Strength in the major commodl tlea was partly responsible for the forward tilt, brokers said, the specu lative demand for staples apparently reflecting a revival of the inflation ary possibilities inherent In the gov ernment's forthcoming pump-priming progrsm and the growing feeling In the financial sector the huge amount of Idle bank credit may soon get to work. Transfers approximated 600,000 shares, or more than 120,000 over the previous session. - Today's closing prices for 82 se lected stocks follow: Al. Chem. & Dye ....., Am. Can Am. & Pgn. Power A. T.

"The Adventures of Tom Sswyer." which had its local premiere yesterday at the Oraterlan theatre. And no wonder I Warm In human Interest, rich In Its Intriguing con ceptions of "puppy love,'' humorous, blending Impish mischief . making with hlh adventure, contrasting pa thos with rare comedy, making sus pense a factor In spectacle, It stands as a splendid tribute to the highest tdeala to which motion ploturea as pire. It Is the kind of picture that any person, no matter who he may be, or in which direction his preferences may fall, should be esger to see. And It can readily be recommended to every man, woman or ohlld with the confidence that It will meet with full approval. Well presented, expertly played by Its junior and adulst actors, finely applied color, the picture preserves sit the traditions of Msrk Twain and his ageless characters Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, Becky Thatcher. Joe Harper, Aunt Polly, Injun Joe, Muff potter, Amy Lawrence, darky Jim, little brother Sid and sister Mary. Automatically It makes a star or Tommy Kelly and uncovers a child to be treasured In Ann anils, who plsys the psrt of Becky. And such sterling players sj May Robson, Wsl ter Brennan and Victor Jory will probably look upon their own work In this picture as ranking among the high spots of their careers. The beloved scenes of the book read and re-read by millions are all found here: the fence whitewashing bit wherein Tom "allows" the other boys to help him; Tom's "engsgs ment" to Becky a delightful part of the picture; the trading of treasures for Sunday school prize; the scone In the graveyard when Tom and Huck witness the murder; the running away to be pirates; the returning to their own funeral service; and final ly, the thrilling cave scenes. Never a bit of that waa missed, and all com bining to make "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, one of the most pleas ant experiences any showgoer csn ever hope to capture. A now Donald Duck cartoon, In the Walt Disney manner that makes these colored shorts outstanding In their field, has Donald getting tangled up with his three nephews In an added show treat on the same program. And finally, we mustn't forget to compliment Ruth Luy In presenting her dancing pupils on the stage of the theare last night. It Is easily ths outstanding danco revue she hss yet shown here, and richly deserves the applause with which the audience greeted each sequence.
