STOCK SHARES DISPLAY FIRM TRADING RANGE Profit-Taking Offerings Are Easily Absorbed by Leaders. Average Stock Prices Average of thirty Industrials for Monday 80.75, up .08. Average of twenty rails ■1872. up .81 Average of twenty utilities 32.71, nft 08. Average of forty bonds 78.88. Up 1.17, BY ELMER C, WALZER United P’. ess Financial Editor NEW YORK, Dec. 21.—Although heavy profit-taking came Into the stock market during the morning trading today, attracted by the sharp uprush last week, stocks dis"played a steady tone. Offerings of the leaders were readily absorbed and prices around noon showed little change from previous closing levels. A slight dip occurred after the opening, but this ground wa soon regained when impressive support came into leaders like New York Central, Du Pont, General Electric and American Can. Toward noon, trading volume slackened somewhat, a development that was considered favorable, inasmuch as it indicated most of the immediate selling overhanging the market had been cleaned up. Corresponding improvement also was apparent or. tne bond market, where most leaders retained the greater part of last week s advances. Rails Encouraged Sieel common was a weak spot in the stock market, but had little Influence on other sections of the list. Selling of Steel, which carried it down nearly 1!4 points at one time was inspired by predictions in t/he steel industry that, ingot, output this week would fall close to the 20 per cent level as mills curtail for the holiday period. At the same time, impressive sup- j port came into the leading railroad shares as traders discussed increased possibilities of the railroads obtaining their 10 per cent wage redlction. Advices from Chicago said the Atchison would serve notice today bn some classes of contract employes that it desires to revise exist|hg contracts so as to bring about & 15 per cent wage reduction. Copper Shares Firm The roads are asking a 15 per scent cut, but probably W'ould be satisfied with 10 per cent, the extra per cent apparently being requested for “bargaining purposes.” New York Central, leader of the (exchange’s non-dividend paying rails, recovered the greater part of Bn early 2-point decline, and special buying appeared in Pennsylvania, Northern Pacific, Atchison and Jjnion Pacific. Coppers were relatively quiet, notwithstanding indications of further progress in plans for a world-wide production curtailment accord and possibilities of an advance in copper prices to around 9 cents in the first quarter of next year, against current levels of 7Li cents a pound.

FRESH DEMAND SENDS PORKER PRICESHIGHER Not Enough Cattle on Hand to Make Market; Sheep Unchanged. Renewed demand and ordinary receipts served to force prices up this morning on hogs at the city yards. The market mostly was up to 10 to 25 cents on all classes. The bulk, 100 to 350 pounds, sold for $4.10 to $4.45; early top holding at the $4.45 figure. Receipts were estimated at 6,000; holdovers were 58. Nothing was done in the cattle market. Not enough fresh stock oil hand to stimulate trade and stale kinds neglected. Receipts were 200. Vealers were unchanged at $6.50 down. Calf receipts numbered 200. Little change was noted in sheep, the bulk selling at $5.50 down. Receipts were 300. Early sales and bids on hogs at Chicago were strong to 10 cents higher than Saturday’s average or 10 to 25 cents higher than Friday; i 190 to 220 pounds $4.35 to $4.40; 130 |to 160 pounds $4.00 to $4.25.

WHEAT MOVES UP ON STRONG FOREPNEWS Bullish World Statistics Add Firm Tone to All Options. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Dec. 21.—Comparative strength at Liverpool gave wheat an unevenly steady to firm opening on the Board of Trade today with the weakness in stocks acting as a brake upon a sharp upward movement. Liverpool was relatively strong on bullish world statistics, failing to follow the decline here Saturday. July wheat was easy but other deliveries were firm. Liverpool Market Strong Corn was very slow at the opening and about steady. Oats was steady to easy with corn. At the opening wheat was cent lower to % cent higher, corn was unchanged to % cent lower and oats unchanged to T 4 cent lower. Provisions were steady. Although Liverpool was 3 i pence down at midafternoon, it was equal to an unchanged market and much stronger than due. Cash Demand Slow A slow cash corn demand, especially from industries, is - expected until after the holidays. The country is not likely to sell unless futures advance sharply and this is not probable unless wheat should make a good r: The weather is unsettled but there has been no important change. Some oats have been worked for export from time to time but the amounts have not been large. However, this serves as a supporting influence against the trend in other grains which operates against oats at intervals. Chicago Grain Range —Dec. 21wheat— , „ Prev. High. Lootv. 11:00 close.
