NEW YORK, Dec . AP) The recovery of stock prices re ceived a setback today. Last week's bull movement was car ried over Into the early hoars of the . session, but profit taking combined with bear pressure, poured Into the market In increas ing: volume as the day wore on, and turned the trend ' distinctly downward before the close. .,. -The cross currents of activity swelled the day's turnover to the comparatlvly large ' volume of 5,011,600 shares, as compared to 714,800 on Friday. Gains of 2 to points among leading shares, conspicuous during the morning, were largely replaced by net loss es of similar extent at. tb close. The utilities and nigh pricea In dustrials were emphatically heavy. ' The reaction was received calm ly in Wall Street, as the market had grown ripe for a drop after last week's unexpectedly brisk up turn. Despite the revival of optim ism regarding business prospects, current operations remain compar atively .slack, and since their re cent trying experiences, specula tors have grown exceedingly wary about discounting the future very far In advance. U. S. Steel was rushed up about 8 points. during the early hours of the session to a new high for the recovery at 181, to th ac companiment of rumors of a spe cial meeting of directors tomorrow to consider a splitup. It was learn ed, however, that only the regular meeting of the finance committee will be held tomorrow, and no di rectors meeting is scheduled until late in January. Tbe stock reacted and closed with a net loss of near ly 3 points. PORTUWD HIT MARION, Ore.. Dec.
