Selling pressure was never very aggressive but leading issues were marked down fractions to more than 3 points. Some recent favorites were among the larger losers. Weakness first cropped out among the rails, then rapidly spread, mainly to the oil, steel and automobile divisions. The market started out at a fairly good clip, for a while, and then around noon picked up again. Richfield Oil dropped more than 3 points and losses of a point or more were posted for Houston Oil, Standard Oil of New Jersey, Sin clair, Union Pacific, Atlantic Coast Line, United States Steel, Youngs town Sheet, General Motors. Mont gomery Ward, American Woolen, In ternational Paper, Consolidated Nat ural Gas and Du Pont. American Telephone was one of the few in the plus column, along with Goodrich, Douglas Aircraft and Distillers Corp.-Seagrams. The Berlin situation was frequent ly mentioned in the financial district as a damper on buying enthusiasm. Concern over international deve'lop ments has been low for some time but, in the view of Wall Street, the argument between the three western powers and Moscow over the block aded city is rapidly reaching the crisis stage.

June 28 OP'.—Cotton fu tures were easy today under pressure of liquidation in nearby July which unset tled the balance of the market. The current selllns flurries at one time depressed prices as much as 92.30 a bale. The market later reco»ered partially on short covering and mill buytns which met only limited offerings. There was a good deal of swltchins from July to later months, influenced by the belief that export business In cotton will not develop In volume until the fall. Crop reports were generally favorable, with a forecast of scattered showers In East and West Texas where the cotton belt is In need of more rain. Later afternoon prices were 50 cents to 51.00 a bale lower than the previous close: July. 35.40; October. 32.78. and December, 32.43._ Foreign Exchange NEW YORK.

The first six months had just about everything necessary to make them among the most memorable and im portant in, the Nation’s peacetime economic history. There was a sharp drop in com modity prices in February that had economists believing inflation might be halted, and then a rise that car ried them almost to prebreak peaks. Basic industries refused wage bikes and reduced some prices for a while. Then, President Truman's rearmament program came along in March, inflation continued, prices in creased, wages started up again. The New York Stock Exchange languished in the doldrums for day* on end, but a spectacular advance in May carried the price level to the highest In 21 months. Now, at midyear, the Nation's economy is in high gear. A third round of wage Increases is well under way. Prices—both con sumer and industrial—are moving toward earlier peaks or above them. Construction costs climb as build ing booms. The home buyer has a bigger selection to choose from, but houses are costing him more and mortgage money is tighter. Every one appears to be on a buy ing spree—mostly for automobiles, homes, food and gasoline, the Com merce Department says. And more retail sales are on the cuff. The Federal Reserve Board says consumers are using more of. their savings, and estimates about one fourth of consumers will spend be yond their income this year. Generally, union labor has kept up with the dizzy chase of wages and prices. General Motors broke the wage line and others granted increases of around 8 to 10 per cent. But the white collar workers have fallen behind and the fixed income group—those living on pensions or investments—are going into debt. Management hesitates to add to its fixed costs, wondering how long the boom will last. Increased production has brought an almost record employment level and some industrialists fear a labor shortage by fall. Passage of the draft bill by Congress will have a tightening effect on the already tight labor market. Behind the stepped-up spending and increased production lie: yhe wage hikes, the rearmament program and the European Recovery Plan.

IRVIN SHAPIRO, ADVtkriSING U04 l»i STMHfw .w; . stiolins eeke are cautious and at variance in their predictions for the remainder of 1948. Many are unrestrained in their optimism. Some feel a necessary readjustment of the inflationary spiral must be near at hand. There are industrialists who are worried over the effects of steadily rising costs on their break-eveiv point—the dividing line between profit and loss. They say only «ji small decline in unit volume would throw .them into the red. Paul S. Willis, president of the Grocery Manufacturers of Amer ica, says: “Business will continue good. Over-all dollar sales are running slightly ahead of last year, although profit margins are declining be cause of rising costs." One thing seems certain—the supply will not catch up with the demand this year. Industry reports record profits, sales and dividends. To meet the demands f6r their products most industries are expanding their fa cilities But, like the home owner, the industrialist is finding expan sion costs higher than originally planned.
