MALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Nov. 13.—Tickers were again deluged with quotations in early trading today on the stock exchange. Like Monday, many of the orders executed were to sell and this unloading for profit caused irregularity. While some stocks were depressed, a few leaders continued to advance. Montgomery Ward rallied from its 14-point loss of yesterday, while Radio opened unchanged at 288 and held around that figure. U. S. Steel moved forward, contrasted with its steady tone Monday. Rails met selling. Mail order shares, as a group, moved into higher ground. Montgomery Ward gained 5% points to 398%, Sears-Roebuck 3% to anew high at 175 and National Bellas Hess 5% to 160, also anew high record. Before the session had advanced far real selling set in. The attack of bears centered on the speculative issues which had been carried highest. in the recent Hoover market. Radio Corporation, after opening unchanged, dropped to 281%, off 6%. Selling continued in General Motors old and new stocks, the old dropping 1% to 218% while the new lost nearly a point to 87%. Chicago Northwestern dropped 3 points to 88; Vanadium, 6 points to 101; Packard, 2 points to 106; Texas Gulf Sulphur, 1% to 74%; Chrysler, 1% to 133%; International Nickel, 4% points to 194; Canadian Pacific, 4% to 231%, and Union Pacific. 3% to 218'i. The selling was absorbed so well that buyers took heart again in the first half hour and most of the stocks which had been depressed in earlier dealings on profit-taking were regaining their losses, while higher prices were noted in special issues in varous sections of the list. Sale n the first half hour amounted to 620,500 shares, or at the rate of 6,205,000 shares for a full five-hour day. Tickers fell behind 12 minutes by 10:30 and were steadily losing ground.
