NEW YORK. March 31—Sharp re
actions in the United States Govern
ment list had little influence on cor
porate and foreign bonds in the market
today.
Federal issues fell back on moderate
volume and, late in the morning, stood
1 32 to 22 32 of a point lower with,
the majority off more than 10 32.
More than a third of the group fell
to new low prices for 1937. with some
below par. Despite this general move
ment about a half dozen issues failed
to open.
Elsewhere m the market prices fol
lowed slightly mixed trends. Light
dealing sent Baltimore & Ohio 4!-s,
6t. Paul 5s of 1975, Illinois Central
4\s and Southern Railways 4s to
modestly higher levels. North Western
434s, Erie 5s Missouri Pacific 5s "F”
and Pennsylvania General 4’^s all
declined a little.
Small gains in the utility and in
dustrial sections were recorded by
American Water Works 6c. Goodyear
,5s. Hiram Walker 414s and Columbia
Gas & Electric 5s. Issues moving the
other direction including American
Telephone 3'4s, Bethlehem Steel 334s
" and Pennsylvania Dixie Cement 6s.
Abitibi Power 5s made a spectacular
Upswing of nearly 2 points.

Rise Follows New Boost in
Spot Quotations to 17
Cent Level.
Br the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 31.—Copper
future* opened in the New York Com
modity Exchange higher by from 0.31 of
a cent to 0.34 of a cent today following
the advance of % of a cent in the price
of the metal for immediate delivery an
nounced by leading producers late
yesterday and today.
The new spot price of 17 cent* a
pound 1* the highest since March, 1930.
Lack of domestic supplies for quick
delivery was the reason most generally
given for the rise.
Other commodities continued to ad
vance in early dealings today. Cotton
futures, which rose sensationally yes
terday, opened from 15 cents a bale
lower to 55 cents higher for the more
distant options. Rubber futures were
0.7 of a cent to 0.14 of a cent a pound
higher.
In both cases foreign, trade and Wall
Street buying was in widence. Rub
ber, cotton, w'heat and non-ferrous
metal futures were up in the English
markets today.
The rise in domestic spot copper
yesterday, announced after the close of
the commodity exchange by one pro
ducer, came as a surprise to the trade,
where lower prices were thought likely
in the face of sharply increasing out
put and a recent lag in foreign buying.
The advance was followed later in
the day by two other producers and
by this morning all had raised their
quotations. Copper fabricators also
repriced to meet the higher new mate
rial cost.
