Weakness, Strength
Feature Stock List
New York OP) Weakness
in Foster Wheeler and
strength in Thermoid featured
an irregular stock market to
day. Foster Wheeler fell nearly
five points on omission of its
dividend. Thermoid was very
active with one block involv
ing 53,600 shares at a gain of
nearly a point. Thermoid was
said to be the target of bid
ding by several companies.
So far as the averages were
concerned the market got no
where. Utilities ruled firm
while industrials and rails
lost a tiny mite.
