Trading Was Light, But Investment Shares Held Their Ground. New York, April 1—The quiet strength of today’s stock market be- spoke further confidence in a success- ful outcome of the titanic struggle still waging in France. Trading was in very emall volume, but investment shares held their ground in the main. Announcement of the expected entry of American troops into the battle was hailed with deep satisfaction, as aiso was the decision of the allies to desig- nate a supreme command on the western front. Home advices received favorable interpretation, tonnage in the middle west, for example, showing a gain over the corresponding period last yean This was nullified" to 2 desree by prospects of a shortage of shipping facilities, labor problems adding a dis- turbing element. The government's recent ruling on stock loans probably accounted for sporadic short covering among certain leaders, especially United States Steel, Which failed, however, to hold more | i than half its one point gain. A Coppers were relatively more active than- at any time in the past month, gains of from one to one and one-half points, resulting from the small avail- able supply of the metal and a well- defined belief that new price schedules are likely to’favor that commodity. Tobaccos, oils (Sinclair excepted), utilities and some minor specialties scored gross gains of one to four points, but the motor group, especially tudebaker, was at all times under pressure. Inquiry for rails was ex- ceedingly limited, but firmness pre- vailed in that division. Total sales| amounted to 188,000 shares. Bonds, including the Liberty issues, were irregular on light offerings. Sales (par vaiue) were $4.625.000. United States bonds (old issues) were unchangéd on call South Ry : $TOCKS.
