By the Associated Press. NEW YORK. August 28.—Following | early heaviness, bonds of the cor- porate division experienced irregular rallying tendencies in the late trad-| ing. but the close still showed a con- siderable number of net losses. United States Governments dis- closed favorable action in comparison with yesterday's erratic course. For the entire session they remained | above yesterday's finals and finished | around the best levels, 1/32 of a point lower to 10/32 higher. ' Special activity in bonds of In- terborough Rapid Transit resulted in sharp gains. Moderate improvement | featured some loans of Southern Pa- | cific, Southern Railway, Loew's &nd Columbia Gas. | Final prices were down in bonds o(] Atlantic Coast Line, Delaware & Hud- son, Nickel Plate, Santa Fe.
