Trading was largely professional and sentiment appeared to be bearish for the time being. The assignment to creditors of a Philadelphia investment banking firm, the relatively poor showing made by several western roads in their December earnings statement, the omission of the dividend on nual reports all influenced the sell- in the so-called “merger rails” and the lack of any authentic informa- i ments also weakened bullish enthu- siasm, Among the stocks which were prominent in the sporadis rallies that took place throughout the ses- ision were Bangor and Aroostook, Columbia Carbon, Hudson Motor, Mack Trucks, Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron, Pressed Steel Car, Radio Corporation and Timken Roller Bearing, The sharp break in Chesapeake and Ohio was based on reports that the revised Van Sweringens merger { plan, which is understood to make | that road the chief unit, will involve the issuance of new atock to pWovide for an exchange with the stocks of | other constituent roads.
