Bails Reach 3-Year Tops Industrials ; Generally Higher in Broad, Heavy Session NEW " YORK, Feb. : 25-(a)-Ra stocks continued to climb to new tops for more than three years in Thursday's market on one of the largest turnovers since late 1941. ' ( While industrials did relatively well from the start, many, touch ing two-year peaks, these were handicapped to some extent by profit cashing on : the long up swing. Even, the transportations slipped a shade under the best at the close although final plus marks ranged from fractions to around two points for favorites. The Associated Press 60-stock average ended up .4 of a point at 48.1, highest since November i, 1940. It was the fourth successive advance. The rail composite was up .6 at 22, best figure since early November. 1939. The utility index also registered a new high since October 14, 1941; Transfers mounted to 1.777.290 shares against 1,691,110 the day before. It was the broadest market since last December. 961 individual is sues being traded. Of these, 588 were up, 168 down and ZZ un changed. . Prominent risers included San ta Fe,.

Wheat Prices Rise to New 6-Year High CHICAGO, Feb. 2$-JP)-Piices In the wheat pit aavancea o new highs for at least the past six with the September con tract bringing more than any de livery in over 13 years, on small but persistent mill buying Thurs day. The strength in wheat was re flected in the rye pit, where new seasonal peaks for all deliveries were recorded. Corn held at ceil ings throughout the day. Oats dis played less buoyancy than other grains, apparently hampered by fear of Canadian imports when lake navigation opens. At the close wheat was up -ft, May $1.43 -1.43, July $1.43T.-4. Buying of the bread cereal was based mainly on expectations of favorable "legislative develop ments. Grain men believed the senate would approve the Bank head bill, which would prevent deducting subsidies in computing parity as a basis for agricultural price ceilings. News that the bill had passed was received after the market closed. Support - was also f oncoming from a letter of G rover Hill, as sistant secretary of agriculture, to William Jeffers, rubber adminis trator. Hill favored the expanded use of grains In the production of alcohol for synthetic rubber. A report from Kansas said wheat acreage seeded in that state last fall was the smallest in 20 years, with indications the harvest will drop considerably below last ' year. r Cooper Convalesces LINCOLN Dicky Cooper, only son of Mr. and Mrs. FJwood Coop er, is convalescing from an at tack of rbonchitis with which he has been ill for two weeks.
