OILS ATTACKED LATER Substantial Recessions Are Yielded by Maryland and Phillips Petroleum. The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK. April 16—Saturday’s clearing house statement showed a loan shrinkage of $26,384,000, demonstrating that no excessive use of funds was taking place in the speculative community and indicated no higher bank rates were to be expected.

First Hour Rails continued especially active in the first hour and special strength was in evidence in several industrial specialties like Crucible and Sloss-Shef-field. But selling broke out again among the oils when Marland declined to anew low while Phillips Pete yielded most of the recovery scored toward the end of last week. Pacific Oil. however. held well above last week’s low Second Hour Continuation of the strength shown by rails in Saturday’s session was the most satisfactory feature of the forenoon. Despite the heaviness of the general market last week the average of twenty rails scored a half point gain and at Saturday's close stood at the highest since March 26. Canadian Pacific reached a further record 1923 high before noon while standard divi-dend-payers like Reading, Southern Pacific and Atchison were active at the best levels on the current move. Noon Hour Trading proceeded slowly in the early afternoon, but the market displayed a confident tone and the general list was free from selling pressure. Exceptional strength was shown by General Motors, which moved into new high ground for the year, and Dupont advanced in the wake of the General Motors spurt, while Steel common fluctuated in an extremely narrow range.
