By th* Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 15.—The bond
market finished the week w'ith a mod
erate upturn today.
Despite continued low volume of
trading various corporate liens reached
ahead for fractional gains.
U. 8. Governments paced the move
ment wdth a number of advances
which averaged about ’B of a point.
These were evenly distributed through
the Treasury' and guaranteed lists.
The rail division claimed a fair
number of the gains. Leaders were
Baltimore & Ohio 4<-s, Chicago &
Northwestern 3 Vs. Pennsylvania gen
eral 4tis, Southern Pacific 4’2S and
Southern Railway 4s.
Also a little improved were Ana
conda Copper 412 s, Bethlehem Steel
4tis, Goodyear 5s and International
Paper 5s.
German obligations received some |
attention at rising prices. Both the j
Young and Dawes plan issues have j
ehown life recently, apparently in
response to favorable appraisals of
Germany’s foreign trade outlook for
the current year, as outlined by some
economists.

Prices Are About Steady,
but Tend to Lose Part
of Recent Gains.
Trading was fairly active in the
large markets the first half of May,
reports the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics. Oarlot supplies were
rather heavy, and prioes, while com
paratively steady, tended to lose some
of the gains made early In the month.
Produce shipments increased nearly
1,000 cars the first week of May and
continued active the following week,
especially for Western lettuce and new
potatoes. Movement of old crop po
tatoes 1s decreasing about as fast as
the new <*op gains. Combined total
of potatoes is nearly 4,000 cars per
week, close to that of the same time
a year ago, but tending to increase
with more favorable harvesting
weather in the Gulf Coast region.
Onion carlot movement is decreas
ing, also that of asparagus, spinach,
sweet potatoes, apples and grapefruit.
Main source of supply for early vege
tables is shifting to the second early
States. Home-grown receipts of early
vegetables are increasing rapidly in
Northern market territory, these sup
plies taking the place of carlot ship
ments of some kinds to a great extent.
Potato Position Weak.
Prices of potatoes were inclined
downward the second week of May,
losing some of the gains of the pre
vious week, caused by unfavorable
weather conditions in the Gulf Coast
region. Alabama and Louisiana are
now shipping about one-third of the
potato supply. Central California is
becoming active and the shipments
of old potatoes still make up fully
one-third of the total, mostly from
Maine and Idaho.
Southern potatoes advanced during
the first 10 days of May, but were
declining later in the month, and
heavy supplies were in prospect from
the Gulf Coast region and from Cal
ifornia.
South Carolina potatoes have been
selling in some Northern markets at
$5.7B per barrel, compared with a
range of $5 to $6 for Florida Spald
ing Rose.
Supplies of onions from the old crop
are light in central markets and prices
have been holding firmly at $1 to
$1 50 per 50-pound sack for stock of
good quality from Western New York.
The trade in old onions has held out
unusually long because of the ordinary
quality of many Southern arrivals.
Southern onions also sell at about*
steady prices.
Cabbage Supplies Gain.
Supplies of cabbage Increased with
larger shipments from the Carolinas j
and Mississippi, and Eastern markets ;
declined sharply, losing 50c or rrv
per crate. Early arrivals from East- j
em Shore of Virginia were selling in 1
Northern markets at $1.25 to $1.75
per ll'2-bushel hamper. Cabbage
from South Carolina and Georgia
brought $1.50 to $2.50. Recent trend
is downward in Southern producing
sections under heavy supplies at
country shipping points.
Trade in lettuce is being supplied
mostly from California. Shipments
have been Increasing, quality is ir
regular and prices declining from the
high levels of early May. Prices of
North Carolina lettuce were declining
toward the middle of the month with
sales in Northern markets at 75c to
$1.50 per hamper. Southern cucum
bers and other hot weather vegetables
have been scarce and high in North
ern markets. Shipments of Florida
watermelons have begun.
Carrots were in better demand at
Eastern shipping points and prices
held firm at $1.40 to $1.50 per 100
pounds in the Rochester, N. Y„ dis
trict. A few sales of bulk stock
moved around $30 per ton.
Apple Markets Steady.
The apple position shows little
change. Baldwins of fair to good
grade sell at $2 to $2.25 per bushel
in the East and Middle West, and
around $1.80 at Western New York
shipping points. Other varieties
range from $1.50 to $2.50 In the large
markets. Indications are that most
of the apples will be out of Eastern
producing sections within two or
three weeks.
Strawberry prioes again are tending
to lower levels, with heavy supplies
from the Gulf Coast region and the
Southeast. While many of the re
ceipts are showing the results of ex
cessive rains, quality is generally
good and demand has been active.
The season has advanced northward
to the latitude of Virginia and Ten
nessee.
North Carolina Klondikes sell at
12c to 18c quart basis in Northern
markets and around $3 per 24-quart
orate in producing sections. Early
sales of Eastern Shore of Virginia
berries were from $4 to $5 per crate
in Eastern markets. Some rather or
dinary lots sold, quart basis, 10c to 13c.

Rallying Power Carried Over
From Friday, but
Volume Lags.
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 15.—Rallying
power carried over from the preceding
session was sufficient to lift most stocks
on the Curb Exchange fractions to
about 2 points today. Trading slack
ened, however, into a slow drift.
Industrials recaptured more of the
ground lost earlier in the week. Gulf
Oil moved up a point at one time and
American Cyanamid B., Lake Shore
Mines, Pittsburgh Plate Glass and
Wayne Pump were fractionally to more
than a point higher. Singer Manu
facturing spurted 2’^, on a small trans
action.
Utilities still lacked steam for a real
move. Minor changes up and down
were recorded in American Gas &
Electric, Electric Bond & Share and
Standard Power & Light.
