NEW YORK, April 20—Rail liens and some other recent favorites in the bond market edged higher today in | elatively slow trading. United States Governments were not so well sup- ported and some Treasurys were down as much as 10- of a point shortly after the opening. The market for the Federals was ob- viously in a waiting mood in connec- tion with the President’s budget mes- sage, although financial and invest- ment circles believed the major re- quirements had been well set forth in the President’s overnight prelimi- nary outline. For the further moderate advance achieved by a number of the carrier loans, trading circles advanced the opinion that buyers were counting on an uninterrupted rise in revenues this year, and on a satisfactory ad- | justment of wage questions now be- | fore rail managements. Gains ranged up to a point in Great Northern 4s, Baltimore & Ohio s, St. Paul 5s, Chicago & Northwestern 4%s, Erie 5s, M. K. T. 5s.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, April 20.—Automo- bile trade circles said today the used- car situation should prove no obstacle to sales of new motors this Spring. Several months ago the used-car supply was said to have occasioned some concern to dealers. Observers noted that apparently large numbers of second-hand motors had accumu- lated in and around major cities. Just how heavy these inventories were, the trade had no idea, inasmuch as comprehensive estimates for the Nation at large were unavailable. Motor men who keep in close touch with dealers currently report the total of new cars has been reduced mate- rially in the past few months. The reason for this, they say, was that production shut-downs by Gen- eral Motors and Chrysler gave dealers a chance to concentrate on clearing out numerous old motors which other- wise might now be an appreciable handicap to sales of new models. Inventories of old cars increased heavily in some sections last Fall, it was reported, owing to the eagerness with which dealrers went into the fleld with an eye on possible sales of new models this Spring. Following & practice common in the industry, they took the old units as down payments on the new. Sales of used cars normally follow the same seasonal pattern as new motors, advancing sharply to a top in April or May and then falling gradu- ally for the rest of the year.

Federal Reserve member banks liquidated more Government securi- ties during the week ended April 14. ‘The Federal Reserve Board's state- ment of bank conditions in 101 cities showed that holdings of direct Fed- eral obligations dropped $63,000,000 to $8,457,000,000, while fully guaran- teed Government issues declined $6,- 000,000 to $1,183,000,000.
