WAR REPORTS
WEIGH STOCKS
KEW YORK, Dec. 22 (IP)
Confusing war bulletins, com
bined with another burst of tax
selling, helped take the starch
out of an early rally In today's
stock market.
Motors led the list on a
morning advance that put an
assortment of leaders up frac
.. tions to more than a point.
Prices began to stumble after
mid-day and, at the close, in
itial advances were replaced by
declines in numerous instances.
Most setbacks were moderate
but a few ran to 3 points or so.
' Dealings were speedy at in
tervals and transfers for the
, full proceedings w e r in the
neighborhood of l,4uO,uou
shares.
American Can broke to a new
1141 bottom as the serious
shortage of tin threatened this
company's normal output and
talk was heard of the tighten
ing of restrictions on the staple
by the OPM.
Others retreating to the "new
low" range were American Tel
ephone, Chrysler, Goodyear and
U. S. Rubber common and pre
ferred. Lessening of crude rub
ber supplies because of the Far
Eastern conflict continued to
handicap shares in this group.
Backward were Westlnghouse,
Standard Oil (NJ), Texas Co,
Kennecott, U. S. Steel, Mont
gomery Ward, Glenn Martin,
Philip Morris, U. S. Gypsum,
Great Northern and Pennsyl
vania. ' , Santa Fe was resistant as di
rectors voted a final 1941 divi
dend of $1 on the common,
- Mora hopeful performers were
General Motors, J. C Penney,
Sears Roebuck, International
Nickel and Western Union.
' Bonds and commodities were
.Irregular.

TO SMALL SCALE
CHICAGO, Dec. 22 () Ex
cept for sale of substantial quan
tities of grain for shipment from
Chicago at steady prices in most
cases, trade in grains was on a
small scale today.
Usual Christmas week inertia
gripped the futures market and
was accentuated by unwilling
ness of many dealers to venture
far due to price control and war
uncertainties. Some selling of
December contracts on the last
day for trading in these deliver'
ies weakened prices, particularly
in the corn market, where De
cember corn was off about
cent. Soybeans were up about a
cent at times.
Sales for shipment from Chi
cago included wheat to outside
mills and oats to eastern feed
manufacturers but the bulk of
business was in corn, with 150,
000 bushels sold up to noon.
Wheat closed 1 cents lower to
1 cents higher compared with
Saturday, December $1,231-1.23
May $1,251-1; corn 1-11 cents
lower, December 761c, May 821
