Industrial Stock Averages
'Bullish1 To New Extremes
By ELMER C. WALZER
NEW YORK (UPD - Tlli
industrial stock average set a new
record high during the past week
and all but scaled the 600 level
which has been something of a
goal for the bullish n'ement.
The average closed the week at
595.75 up 3.03 points on the week.
That was a record closing high.
The Friday intra-day high was
599.89. The intra-day high is an
average of the highs of Ihc 30
issues used to compile the aver
age. It is practically impossible
for all (he stocks to make their
high at the same time and hence
"In the last few seasons." says I such average never is touched
the youthful, dynamic designer.
women have been dragged
through as many fashion changes
as used to take 1.000 years. No
wonder they're all confused, be
fuddled and bewildered. Why, 1
know some women who haven't
bought a new dress for years.
"We re on the eve of another big
French fashion circus, and good
ness knows what they'll spring this
t'me. Bui here in the good old
U.S.A. we've already made and
sold our spring collections, and
they are clothes that are made

Having for all practical pur

a prospect the market may en

year when the market was in an
almost straight line rise.
Gains in the leading averages
were small on the week and also
small in the first 11 sessions, of
1959.
The railroad group had the best
advance percentagewise. The rail
average closed the week at 107 !7

:ilh Falls heightened when he spoke
of the "wonderltil" new scout
service center at Manzanita Street
and Dolores Avenue.
"That shows real interest and in
spiration," he said. "It is one of
the finest training centers for a
council like this of any place in
America.
The excellence ol your pro-

lection of a boy from this area to

Sharpe said, referring lo Edward

'This will undoubtedly be the

Sharpe turned to local scout
executive Jim Ilarpole to make an
other point in favor of Ihe Modoc

In Ihe past two years we have
recruited six persons out of this

This means that about 10 per cent
of the men we recruit throughout
Ihe entire five-state region come
from the local area.
"This speaks well for the ex-

After that, Sharpe was hardly

worker needing it a $50 advance
in wages, to be repaid beginning
in March.
The results of Ihc balloting an
unofficial tally were announced
by Herman Rebhan, UAW inter
national representative in Chicago.
In approving the contract, the
Harvester council spurned a rec
ommendation from its IB-man ne

Wednesday had accepted the Har

at what it termed premature talk
of a settlement by company offi
