STOCKS REACH NEW HIGHS ON QUIEniARKET Speculative Leaders Continue to Climb; Trading v on Small Scale,
Average Stock Prices
Average of twenty industrials Tuesday was 206.42, up 1.32. Average of twenty rails was 135.39, up .08. Average of forty bonds was $6.22, off .13. Bu United Press NEW YORK, July 18.—Moderate rallying tendencies that developed in Tuesday’s trading were carried over in early dealings today and further new highs on the movement were scored by speculative leaders. Trading, however, continued on the same small scale witnessed for the greater part of the week and efforts to push leaders ahead rapidly met with failure. Shorts continued to cover in a small way and aided in the upturn. Some important buying was noted in several issues, notably General Motors and the mail order shares, while traders were buying in a small way on the expectations of a sharp decrease in brokerage loans to be reported after the close of the market tonight. Small initial advances were scored by General Motors, Radio, Montgomery Ward, but Steel held steady around its previous closing level. Macy and Schulte were in special demand, the former rising to a further record high. Atlantic Refining continued to feature the oil shares, running up nearly 2 points to anew high for the year. Further new highs on the recovery were scored in the early afternoon dealings following a drop in call money to 5M per cent from a renewal rate of 6 per cent. Heavy buying continued in the mail order shares and General Motors and extensive gains were made by these issues. Trading in other sections of the list, however, were generally light and changes were without significance.

"The people of this country possess and enjoy more comfortable homes, more automobiles and other conveniences than the people of any other country,” he said.

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. July 18.—We will undoubtedly have a rest for a week or two from the discussion of changes in rediscount rates, but brokers’ loans will be. as usual, the topic today and Thursday, from what we can see this morning. Thursday's report should show some reduction, but we don’t think it will be an important one. Possibly the anticipation of this and the dullness and the natural disinclination of the public to liquidate their stocks, made it possible for the professionals to bring about a fair rally In Tuesday’s market. In these days any sort of rally is very welcome, but it is very evident that the public does not follow these moves as heretofore. This, of course, is perfectly natural in view of the widely advertised policy of the banking authorities to contract credit. We continue of opinion that until there Is a change in this policy it will be profitable to sell stocks on the bulges. celpts. 100: market steady: prime heavy steers. $13014; heavy shipping steers. 312 (q 13. medium and plain steers. slo®l2 fat heifers. $10013.50; choice cows. $8 53 ®10; medium to good cows.
