Seiling of motors apparently was im- pelled by announcements of further cuts in the prices of several popular makes of cars. The reaction In rubbers was attributed to similar conditions in the tire trade. Reactions among steels and equip- ments from their firmness of the fore- noon were ascribed to . delay In the awarding of contracts by some of 'the larger rallway systems.
