Stocks Decline
Minor Fractions
New York. June S (f The
itock market loafed (long at
lightly lower price leveli to
day. The trend wai far from de
cisive but losses did have an
edge over gains. Few stocks
moved more than minor frac
tions either way and numerous
key issues remained at Wednes
day's close.
Business was unusually slow,
with neither buying or selling
forces inclined to tackle the
market on any scale. Turnover
was at the rate of only 650,000
shares for the full session, one
of the smallest totals of the year
Investors and s p e c ul ators
shrugged off good news and bad.
The approaching long week-end,
plus widespread doubts concern
ing the future progress of the
market, were mainly responsi
ble.
The general price level is now
just above a two-year low which
was hit Monday. Meager de
mand has helped the market
since then.
Higher prices were paid most
of the day for U.S. Steel, Bethle
hem Steel, Woolworth, General
Electric, Radio Corp , Standard
Oil (N.J., and Twentieth Century-Fox.
Holding back were General
Motors, Chrysler, U.S. Rubber,
Montgomery Ward, Sears Roe
buck, United Aircraft, Western
Union, Gulf Oil and United Airlines,

Buying Helps in
Wheat Support
Chicago, June 9 W) Moder
ate buying on the part of flour
milli supported wheat on the
board of trade today. The mllli
were mojt active in July, which
ran up more than a cent at timet.
Other wheat contracts did not
show the strength o the near
by month.
Mill buying wai traced to
larger flour booking!, which in
turn appeared based on the ex
tended government price sup
port program announced late
Tuesday. Some bakers evidently
felt that, as a result of the pro
gram, wheat and flour prices
would not drop as much as had
been expected at harvest time.
The firm tone in July wheat
did not give much help to oth
er commodities. Corn eased as
purchases of cash grain on a
to-arrive basis from the country
increased to around 100,000
