OIL STOCKS TAKE LEAD IN MARKET’S EARLY RECOVERY Reduction in Penna Crude Passes by Wall Street Practically Unnoticed, NEW YORK, May 3.—lnstead of a flood of selling which greeted the opening of the last two days, the market today was characterzied bv a quiet tone in the early trading. Price movements throughout the list gave evidence of greatly improved technical positions. Steel, Studebaker and other industrial leaders continued the rally which proceeded throughout the greater part of the previous session. Rails were also in better demand, under the leadership of Canadian Pa ciflc. First Hour Stocks maintained an upward trend throughout the list in the first hour*. Reduction of 25c a barrel in Penna crude oil went unnoticed by the oil stocks, demonstrating that Wall Street was beginning to take a saner view of the situation arising from California’s huge production. Asa matter of fact, California Pete and Sandard of California were leaders in the recovery. Second Hour Greater confidence was gained by traders favoring the side of rising prices as stocks developed some aggressiveness on the recovery in tho late morning. Pronounced strength in General Motors and a five-point, advar 'e. by Dupont, linked with Studebater's advance and some progress by Maxwell shares, imparted buoyancy to the list that amount to a general rally before noon. Noon Hour Prices again were unsettled when heavy selling broke out in the equipment group in noon dealings: American Locomotive, one of the few stocks that had not established a new low on recent clrivee, was depressed below Its point of support at 130. Baldwin and Lima also were subjected to concentrated pressure, with the result that the rally in tho general list was halted. Fourth Hour Prices had another severe sinking spell in the early afternoon, precipitated by a reduction in the price of fined sugar, which was followed by a wide-open break in Cuban Cane preferred, Punta Alegre and other representative sugar stocks. Professional operators were encouraged by this success and fresh selling of equipments was in procress at the close of the hour. , Closing Hour The attack launched against the equipment group at the close of the fourth hour was continued vigorously in the closing hour with the result that Baldwin and American Locomotive were forced to new lows, while Republic and Gulf States were depressed below their previous points of support. Steel common, however, displayed resistance at 102%, which was Wednesday's low. Twenty active industrial stocks Wednesday, 08.05, up .85 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 85.29, up .38 per cent. Local Bank Clearings Indianapolis bank o'earings Thursday were $3,855,000; bank debits were $6,224,000.

For Real Service Buy RED CROWN % The High-Grade Gasoline Gasoline Service is expressed in terms of mileage. When you buy 10 gallons of gasoline, in reality you are buying 150 miles of service, if you get 15 miles to the gallon. Gasoline becomes a propelling force only when you cause it to vaporize and mix it with air. The service which you receive is in exact ratio to the manner in which the gasoline vaporizes. Red Grown Vaporizes TT'T saga to the Last Drop that’s why there is no waste. Red Crown has a Perfect Chain of Boiling Point Fractions, adjusted so as to vaporize at just the correct temperature to produce instant starting Winter or Summer —a quick pickup—smooth acceleration—tremendous sustained pulling power—racing speed if 7 you want it and a maximum of mileage. All of which is summed up in two words “Real Service.”
