Assur.vce Market Experts Agree Supports Will Keep List From Decline I By ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor New York i? Market ex perts are pretty well in agree ment that the list has enough built-in supports to keep it from a big decline at this time. The main one of these is the inflationary forces at work throughout the economy. One market commentator says this is a strong offset to continued mon etary restraints.

They top it with inflationary forces which are supposed to : lead investors to seek haven in ' common stocks. ' More Goods in Demand Then there is prospect ahead of a big population making de i mands for more and more goods: : the outlook for vast strides in I peactime uses of nuclear ener- E'; moves toward greater use of j automation. i Also on the favorable side are indications that inventories are i getting trimmed down sufficient j ly to warrant an early spurt in ! maufacturing; an apparent low in residential building to be fol j Iqwcd by an upturn: a pickup in ' automobile and steel production. I Also the road building program j is reportedly pickup up; summer 'travel with its big spending is i getting under way; farm income lis improving; and there is a : strong, stable consumer demand for goods. j On the adverse side there are such items as tight money, dis- armament talk: cutbacks in some military procurement; no tax cut I this year; some poor- earnings : statements; and a bond market suffering from indigestion. Trust Busting Worrisome A big factor that might come into the picture to frighten Wall Street is the trust-busting move ment gathering momentum in Washington. The Du Pont case of last week is said to open the way for greater concentration on anti trust activity. Wall Street, of course, is in terested in what disposition the court will make of the Du Pont case finally. It is up to the court to say what should be done about the 63.000,000 shares of General Motors stock Du Pont holds. Selling that amount of stock is said to be out of the question since it would knock the price of GM down sharply. A distribu tion to Du Pont stockholders would boom that stock and prob ably help the whole market, ac cording to some commentators. Incidentally, Wall Street isn't taking the disarmament talk too seriously. It is worried over cut backs in some military appro priations, though.

Plains States Hit By Violent Storms By UNITED PRESS Violent storms ripped the Plains Stales Sunday and today, with tornadoes touching down in at least three states and heavy rains in parts of Kansas and Oklahoma. Twisters raced through central Soutli Dakota, western Kansas and northwestern Oklahoma dur ing the night. There were no re ports of serious damage. Funnel clouds were sighted in sections of Arkansas and along the eastern slopes of the central Rockies. Cooler weather overspread the Rockies, easing the immediate threat of flooding from rapidly melting mountain snows. Off the Gulf Coast, a tropical storm veered northeastward into the open seat after capsizing a cabin cruiser with the apparent loss of five lives near St. Peters burg, Fla. Mostly fair skies are seen for New England and the mid-Atlantic states, while schattered show ers are expected west of the Rockies except for the Pacific Northwest.
