kodak. Jersey Cent Otis Elevator, United snm Industrial Alcohol, Auburn Auto, Columbian Carbon, Westinghouse Elec- tric and Western Union_ were among. the many issues to sell 3 to 5 points higher. ‘There were still a few soft spots scat- tered throughout the list.
