BY F. H. RICHARDSON. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, June 11—So far as the effect on bond trading today was con cerned, first impressions of the an nouncement from Paris that the $300.- 000.000 German reparations loan would be priced at 90 for per cent were depressing and during the first hour the list sagged in most departments. Later, however, as volume fell off, prices recovered and by noon were showing a net advance. While the price of the German loan at 90 was considered low, in view of the fact that tentative subscriptions have been taken here at 91 and 92. the realization that the low price will clear the loan out of the wßy in short order proved reassuring. Another factor aiding the advance was the small total of other new cap ital offerings, at around $10,000,000. Money rates were unchanged, with funds in plentiful supply in both the call and time markets. * Once again, the feature of the high grade group was the activity in Liberty fourth which were 2/32 higher. Other points of strength in this group were Atchison general 4s, Southern Pacific 4'is, Union Pacific first 4s, Philadelphia Co. ss, Columbia Gas 5s and New York Telephone 4'is. There were fractional declines in New York Central 4s. Pennsylvania 4* 2 s and Great Northern 7s. International Telephone & Telegraph 4' 2 s led the stock privilege group down ward again as stocks declined. Texas Corporation ss, American Telephone 4’is (1939) and Baltimore & Ohio con vertible 4’ 2 s were other active issues. Pathe Exchange 7s ran up over 4 points on heavy buying, presumably oh retention of the old management at the stockholders’ meeting. The issue is now selling about 40 points above its low of the year and only a few points below its peak price. National Dairy Products s*4s w'ere again active and a shade higher. Other gainers in the industrials were Armour of Delaware 5»/2S and Phillips Petroleum s*is. Junior bonds of the carriers fluctuat ed erratically. St. Paul adjustments, Denver & Rio Grande Western ss, Frisco 4 1 / 2 s, Southern Railway 4s and Boston & Maine 5s all gained. The election of O. P. Van Sweringen to the board of the Denver & Rio Grande Western brought buying into that road's securities. Foreign dollar credits were quiet for the most part, though German bonds acted well in the light of reparations issue announcement. French and Bel gium descriptions were off.
