May 14.—Bullish contingents maintained control of the stock market today despite fur ther selling opposition. Dealings quieted after a fairly active start. The ticker tape, for a brief interval, was a minute late. Plus signs running to 2 points pre dominated near the fourth hour, with new highs for the past year or so numerous. Bidding still was based partly on business optimism stemming from rearmament spending and large scale European outlays. The urge to employ idle funds was a specu lative and investment factor. Labor disputes, including the Chrysler strike, provided a caution* ary inflrence but failed to bring much liquidation. Scant cheer was seen in the Washington-Moscow diplomatic tangle. Sdme accounts were trimmed on expectations of a technical correction. Canadian Pacific again was a star performer, reflecting petroleum pros pects for this company’s properties. The stock opened up ?* of a point on a 10,000-share bloc and developed further strength later. Washington Exchange SALES. Garflnckel common—65 at 18%. Potomac Electric Power 3.80 pi “A"—25 . at 44%.

Horgan Associated Press Financial Writer NEW YORK, May 14.—The belief is rapidly gaining ground in Wall Street that market conditions are right for a large-scale program to raise money for business by selling common and preferred stocks. In the last few days more than $40,000,000 worth of such stocks have been snapped up by investors. Many of the financial district's smartest operators have been surprised by the fast public response to the stock offerings. A few months ago the average investment banker would shake his head in sorrow at the suggestion that he could profitably sell to the public a common stock issue of any size. He’d tell you why, in great detail: People are afraid of a recession, or inflation, or Russia; taxes are too high; security regulations are too strict; margin requirements are too high, and so on. Now Wall Street appears to be learning that there are plenty of people, all over the country, who have money to invest—if the price Is right. Recent Issues Cited. Here’s what happened to two spe cific issues: On Wednesday 680,000 shares of common stock of Halliburton Oil Well Cementing Co. were offered to the public at $25 a share. The sell ing syndicate, headed by Lehman Brothers, reported that by night fall the issue was completely sold out. Investors, presumably, liked the price. 0 “Very encouraging," commented the manager of the syndicate which marketed the stock. He indicated that his firm had an eye on addi tional stock financing In the near future. On the same day, the First Bos ton Corp. headed a syndicate which sold 800,000 shares of $25-par con vertible preference stock of South ern California Edison Co. at a price to yield to the purchaser about 4.34 per cent. The yield (which Is based on the price) was generous and a conversion feature attractive—the issue was a quick sellout. Billions for Expansion. The Nation’s business needs bil lions of dollars to build, expand and repair Its plants and facilities. Since early last year, when the mar ket for new common and preferred stocks went sour, business has re sorted to many other methods of raising money. Funds were obtained from banks, insurance companies, corporate sav ings and current earnings, and from the sale of bonds. This type of bor rowing, though, has a serious draw back—the borrower is charged by the lender for the use of the money. A business, on the other hand, pays its common stock holders only when earnings justify a dividend.

New York Cotton NEW YORK. May 14 MV—Cotton fu tures were steady In quiet dealings today, supported by short covering, trade and local demand.

A private crop survey said that acreage ideas in the eastern cotton belt looked for an Ircrease of. 124 to 15 per cent over last season An increase of 104 per cent was anticipated in the central belt. Higher acreage Ideas appeared to be off set by the more favorable export outlook and expectation of a higher Government loan on the next cotton crop. There were 117 additional May trans ferable notices issued todsy. according to the posting of the New York Cotton Ex change. but trade quarters reported actual tenders Issued were somewhat larger than that figure Bate afternoon prices were 10 to 85 a bale higher than the previous close: July. 37.45; October. 33.77, and December. .33.23. _ Chicago Grain CHICAGO.

Bums Adherents Map Re-election Drive After AFGE Head Resigns Union supporters of James B. Bums, who resigned yesterday as president of the AFL American Fed eration of Government Employes, today ma'pped plans to gain rank and-file support for Mr. Bums in his expected bid for re-election at the AFGE*s convention in August. Mr. Bums resigned yesterday for strategic reasons, his backers re vealed. They said his resignation was tendered in order to prevent the AFGE's Executive Council, which sought to oust him from office, from naming its own interim president. His resignation, however, gives the presidency to Mrs. Bemiece Heffner, the union’s secretary-treasurer, who will serve until September. Issues Statement. Another reason for his resigna tion, Mr. Bums said, was his desire to spare the union, between now and convention time, any unpleasant publicity that might have resulted from his battle with the council. In a statement, Mr. Bums de clared: “Differences arise in the affairs of men and organizations, and I sup pose they always will. They have now in the federation. If my ambi tion has always moved me only to achieve ultimately the best interests of/the membership, personal con siderations of every kind should be put aside for the common good. Already enough publicity has oc curred to have a disadvantageous effect felt within the federation. Regardless of the merits of any or ganization differences, I cannot per mit it to continue. Council Cancels Meeting. "Therefore, to prevent such fur ther unfavorable publicity, and for the best interests of those for whom I’ve worked so long and whose af fection* and confidence I hold so dear, I have tendered my resigna tion as president which has now been accepted effective tomorrow.” The council, which had been scheduled to meet here tomorrow in an attempt to force Mr. Bums from office, subsequently canceled its meeting. It had been reported that the council would have named James Yaden, Civil Service Commission official, as the union’s interim presi dent, with the view of officially electing him in September. Mr. Yaden, however, said today that “I am not now a candidate or applicant for the job.” Mi-. Yaden said that he would accept the presidency in September only if it could be obtained “unani mously and without bitter fac tional battle.” N. Y. Bond Market SELECTED LIST OF ISSUES.
