Average Stock Prices

A vwaire of twenty Industrial stocks for Friday' wae 145.03. up 1.48. Average of twenty rails 109.74. up. ~6. Average of forty bonds 90.20, unchanged. Rv United Press . NEW YORK, June 4.—Thursday’s advance in the general stock mar-/ ket list carried Dow-Jones industrial average to 145.03, thereby surpassing the point of the previous recovery, 144.53, reached on April 24. This evidence of greater rallying over included further short covering by professionals in early trading resulting in further gains among speculative leaders. Steel common moved up fractionally to new high ground on the movement at 125%, while Pere Marquette pushed into record territory at 91%, up %. Mack Truck gained % to 115%, and Baldwin, selling exdividend, was up % at 103%. Indications , were observable around noon that the rally was slowing down in issues where the recovery had depended primarily upon the buying of -shorts. Further gains were scored in issues which had fa? vorable earnings or promising trade “bonditions. United States Cast Iron Pipe spurted more than 3 points to 171 against ns low of around 150 a few weeks ago when it was pointed out that earnings this year probably would exceed a balance of $38.84 shown for the common last year.

By United Press CHICAGO, June 4. —Grains closed uneven on the Chicago Board of Trade today as the result of an elev-enth-hour'dip in price levels. Wheat closed fictionally higher in all positions, save December, which was % off. Prices were unsettled throughout a day of erratic trading and took a sudden dip just before the close, losing practically all of the day’s gains. Cash graifi was firm. Crop news was generally favorable and European dispatches about poor crop .conditions, coupled with a belter export business, introduced a bullish feature into the pit. Corn closed fractionally lower in all positions. It was firm until the late wheat dip. The fact that the large number of 401 cars of this grain were received today had little effect on the pit. Cash prices were slightly -lower. Oats closed practically unchanged after another dull day. Provisions closed higher.
