By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, March 22.—United States Government bonds rallied mildly today, but later support was lacking, and they drifted lower in a Quiet market. A few issues managed to withstand the trend, but in others losses were as much as 38 of a point. Dealers said investors again appeared to have joined the sideline group to await something more concrete in the way of money market prospects. Corresponding quietude settled over other divisions of the market, but with somewhat different results. High grade corporate^ declined as a group, while the more speculatively-tinged issues followed mixed courses. Rails recoiled a bit, with Rock Island general 4s, “Katy” 5s, Pennsylvania general 41 _.s and Alleghany stamped 5s declining to more than a point. Lehigh Valley Coal Co. 5s of 1964 broke more than 5 points and the 5s of 1974 nearly 5 to provide two of the outstanding swings in the corporate ^section. Hiram Walker 4t,s declined a point of so and International Paper 6s lost nearly that much. Washington Exchange SALES—AFTER CALL.

Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, March 22.—The up ward trend of costs is being overrated as a utility company bugaboo, accord ing to figures compiled by the Finan cial World and published in its cur rent issue. Investors who look with disfavor upon public utility issues have recently been pointing to the effect upon utility earnings of rising costs of operation, the publication points out. Those figures, taken from a utility company that may be regarded as typical, show a breakdown of costs on the basis of $1 of revenue and then on the basis of an assumed 10 per cent Increase in revenues accompanied by a 25 per cent increases in costs, as follows: Revenue _ $1.00 $1.10 Labor _ .If, .1725 fa) Fuel .on .0825 <b) Pineht for fuel_ . .of. .0550 it) Other supplies _ .10 .1250 Operatine reserves .. _ .04 .0440 Taxes - ... _ .12 .1200(d) Total costs. .$0.52 $0.0050 Available for Interest. etc. 0 48 0.4050 'a) A 15 per cent rise is assumed be cause increased Volume does not require a corresponding increase in working force. (bi Reltects 10 per cent increase in quan tity. as well as a 25 per cent, rise In cost, ic» Reflects increased amount of fuel 'di Assuming a 25 per cent increase in income taxes, which represent 20 per cent of all taxes. Thus it is seen that, even looking on the gloomy side of things, an increase in operating costs of as much as 25 per cent would fall far short of spelling disaster for the utility industry, despite rigidity of rates charged for a great part of tiieir business.
