NEW YORK, March 6 — (£") —
Stocks slipped in Wednesday’s
market although the movement
was narrow and some leaders,
notably steels, managed to erase
losses or convert them into slight
gains in late dealings.
Early declines ranged to two
points as continued strike dead
locks and threat* of new walkouts
tended to chill enthusiasm of in
vestors. Buying also was retarded
by pessimism over 1946 earnings
prospects.
Light Day
Offerings, moderately active at
the opening, dried up on the down
turn and subsequent moves, while
generally aimed at resuming yes
terday’s recovery trend, failed to
disclose any sustained demand.
Transfers of 890,000 shares, one of
the lightest totals in the past six
months, compared with 1,040,000
on Tuesday.
Decline in the Associated Press
80-stock average was held to .1
of a point at 73.9. Dealings involv
ed only 913 issues of which 446
dropped, 301 rose and 166 closed
unchanger.
Some Gains
Sharing in the late comeback
were U. S. Steel, Westinghouse,
Douglas Aircraft and Southern
Pacific, which closed unchangei
and International Telephone, Beth
lehem, and American Can whiicl
achieved fractional gains.
Suffering losses of fractions t(
more than a point were Genera
Motors, Republic Steel, Chrysler
Woolworth, American Telephone.
Santa Fe, Southern Railway, Al
lied Chemical, General Electriic,
Air Reduction, Anaconda, Kenne
cott, Public Service of N. J., Texas
Co., and Owens - Illionis.
Eastern Air Up
Eastern Air Lines jumped 6
points for the day after disclosure
of a proposed 4-for-l stocksplit.
National Enameling and Stamp
ing uost S 34 on a dividend re
duction.
Down 1 1-4 was common stock
of Graham-Paige, whose difficul
ties of steel procurement figured
in an appeal for government allo
cation of material for automobile
production. The company’s prefer
red shares declined 8 1-8 on the
curb.
On Offside
Other curb stocks on the offside
included Barium Steel, Niagara
Hudson Power, Raytheon. Cities
Service and Mesabi Iron. Creole
Petroleum and Electric Bond and
Share finished higher. Volume here
was 410,000 shares against 380,000
Tuesday.
Bonds were irregularly lower.
Cotton closed $1.25 to $2.15 a bale
lower, and at Chicago, oats and
rye were unchanged to down 1 1-2
to 5 cents a bushel, respectively.

Cotton
NEW YORK COTTON
NEW YORK, March 6- Ufi -
Cotton futures slumped as much
■as $3.25 a bale Wednesday under
heavy liquidating pressure touched
off by confusing reports on the
price control program.
When the selling abated, the mar
ket recovered somewhat on mill
buying and short covering t0 close
$1.25 to $2.15 down.
Unsettling developments, includ
ing reports that a raw cotton ceil,
ing of about 27 to 27.5 cents a
pound is contemplated, and con
templated change in margins.
Also disturbing to traders was
expectation that the plea of textile
mills that ceilings on goods be
based on market prices for raw
cotton rather than the somewhat
lower cotton parity level will be
rejected. Traders awaited with in
terest a scheduled meeting of of
ficials tomorrow in Washington
to discuss the question of uniform
margins, requested by the Com
modity Exchange administration.

Grain
CHICAGO GRAIN
CHICAGO, March 6—(JP)—Grain
futures prices, which were under
more than usual pressure all day,
finally buckled near the close of
Wednesday’s trading. May rye
skidded the full 5-cent limit per
mitted in one day( and oats aa
much as 1 1-2 cents a bushel, pul
ling the July delivery off the ceil
ing for the first time in several
weeks.
The slump in cotton and a 5
cent limit break in May rye at Win
nipeg were the influences, traders
said, which knocked the props from
beneath that grain. Oats eased off
with a fading demand which was
followed by somewhat heavy sel
ling. Buying orders for all deliver
ies of oats which had accumulated
recently were relieved to have been
fairly weU met in the sell-off,
which included a moderate volume
of hedge sales and spreads.
Grading Slow
Trading in other grains continued
at a slow pace because of the ab
sence of sufficient offerings, but
there was some further liquidation
of May wheat on which trading has
been suspended except for evening
up presently outstanding commit
ments. The open interest in this de
livery has been reduced only about
4,000,000 bushels from the approxi
mately 15,000,000 bushels under
commitment when the suspension
order was issued two weeks ago.
Wheat, corn and barley closed
again at ceiling prices of $1.83 1-2,
$1.21 1-2 and $1.26 1-2; oats un
changed to 1 1-2 cents lower than
yesterday’s finish, May 83-cent
| ceiling; rye unchanged to 5 cents
off. May $2.16 1-2.
scarcity Continues
Trade analysts said there appear
ed to be no loosening of the grain
scarcity in commercial channels
since the ceiling prices were raised
last Monday. Farmers were under
stood to be still holding their sur
plus stocks, hopeful of further ceil
ing advances, while elevator in
terests are reluctant to make ship
ments because of a probability that
replacements would not be forth
coming.
At the same time, one observer
said there seemed some indication
that holders of whect futures were
inclined now to sell on the belief
that if ceilings are not to be rais
ed again in this crop year, they
are not likely to be raised later
; when demand might be less ur
gent.
