Aug. 13 Resistance to selling pressure made an appearance on the stock market before noon today after the list had been depressed fractions to more than 3 pcints. Trading was dull. Radio Corporation led the decline, 'ouching 36%. off 2 3 i. The corporation's report for the first six months showed earnings inadequate for preferred dividends and was generally an unsettling factor. Youngstown Steel operations were unchanged at 56' 3 per cent and General Motors reported a sharp drop in sales in July. Brokerage opinion was not bearish, but it tended toward caution. Steel Dips United States Steel dipped to 1 62 T =. but around noon it was back to 163%. off I s * from the previous close. Other steels were lower, with A. M Byers off 3% at 65, Bethlehem off r . at 78', and Vanadium off 1 at 86%. The General Motors sales report had no effect on the stock, which ruled fairly steady.

Fear Dividends The market still was under the influence of fear of unfavorable dividend action on many stocks. Yields on present cash payments range up to more than 25 per cent, and in case of the higher returns it is believed adjustments will be made at dividend meetings in the near future. Call money renewed at 2% per cent and held firm. Cotton futures reacted to newseasonal lows, all positions dropping below- the 12-cent level. Chicago wheat dipped to within I’* to 2% cents of the season's lows.

In the Stock Market

■ By Thomson & McKinnon 1 NEW YORK, Aug! 18.—The first step in the business cycle is advance orders. From many directions are signs vis. that orders are beginning to 1. .. Buying at wholesale, according to the Credit Clearing House in the merchandise markets last week, exceeded considerably that of prewtous weeks. It was only a shade under the corresponding week of last year. Another encouraging development is the flattening out of the commodity ; rice trend. For the first time since May the commodity index shows an advance for 1-wo consecutive weeks. In this connection, it is interesting to note that Babson in an interview predicts a general business recovery for the midwest region based on expectations of improved agricultural conditions. Whatever influence the extended short interest may have had in the market action the last few days, one fact clearly brought out is that stocks are far more strongly held than they have been for several years. With the gain in confidence that business is going forward and with no change indicated in money rates, the demand for good securities should grow stronger.

HEAVY SELLING SENDS FUTURE OPTIONS DOWN Corn Weak on Rain Reports; Close Is Lower on All Grains. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Aug. 18—Short covering and commission house buying checked the decline in wheat on the Board of Trade today, but the market closed sharply lower. A slowexport demand, better weather in Europe, increasing pressure from Canada and Russian wheats and weakness in Winnipeg tumbled prices early and kept the undertone heavy throughout the session. Com broke sharply on the reports of heavy rains, but staged a good rally on buying by commission houses and bulls, though the market failed to fully recover. Oats were influenced by the action in the major pits. At the close wheat was 2% to 2 3 i cents lower. Corn was 2%>* to 3% cents lower and oats were 1% to TT4 cents lower. Provisions were steady on bellies, but 15 to 30 points lower on lards. Weakening further after the lower opening here, Liverpool closed Us cents to 2% cents down. There were no indications of a export demand over the week-end. Winnipeg was also rather weak early, partly due to the export dullness. Cash prices were 2 cents to 3 cents lower. Receipts were 125 cars. Highly beneficial rains over a major portion of the belt was reflected in heavy selling orders at the start and corn fell nearly 3 cents, with December leading the way. There was a rally of around 1 cent from the bottom, but further gains were hard to maintain during the morning. Commission houses were the chief buyers. Cash prices were 2 cents to 3 cents lbwer. Receipts were 358 cars. Oats declined with the other grains early, but losses were not as excessive as in the major pits. The market was comparatively quiet, due to the absence of any special news. Cash prices were 1 cent to 1% cents lower. Receipts were 183 cars. Chicago Grain Table —Aug. 18— WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close close.
