Stock Market Firmer
As Rubber Shares,
Steels Show Strength
>y th» Auociatcd Pros *
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.—There
was a semblance of progress to
day in the stock market based on
the advance of a few major di
visions.
Steels and rubbers stepped
ahead smartly, and there was
some help from chemicals and
oils.
The strength in steels, modest
though it appeared, was regarded
as significant because of the
lowered earnings reports turned
in by not only Bethlehem and
United States Steel but also by I
the other companies this week.
Dow Chemical shot ahead 4
points at times in fairly active
trading, other chemicals were
moderately higher.
Plymouth Oil was up substan
tially after directors declared a
dividend of 40 cents on new com
mon as compared with 50 cents
paid on the old stock before a
two-for-one SDlit effective .Tniv an
Boeing dropped 2 «/a at 44 l/a on
its opening sale and subsequently
traded around that figure after
reporting earnings equal to $2.85
a share for the first half, com
pared with $5.15 a year ago.
Higher taxes and smaller profits
on Government orders was the
reason given for the decline in
earnings.
Stocks higher included U. S.
Steel, Republic Steel, Chrysler,,
Goodyear, U. S. Rubber, Inter
national Harvester, Douglas Air
craft, Admiral Corp., Radio Corp.,
Anaconda Copper, South Ameri
can Gold, Du Pont, American
Woolen, Standard Oil (New Jer
sey), and Mclntyre-Porcupine.
Lower were Union Pacific. Gulf
Oil, American Cyanamid, West
inghouse Electric, International
Paper, General Motors. Sears
Roebuck, National Distillers
(new), aqd Schenley Industries.
Trading in corporate bonds was
lighfc. Prices moved narrowly, in
the over-the-counter market.
Governments were steady.

New York Cotton
NEW YORK. Aug. 1 (fl*i.—Cotton futures
continued to display a heavy tone in fore
noon trading with prices near the lows
ror the day. Purther hedging and com
mission house selling were absorbed prin
cipally through short covering. Some of
the trade selling in nearby October was
attributed to liquidation of futures hold
ings against the purchase of spot cotton.
Traders were inclined to switch from
October to later months in anticipation of
hedging in October later on in greater
volume. The fact that nearby October
and December broke through previous
resistance points also had a depressing
effect on sentiment.
Noon prices were 56 cents to SI a
cale lower than the previous close.

Some Steel Users See !
Production Cut Due
To Materials Control j
By *h« Associated Pre»»
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.—Some;
steel users who have been unable i;
|!
to get mills to accept their orders)
under the controlled materials
plan may be forced to cui^ail pro
duction within 60 days, the Iron
Age, metal-working trade weekly
said today.
Some of these rejected orders;
are for important programs, the
publication said. It reported:
“One was from a manufacturer
of parts for tanks; others were
from railroad car builders.”
If layoffs result from lack of
steel, the Iron Age said, labor’s
voice will join the chorus of an
guished cries over CMP.
The Iron Age reported custom
ers are criticizing steel sales
people for not returning steel al
lotments more ouicklv. It assigned
this reason:
Steelmaking operations this
week were placed at 102 per cent
of rated capacity, a gain of half a
point from the preceding week.
Chicago Grain
CHICAGO, Aug. 1 IIP).—Gains rang
ing to more than a cent in wheat lent
some support to the rest ol the market
on the Board of Trade today.
Wheat opened % to 1 cent higher
and extended Its advance in early deal
ings. Trading was not active, but those
who wanted to buy had to reach for of
ferings. Corn and oats firmed slightly
after starting no better than, steady.
Wheat near the end of the first hour
was iy*-l5/a cents higher. September
*2.37%; corn was %-% higher. Septem
ber $1.71%, and oats were %-% higher,
September 77%. Soybeans were %-k%
cents lower, September $2.81%. and lard
was 10 to 27 cents a hundred pounds
lower, September $10.25.
Less favorable news from cease-fire
negotiations in Korea, with even a pos
sibility that the entire negotiations might
break down, brought a little buying into
wheat, traders felt. However, this was
not considered as important a factor as
the possibility of export business pick
ing up.
Currently the International Wheat
Agreement Council Is meeting in London
Some grain men believe that foreign buying
under the agreement, which has been noth
ing to get excited about so far this season,
will expand sharply once the council has
finished its meeting.
European production of wheat Is smaller
this year In several Important countries.
The fact makes it difficult for many grain
men to believe foreign buying can hold
off much longer, particularly in view of
the tense international situation and the
need to stockpile wheat.
Another factor in the wheat strength
was the feeling the Government crop esti
mates for August will show a drop in win
er wheat prospects. Temperatures rang
ing as high as 100 degrees were forecast
for North Dakota. That might cause some
deterioration to spring wheat.
Weather was ideal for growth of the
corn and soybean crops In the Midwest.
Corn receipts, however, continued very
light, although the trade was expecting an
upturn if the new crop continues to make
