New York, July 17. P) The
stock market dropped back into
the doldrums today after an
early attempt to resume an ad
vance fizzled.
When the rally maneuver
struck a snag, traders who had
bought on the upturn in the
previous session, hurried to
lighten holdings. Gains of many
issues changed into net declines
of fractions to more than a point,
but some held part of the ad
vantage to the finish. Transac
tions approximated 375,000
shares.
Down most of the session were
United States Steel. Bethlehem,
Westinghouse, Du Pont, Chrys
ler, Douglas, Standard Oil of
New Jersey, Loft, Western
Union, American Can and Santa
Fe.
J. I. Case spurted 2 ',4 on a
single transaction. Also higher
most of the time were Allied
Chemical, Consolidated Edison,
Caterpillar, Union Carbide and
U. S. Rubber.
A rise ins bonds tapered into
a narrow sidewise market.

And the reason? It takes
not one, not five, or twelve

from 33 separate kettles, to

Each brew is as fine as
