Washington news was ebout a standoff, brokers said. While a jot or two of cheer was derived from the indications of a breaking up of the legislative jam contained in the Senate's defeat of the McCarran wage emendment, the President’s signing of a resolution appropriating $750,000 for an investigation of American Telephone & Telegraph was meas- ured by a drop of 2 points in the shares. ‘The market setback did not amount to much in the aggregate. The Associated Press average of 60 stocks declined only 0.2 of a point to 35.2 Trading rocked along at a slightly slower hourly rate than the preced- ing session, with only 300.500 shares traded.

Steel gave up 'z a point, General Electric was down 4 to 21%, while Kennecot moved up ® to 15.

Cotton continued to drag with losses running from $1.10 to $1.35 a bale. Wheat at Chicago was 35 to % cents a bushel lower, while corn declined 1, to more than a cent a bushel. Swaying currencies took up most attention along with musings on the dollar. Some saw in the Treasury call of all the first Liberty bonds, a high wall to be hurdled by those who have long wanted to jump into the soft 84% Adams Expr p! 5) X 70- 3315 2815 Adams Millls (2) 24 8 Addressograph. 6% AfMllated Prod (600 x llfih 106 Afr Reduction (3).. 1 Afr-Way Elec Appl. 5 15% Alaska Jun (11 20). 315 2 Albany Wrap Paper 1% 1 Alleg Corp (k). ... 17 2% Alleg pf widow(k), 615 215 Alleg pf w40w (k). 6% 213 Alleg pfx W (k). 23 21 Allegheny Stl (1) 141 177 ‘ZI 17 b 127% Allted Chem (6). % 12 Allis-Chalmers. 108 14 Alpha PortCmt (1) 6 2% Amal Leather. ... 18 26% Amal Leath pt ((32) 2 48Y% Amerada Corp (2).. 18 45% Am Ag Chem Del(2)x ll 18% Am Bank Note. ... 43 Am Bank N pf (3). xlSDl 9% 221 Am Brake Shoe 80c. 9 36 111 1 3 14% b1% 2315 122% 119 Am Brake Sh pf (7) 110s :‘2_? 1 123 110 AmCan (5)....... 20% 10 Am Car & Foundry. 25% Am Car & Found pf. 8 Am Chain. 38 Am Chain pf 66 Am Chicle (+3%) 2% Am Colortype . 22% Am Comel Alcohol. 6% Am Crystal Sugar. 57% Am Crystal Sug pf. 1% Am Ensaustic. ... 2 Am & Foreign Pwr. 1214 Am & For Pw pf (8) 14 Am & For Pw pf (7) 37 Am & For Pw 2d pf, 10 Am Hawafan SS(1) 2!
