York -UPD- An easing in short-term money rates and a modest improvement in the bond market this month has softened the downward pres sure on equities which a tight ening money market tends to exert, according to Goodbody & Co. But even so, it notes, rela tively tight money seems to be here to stay. "No equity in vestment need be made today in expectation of easy money." Among the reasons that still justify an equity program, the firm adds, is that the steel settlement along with increas ing mechanization of man ufacturing provides promise of profits development in an environment of near price stability. ?. Bache & Co notes that American Tobacco has moved within a two-point range dur ing the past month in the face of a sharp market break. "A break through accom panied by increased trading activity would signal the next phase of its broad upward pattern. The stock of General Mills Inc., now selling some 23 per cent below its 1959-60 high, offers excellent value, accord ing to Business Reports Inc. "An investment in this 'for gotten' stock at current prices or lower should prove a re warding long-term holding." ATTENTION EAGLES! DANCE Sat., Jan. 30 . .
