. Reasons xor the comeback va

the General Motors strike which
aroused hopes that this dispute

A! batch of pleasing year-end

chology persisted as an argument
for- the investment of idle cash.
. Rails, j steels, motors, coppers

riers were buoyed by a federal
court's approval of th St Paul
amended reorganization plan and
expectations some roads would
boost December disbursements to
Stockholders. Extreme advances
