(Compiled by the Associated Press.) 1.1 1.4 1.9 68.9 4.7 70.8 13.0 1937 By tne Associated Press NEW YORK, April 28 —With con- wvertible issues under pronounced pres- sure, corporate loans drifted mostly lower in the bond market today, while United States Government obligations gained moderately. Loans with stock conversion priv- fleges which felt the weight of sell- ing owing to lower share prices were the American Typefounders issue of 1950, off about 10; Youngstown Sheet & Tube, off more than a point; Stude- baker 6s, down around 8, and Pure Oil 4145, about 4 lower. Medium-priced obligations fractions to & point or so down were St .Paul 55, International Telephone 5s, Mis- souri Pacific 55 and Walworth 4s. United States Treasury obligations up about 1-32 to 3-32 of a point or %0 were the 2'»s, the 23%s of 1959 and the 2%s of 1947. Guaranteed loans turned in even wider gains. INSURANCE STOCKS NEW YORK.
