Jan. 30 (P)—The stock market was extremely unsettled to- | day as call money rose to 8 per cen' | Tor the first time since the middle of the month. A score of importan issues lost about 2 to ¢ points, but | strong buying continued in the utili- ties, lifting several to new higi | levels. Call money renened at 7 and was litted to 8 in the earlv afternoon. Calling of loans was slight, but re- Macement funds were scarce. The peak of the month-end money strain is not expected until tomorrow, and although the banks are in fairly good pasitions at the Federal Reserve bank they appearcd reluctant to ii-| crease their porrowings to support | the market. Fears of 10 per cont | money tomorrow nounced. Other unsettling factors were {he selling of U. 8.
