(AP) Early rallying efforts appeared In today's stock market but these were later succeeded by a generally lower drift. An afternoon break In grain, cotton and rubber futures took the starch out of most potential ah are buyers, Despite sliding tendencies exhibited by numerous leaden, including steel, coppers and motors, several oils and specialties managed to buck the quiet celling trend for modest advances. Speculative and investment forces could find nothing outstanding in the newa to stimulate action either way and the side-lines were crowded with commission h6ue customers waiting for Inspiration.
