CURB PRICES SHOW STEADINESS TODAY Yolume of Sa]es Lower Than Last Week—Utilities Strong New York, June 10 UP—Pricés followed a fairly steady course in to- day's quiet trading on the curb mar- ket. Public Utilities again held the spotlight and advanced irregularly it the morning before selling was en- countered. The volume of sales was running considerably under last week's average in the face of pros- pects of easy money conditions until mid-month. Southeastern Power & l.ight was the outstanding strong feature of the utilities, but Commonwealth & Southern, which is to control 8outh- eastern Power, slipped. It was re- ported in Wall street that TUnited Corporation, formed by the Morgan- Donbright-Drexel interests which are behind Commonwealth & South- ern, was to buy a block of Com- monwealth & Southern stock. One of the largest stockholders in both of these holding companies, sold off. lectric Bond & Share fluc- tuated over a two point price range. Electric Investors was practically neglected after several days of sharp advances. Italian’ Superpower, which is controlled by the Bonbright inter- «sts with an Jtalian group, was ac- tive and strong. This company was formed last year to acquire a sub- stantlal minority interest in practi- cally all of the principal Ttalian pow- er companies. Formation of a several hundred million dollar tobacco combine and improved chain stores earnings fail- ed to stimulate buying in those two groups. McClellan stores, which re- ported a 44 per cent increase In sales for the first five months of the year, sagged to a new low. Union To- bacco, which is one of the companies being taken in the tobacco merger along with unlimited cigar stores, moved up a fraction on a small turn- over.

BONDS DULL WHEN MONEY RATE RISES Trading Far Below Average— Few Issues Show Activity New York, June 10 (A—The bond market idled today as the bearish news of the high intereat rate forc- | ed on the government for the cur- rent financing, taken as a reflection of uncertainty over credit, made it- self felt in the already depressed list. So quiet was the early trading that volume of sales fell below the snail's pace of Saturday. Price changes were unconsequen- tial throughout the list. United States government securities found an exceptionally narrow market, Here and there a high grade rail and utility met enough demand to raise the quotation fractionally, no- tably Norfolk & Western Consolidat- ed 48 and North American kdison 8.

STOCKS ERRATIC AS TRADING S LIGHT Rallies Short Lived—Spotty Market This Afternoon New York, June 10 (®—Highly |erratic price movements again char- acterized the stock market today. Prices opened irregularly higher, turned heavy before mid-day, rallied briskly in the early afternoon and then became spotty again as fresn selling developed in some of the public utilities. Trading continued relatively light in volume, indicating an absence of any extensive pubiic participation. Call Money Unchanged Call money renewed unchanged at 7 per cent but the supply was only nominal. Wall street expects stif- fer money with the approach of heavy mid-month payments. And this is having a deterrent effect on speculative operations for the ad- vance. Short selling is also restrict- ed by the fact that a large short in- terest already has been built up in scveral of the speculative issucs, making further “bear” commit- ments rather hazardous in the event of any organized buying support suddenly making its appearance. The drop of 123.596 tons in the May unfilled orders of the United | States Steel Corporation, made pub- lic at noon today, was somewhat less than generally expected in view of the high rate of operations last month. Steel shares failed to make any appreciable response to the announcement one way or the other, U. 8. Steel common sagging a point to 167 on light trading after the news became public. Olls Advance Slightly Oils showed a tendency to advance on the first report of proceedings from the Colorado Springs conserva- tion conference, but the organized buying was limited to the relatively unimportant issues. Houseon and Indian Refining each ran up abbut 4 points and American Republics 3, but the Standard Oil issues, Sinclair, Skelly, Pan American and other leading producers failed to exhibit any great amount of enthusiasm.
