NEW YORK. Feb. 8—For the
third consecutive session the stock
marekt today leaned to the rally
ing side with favorites extending
gains by fractions to around 2
points.
The list began to gather sup
port after a forenoon spent in un
even territory. Aircrafts displayed
firmness at the start. Selected
steels, motors and specialties then
stepped into line and, at the close,
plus signs were to be seen in virtual
ly all groups. Volume picked up for
a while, but slackened later. Trans
fers approximated 700.000 shares,
best in about two weeks.
There were few outstanding de
velopments in business. Congress,
politics or the European war, but
speculative contingents thought the k
list appeared more responsive to *
bullish inspiration than otherwise.
In addition, the opinion was wide
spread that the recent industrial ••
recession may have been pretty well
discounted.
New highs for the past year were »
recorded for Studebaker and Dresser
Manufacturing, among others. Prom
inent on the upside were Douglas
Aircraft. Boeing. Glenn Martin,
Chrysler, General Motors, United
States Steel. Bethlehem. Sloss- Shef
field. Montgomery Ward. New York
Central Pullman. Westingliouse,
American Can. Philip Morris, Home
stake Mining, California Packing and
Consolidated Coppermines.
Chicago Grain
By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. Feb. 8—Wheat prices
reached their highest level in two
weeks today as the market advanced
2 cents a bushel, due to buying in
spired partly by forecast of cold
weather over the grain belt.
Temperatures as low as 10 degrees
above zero were predicted for some
sections of the hard winter wheat
zone Southwest.
Eastern interests were in the mar
ket for oats and rye on rumors that
Finland may be a purchaser. Some -
Canadian wheat was sold to Great
Britain and the continent, and Fin- •
land took quantities of U. S lard
