The better known transportation _shares were barely steady, and trading in these shares was on a very reduced scale. London, acting for its own account and presumably continental inferests, was again a seller here, but in lesser volume than yesterday. The Pacifics and United States Steel figured main- Iy in these offerings, with an admix- ture of Eries and some of the metal shares. War specialties resumed their lead- ership, more than 60 per cent. of the day's extensive operations centering about half a dozen of these issues. Stocks long dormant, like Allis-Chal- mers common and fireferred, National Enameling and the Rumelys occupied places of prominence. Allis-Chalmers common made a new high price at 46- 1-2 with a like distinction for the pre- ferred at 75 5-8. The rise in these shares was accompanied by reports that Bethlehem Steel interests had gained control of the company. Other new high records included Bethlehem Steel preferred at 180, General Motors at 224, Willys-Overland at 179 and Studebaker at 88 7-8. Bethlehem pre- ferred made a maximum gain of 29 and Willys-Overland gained 15 1-4. Other industrials and equipments emerged from months or years of ob- scurity with gains of three to seven points.

Given the boost of these grounds and plants, however, the league has dwindled to a merely nominal daily attendance. The owners of these three baseball properties are ready to away from the Colonial another sea- son, and if the Colonial decides to start again with teams in these three leading Connecticut citles, it will be compeiled to locate in new grounds.
