Market Moves
Slightly To End
Narrowly Mixed
New York - fl.'P! - Stocks
closed narrowly mixed today.
The popular averages moved
slightly in both directions all
day as they apparently flirt
ed with the Dec. 5 recovery
high of 653.99. Any move
through this level, brokers
say, would be interpreted as
extremely bullish and would
probably signal the beginning
of another full-fledged rally.
In their favor, the bulls had
rising steel production, an op
timistic appraisal of 1063 bus
iness prospects by a symposi
um of top executives, and
word that tax reduction pro
posals have been put into final
form by the administration.

Advertising helped it happen
By stimulating mass demand, advertising helped create 1
mass market for electric light bulbs. As demand grew,
more and more were made. The more of them made, the
less each one cost. Result: new and better electric light
bulbs mass produced for more people at lower prices by
America's remarkable and competitive economic system.
Is this worthwhile? Then, so is advertising worthwhile.
