STOCK MARKET
CONTINUES TO
NEW YORK, March 17 W
, The dock market got the green
light not St Pat'f today and
extended Monday'! recovery
iaunt by fractions to two or
more point.
Rail! led the advancing pro
cession at the start in the wake
of the ICC rejection of the price
administration's plea for post
ponement of freight rate in
creases. Oils, chemicals, steels, motors
and specialties soon eclipsed the
carriers when speculative and
investment sentiment was heart
ened by the MacArthur shift to
Australia as supreme command'
er and word sizable numbers of
United States forces bad arrived
in that outpost for a smash at
the Japanese invaders. Trans
fers were around 500,000 shares.
A smattering of new highs for
the year was in evidence, among
which were Santa Fe, General
Motors and Chrysler.
Others on the forward swing
included Great Northern, Chew
peake and Ohio, Union Pacific
Bethlehem. Sears Roebuck, J. L
Case, S perry. Standard Oil
(N. J.J Texas Co., Phillips Pe
troleum, Anaconda, Allied
Chemical, Eastman Kodak,
Westinghouse, J. C Penney,
Philip Morris and International
Harvester.
The rails lost some of their
steam as the office of defense
transportation requested the
roads to hold down certain rate
hoists notwithstanding the OPA
defeat
Carrier bonds generally tilted
higher. Commodities steadied
after forenoon hesitancy.

Grain prices fluctuated nervous

buying attributed to consuming
interests and previous short sell
ers. Users of corn apparently
were in the market for more vol
