New Factory Orders Top
Shipments in April
By the Associated Press.
Edward J. Noble, Commerce Un
dersecretary. said yesterday that in
April, for the first time in six
months, new orders received by
manufacturers exceeded shipments.
After last fall's sharp rise in fac
tory production orders lagged far
behind shipments, causing a large
accumulation of unsold goods.
In March the two factors nearly
balanced and in April, Noble said,
new orders pushed ahead of ship
ments on old orders. New orders
increased about 7 per cent over
March, while shipments remained
practically unchanged.
However, during April some ship
ments were made out of accumu
lated inventories instead of out of
current production, and inventories
of manufacturers declined about
$100,000,000. Seasonal declines in
production of some industries was
blamed for part of this filling of
orders out of inventories.

Watch War News
By VICTOR El BANK.
Associated Press Financial Writer.
NEW YORK. June 8.—War news
provided scant bullish stimulation
for the stock market today and
leading issues shifted over a nar
rowly irregular trail.
It was the slowest session since
last July 18, transfers for the two
hours approximating 199,250 shares.
Final price changes mostly were In
minor fractions either way.
Reports from Paris that the Nazis
were making progress with their
drive in Northern France offset to
some degree further indications the
French were putting up a stiff re
sistance. Bulletins placing the Ger
mans within 50 miles or so of Paris
were a bit disappointing to specu
lative forces which had been count
ing on the Allies holding on the
Somme-Aisne front.
Domestic business developments
were still the main sustaining mar
ket influence, brokers said, notwith
standing a little more pessimism
regarding proposed imposition of
heavy defense taxes on both individ
uals and corporations.
“Free" sterling backed away, along
with the French franc, following the
ruling of the British that the offi
cial and higher rate for this cur
rency would henceforth be used for
all foreign commerce. Bonds were
steady and commodities mixed.
Motors managed to tack on modest
plus signs now and then as talk
was heard of a few of these com
panies going into armaments lines
in a big way.
Willys-Overland common and pre
ferred were up most of the day
following announcement this con
cern, with a subsidiary, would enter
the munitions field.
General Motors and Chrysler were
resistant. The former was under
stood to be in a position to take care
of expected Army orders without
any large increase in pay rolls.
Ahead at one time or another
were Douglas Aircraft, Sperry, Gen
eral Electric, Du Pont, Anaconda.
International Nickel, Eastman Kodak
and Consolidated Edison.
Inclined to lag were U. S. Steel.
Bethlehem. Youngstown Sheet, New
York Central, Pennsylvania. Mont
gomery Ward, Goodyear. Allied
Chemical. Westinghouse. Owens
Illinois. Texas Corp. Boeing and
U. S. Rubber preferred.
New York Cotton
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 8.—Cotton fu
turps rallied in late trading today
when persistent trade and spot
house buying encountered reduced
volume of offerings. Final prices
were up 5 to 8 points.
Commission house and Southern
liquidation in early dealings was
supplemented by some Bombay sell
ing but pressure diminished at the
close.
