By LESLIE GOULD
NEW YORK, April 30 (1.N.5.).
A flurry of short covering steadied
the market in the final dealings
today, after stocks had fallen to
new lows in the early trading.
Support accorded U. S. Steel
and American Telephone were
further sustaining influences. The
recovery was slight, however,
heavy selling of the rails continued
to unsettle the list to the close.
Trading Pace Slow
New lows were made by Atchi
son, Pennsylvania, N. Y. Central.
American Can, Woolworth, Sears
Roebuck. General Electric, Radio,
Union Carbide, and Houston Oil.
Trading was at a slow pace, with
volume around 400,000 shares.
Closing prices were:
U. S. Steel 28 1 /4, up %; U. S.

Bradstreet's Notes
Small Retail Gains
Reports from 55 cities through
out the country for the week show
a small seasonal upturn has taken
place in department store and
other merchandising, Bradstreet
reports.
The lull in manufacturing and
Industrial communities has con
tinued except in a few cities of
the central part of the country,
review said. The small increase
in sales is not widespread, and has
developed only in moderate priced
goods.
BOND MARKET
NEW YORK, April 30 (1.N.5.).
Trading on the bond market today
was characterized by conflicting
price movements. Turnover was

COARSE YARN ACTIVE
NEW YORK. April 30 H.N.S.) — The ,
coarse yarn cloths market today was
a bit more active. Recessions of %c
to %c In selling prices of various
print cloth numbers occurred and re
sulted in a wave of buying. The
rapidity of declines left a number '
of Incongruous price relationships, with
some styles selling at higher prices
for narrow width than for the wider
goods of the same count, and with
some low count g »ods bringing better
prices than const ructions with more
picks to the inch.

COTTON SLOGS
DOWN TO NEW
BOTTOM
NEW YORK, April 30 (I.NJS.).
Cotton futures today again broke
sharply with losses for the day
averaging almost $1 a bale. May
cotton set a new low on the cur
rent move.
There was some further selling
of new crop months credited to
■ Southeastern mill interests as
hedges against accumulated stocks
of cotton goods. Commission
1 firms liquidated near months.
Southern selling and hedge sales
were light.
The best support came from
the trade and this was combined
■ with scattered buying from
Liverpool, the Continent and
wire firms.
The report of 50 per cent, cur
tailment aimed at by print cloth
mills tended to off-set the effect
of favorable weekly statistics
showing decreases in the visible
supply both of American and all
kinds of cotton and the into
sight movement somewhat less
than a week ago.
Closing prices showed losses of
19 to 25 points, with May off 25
at $5.47; July off 23 at $5.63; Oc
tober off 22 at $5.86- December off
21 at $6.00: January off 20 at,
$6.08 and March ’33 off 19 at
$6.23.
