( AP) Buy. ers picked their stocks cautiously to day and the market moved ahead at a barely perceptible pace. For a while after a little spurt at the opening, dealings dropped almost into a complete stalemate. Absence of selling pressure, however, seemed to encournge some traders to bid for shares and leading industrials pointed upward again toward the finish. Transactions held to the previous slow pace, approximating only 400,000 shares. Today's closing prices for 32 select ed stocks follow: Al. Chem. Dye ... 150 Am. Can .. 87 Am. & Fgn. Pow. i 34 A.

On his recent trip to Washing ton." said Martin. "Mr. Sackett boasts that he received an audience with John L. Lewis . Now Ltwls Is not exactly friendly to my campaign either. I have found It necessary to criticize him as well as his two alien leaders out here Mr. Bridges of Aus tralia and Mr. Prltchett of Canada, both enjoying the hospitality of our fine country ; grace of the secretary of lubor. Madam Perkins. , Justifies Criticism "I have been critical of Madam Perkins on several occasions and t think the circumstances Justi fied the criticism. Her official acts have brought much labor distress to our state. T have also offended the national labor relations board, one of her fa- vorlto official children, whose rulings have disrupted our Industry and thrown thousands of our workers out of employment. We are still suffer ing from the mal-admlnlstratlon of the Wagner labor act by this board.
