Wall Street New York, July 20 (U.R) Stocks turned irregular today after the announcement of the attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler. The market opened on a firm er note and scored substantial early gains under the leader ship of Ralls before meeting Drofit-taklng that eliminated tne rise in many Instances ana scaled gains sharply In most others. Wall Street experts viewed the early rise, in the face of noramlly bearish news such as the formation of a new cabinet in Japan, as a direct reflection of the "good feeling" resulting from lessened nervous tension. Late in the session steel shares were slightly lower while In the rails small gains were cared in almost every case. Pere Marquette Preferred showed a loss of more than a point.
