; Minute Changes
: Week's Trend
NEW YORK, April 25-W-The
stock market Saturday put the
brakes on the week's sharp decline
through a moderate lilt in prices
just before the close.
Prior to the turn many of the
leaders had moved sluggishly to
fractionally lower levels. Ameri
can Telephone sold off a point to
ft new four year low but shaded
Its loss at the end.
Persistent heaviness in a few
of the pivotal industrials was an
offset to the recovery trends else
where and the Associated Press
60-stock composite was unchanged
at 32.3, the lowest level reached
since April, 1933. Transactions
were 156,400 shares compared
with 184,660 in the short session
a week ago.
Stocks modestly ahead at the
close included Sears Roebuck,
Douglas Aircraft, Goodyear,
American Can, Standard Oil (NJ),
Western Union, International Har
vester, US Gypsum and Eastman
Kodak, the last named rising 1
points.
In minus territory were Johns
Man ville, American Smelting,
S perry and Owens-Illinois. Mark
ed up slightly in the rail group
were Great Northern and Chesa
peake & Ohio.
Western Union and Postal Tele
graph pfd. were helped by re
ports indicating progress in the
move for legislative action to per
mit their consolidation.

Local business folk report off
the record that "Know-Your-
Neighbor week, the origin of
which is credited to Portland, was
set at just the right time before
the primaries.
Only, they add, the candidates
started the week off early. The
"neighborly handshake has been
going the rounds In earnest during
the past week. '
"When you see us shaking hands
next week," a local business man
was beard to remark Friday,,
probably it will be a politician and
not a neighbor who has cornered
us." -
Visiting candidates have been
more numerous at Silverton dur
ing the past, week, It is reported,
than grossbeaks and sparrows for
which Silverton has long been
known.
