McrtJzetl and tyincutcial STOCK MARKET MOOT HELD TRIVIAL NEW YORK, Aug. 13 UP) Stocks gave off some color of recovery today but in actual sub stance the market's improvement was rather trivial. A slow hardening process set in after a somewhat ragged start. Independent firmness of U. S. Steel and signs of better demand for rails, mail order shares, cop pers and specialties helped to build general resistance in the latter proceedings. The-close was mixed with changes mostly in fractions. Dealings were about 480,000 shares. Some buying was encouraged, brokers reported, by a steady tapering of offerings which en couraged belief in speculative circles the list was about due for a turn after two weeks of almost continuous slow decline. War bulletins and domestic news con tained little bullish inspiration.

There is every indication that those who hold them will gel higher prices for them. Prices have gone up, and the trend is still higher. - We think that holding used cars is in flationary. We're against such a policy. The foundation of our business is new cars and this community has given us record new-car sales this year. We . will not now gamble in used cars, at the expense of the public who have given us one of the best years in our history. So our used cars are priced downward, for immediate clearance. On our lot, now to an even great er extent than in recent months you will find "buys" substantially un der the market. We invite you to come in and look them over.
