NEW YORK, Feb. 9-(JP)-The

derly retreat Monday in the
.'face of a somewhat cloudier far
Pacific war picture.
Again analysts were encour
aged by the fact liquidation was
relatively negligible. Transfers
of 404,220 shares compared with
431,860 last Friday and were
among the smallest since last Oc
tober. The Associated Press aver
age of 60 stocks was off .5 of a
point at 37.4, widest setback for
this barometer since Jan. 21.
DuPont dipped to a new low
since 1938 and Dow Chemical
touched a bottom level for the
past year.
Most steels, rubbers, dtts, air
crafts, coppers and utilities kept
to narrow territory.
In the backward division were
US Steel, Bethlehem, Youngs
town Sheet, Santa Fe, NY Cen
tral, Pennsylvania, Great North
ern, General Motors, Chrysler,
American Telephone, Western
Union, Sears Roebuck, Montgom
ery Ward, J. I. Case, Douglas
