LEADING INDUSTRIAL STOCKS STRONG

No Apparent Reason for Marked Buoyancy at Start, • Average Stock Prices Average price of twenty industrial stocks Tuesday was 121.74. off .61. Average price of twenty rails was 98.43, off .59. By Unitrd Press NEW YORK, Jan. 21.—After displaying stubborn resistance to selling Tuesday, the stock market created apprehension in bearish circles by developing pronounced strength in the early dealings today without special news to account for the improved tone. American Can was the outstanding feature, running up to 164% against the previous session low of 158%. Renewed irregularity which cropped out in the late morning only served to demonstrate that the market was in an inherently strong position. Wall Street has never known a break in the general list to be advertised when stocks are going to drop. They go about it without much ado. Commission houses have been preaching caution and bear operators have been putting out short lines. The, stage has been set for a sweeping downward move which would give traders who firmly believe prices will ultimately reach much higher levels a chance to retheir sold out holdings. circumstances point strongly to the conclusion that no substantial Recessions are in sight. While the trading fraternity awaited heavy selling, the market has gone quietly about the task of correcting its inside position, laying groundwork for vigorous resumption of the main advance. Local Bank Clearings Bank clearings Wednesday were $3,270,000. Bank debits amounted to $6,485,000. WHEAT FUTURES SLIGHTLY HIGHER

Foreign Developments Influences Grain Trade, BULLETIN Bu United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 21.—Grain futures closed sharply below Tuesday's final lveel on the Board of Trade today. A late buying rally failed to overcome losses through selling. Bu United Press ■CHICAGO, Jan. 21.—Grains biped fractionally at opening of Mness on the Board of Trade today. Coarse grains had an easier undertone. Wheat was Influenced by foreign developments. Broomhall’s resume of the world situation brought a short wave of buying. Liquidation pressed corn down a fraction. There was plenty of long corn to be had with houses against the recent advances leading sellers. Oats followed corn on a featureless market. Provisions strength reflected higher hogs and cables and increased shipments. Chicago Grain Table —Jan. 21— WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close, dose.

Sr— tHEEP were prime favorites in the fiivorltes in the livestock market at the close of 1924. The year was a prosperous one for lamb producers, sheep selling higher and at a wider margin of profit than other classes of live stock. In 1924 the price for lamb, averaged around $14.30 and advance of 80 cents over 1923 and 1922, and an increase of $4.45 over the low market year of 1921, when a shipment of western ewes on one of the central markets realized only 85 cents a head after paying marketing costs. One reason for this advancing prosperity lies in the present high prices of wool, which have come back to a heavy figure over the pre-war average. Another strong contributing factor lies in the comparatively low production of the past few years. During 1924 the

decreased population (which was lower in Janu iry, 1922, than at any time since 1878) had been Increased to some extent, but had barely begun to retrace its path to the production of level to pre-war years. During the summer the movement of feeder lambs to the country was far ahead of last year. The movement diminished later and the number of lambs on feed througnout the entire country shows a decrease of lees than 1 per cent on a tally around the last few weeks of the year, while Colorado, a strong supply State for the lamb market after the first of February, shows an ingrease of 205,000 head over the 1923 figures. This increase, however, will not indent the market receipts for some iim®, and relatively high prioes are expected to continue through 1925 and probably for the next few years.
