LOUIS POST- DISPATCH 8A June 12, 1948 STEELS, OILS, RAILS LEADERS IN WEEK Industry this YORK, week June 12 resumed (UP)- its activity after a brief lull and the stock market broke out of its trading range on the upside with volume rising. The week in stocks started in the doldrums. Monday fell the -share and were the smallest March 29. On Tuesday, the trading increased and the industrial average carried into new high ground since Aug. 1946.

On Wednesday the list made small gains and on Thursday the rails led the upturn. Strength in the carriers pleased the chart experts who had a held that this group must confirm the rise in the industrial group before a real resumption of the rise took place. Steels, Oils Features. Steels and oils featured the industrial section. Motors got a lift when the industry resumed its operations on a large scale.

Coppers fell early in the week and then snapped back. The rise in the rails carried some if the leaders up two points or more. Meantime, the utilities, considered behind the market, fell into line on trading. Their average also new high active, since 1946 and finally the general average pushed through to its best in nearly two years. There was nothing in the news to bring the upswing on Tuesday.

Market experts said the was technical and accomplished without benefit of special developments. Traders had been awaiting a reaction downward which would have permitted their purchasing stocks at lower prices. Instead the market had moved in a narrow trading range, trying the patience of the would-be purchasers until they finally abandoned hope of a recession and turned to the constructive side of the market on a larger scale. Stock Dividend Helps. Industrial developments helped the market along once the rise got under way.

Earnings reports continued favorable and several companies made favorable dividend declarations. The announcement of spending for military aircraft helped the aircraft stock a bit but the really big gainer traced its demand to the action of directors in ordering a stock dividend. That issueGrumman aircraft-was particularly strong Thursday and Fridagutlook for continuation of high earnings sustained strength in the oil shares which were wide gainers on the week.

Feature of the hog trade this week r.as the continued run of heavy butcher hogs in much larger numbers than normal for this time of year.

Sow receipts increased, this class now forming around 7 to 9 per cent of total offerings. Lightweight hogs closed steady, heavier types 50 cents to $1 higher. Despite a downtrend at the week's close, cattle prices ended with good advances over last weekend. Top price for steers during the week was $38. an alltime record for June.

The week's general steer average made a new all-time high for any month at $34.32. A record average was rung up despite the fact that choice steers are not selling as high as early in the year. This was because of the strength of medium grade offerings. Livestock men said grass and short fed cattle have never sold so close to choice offerings as they are now. Although receipts in the sheep section were much larger this week, demand also jumped sharply.

As a result slaughter lambs closed the week $1.50 to $2 higher. Bank Dividend of 50 Cents. State Bank Trust Co. of Wellston declared a dividend of 50 cents a share, payable June 15. FLUID MILK SALES FOR MAY DOWN 7.49 PCT.

FROM 1947 A total 25,654,010 pounds of fluid milk was sold by St. Louis handlers in May, Fred L. Shipley, administrator, announced today. This is a decrease of 3.49 per cent from the previous month's sales and 7.49 per cent less than was sold in May 1947. Production was up last month, 36,941,305 pounds of milk being delivered to the St.

Louis market. This represented an increase of 12.01 per cent more than was produced in April this year, but 2.83 per cent less than was delivered in May 1947. The dairies imported only 2062 pounds of milk, cream and skim milk from the Chicago production area in May this year, as compared with 821,117 17 pounds imported in May 1947. average price of $4.79 per hundredweight was paid producers last month. This was a decrease of 1 cent per hundredweight under April, but $1.13 more than was paid to producers in May 1947.

The gross value of production on a 3.5 per cent butterfat basis amounted to $1,769,046, the largest amount of money ever paid by St. Louis handlers for milk within a single delivery period, Shipley reported. ITU HEAD REFUSES TO SUBMIT CHICAGO OFFER TO PRINTERS CHICAGO, June 12 (AP)-Woodruff Randolph, president of the AFL International Typographical Union, declined formally yesterday to submit a management contract offer to striking printers of five Chicago daily newspapers. However, the door was left open for possible settlement of the dispute. Randolph met with management representatives for more than an hour.

He declined to comment after the meeting. A management spokesman said the union chief indicated he would request another conference next week. John F. O'Keefe, secretary of the Chicago Publishers' Associathe publishers' proposal tion, said Randolph, "insisted that tains clauses which are not in conformity with ITU law and policy, and that no contract proposal can, under ITU law, be submitted to a vote of the membership unless it conforms to that law." Canadian Jet Plane Crashes. OTTAWA, June 12 (UP) A Royal Canadian Air Force Vampire jet plane crashed near the Rockcliffe airport here yesterday killing the pilot.

DRY CORN BELTS GET RAIN; PRICES DROP 4C CHICAGO, June 12 (AP)-Corn tumbled almost as much as 5 cents at times today as the grain trade received reports of widespread rains over eastern Nebraska, all of Iowa and northern Illinois. Oats also weakened and wheat was marked down slightly. The rains were considered highly beneficial for corn, in which there had been much speculative buying recently on continued dry weather in the corn belt. Parts of Iowa had not received good moisture since May 1. The near-by delivery was down with the new crop corn contracts.

This was based on a feeling farmers would be more willing ship corn to market in view of improved crop prospects. Cash dealers reported bookings of grain on a to-arrive basis in excess of 100,000 bushels. Wheat closed lower, corn was to 4 cents lower, oats were lower, and soybeans were lower to 1 cent higher. Rains apparently were over almost the entire state of Iowa, according to private reports to local houses. Moisture ranged up LO more than one inch at some places.

Eastern Nebraska, also a good corn producing territory, received moisture. In addition, the Weather Bureau predicted showers for northwest Illinois and Indiana this morning spreading into the central and northeast portions this afternoon and night. Scattered showers and thundershowers also were forecast for Iowa, although this state apparently had received its heaviest moisture. Everything considered, the rains brought a great change in the outlook for both corn and oats, traders said. Some parts of Iowa had not received moisture since May 1.

Rains were badly needed for oats in parts of this state, grain men said. Wheat did not show much of a loss despite the weakness in corn. The bread cereal is selling around the Government loan price and traders said there was very little incentive to sell the grain at this time. Considerable attention was focused on July oats. Open interest in this contract totals around 19,000,000 bushels, more than in either July wheat or corn.

Cash oats were selling nearly 30 cents higher than the July future. Stocks bushel of a cash oats here are small. Cash Corn Lower. Cash MERCHANTS' EXCHANGE. June 12- grain market Saturday: Corn receipts 12 cars, 4.

CAA AID NAMES REQUISITES TO DEVELOP PRIVATE FLYING The chief needs of the aviation industry if private flying is to be developed to its full extent are a plane which will land at 30 miles an hour or less, and construction of an adequate system of airports, Ben Stern, assistant administrator for aviation information of the Civil Aeronautics Administration, said here today. Stern spoke at graduation ceremonies of Parks College of Aeronautical Technology at East St. Louis.

industry must make an intensive effort to develop planes which Will make short, easy, quiet, slow-speed take-offs and landings, said, in order to avoid protests over operation of landing strips in congested or residential areas. Cross-wind landing gears which have been developed under CAA contracts, he continued, should reduce the amount of land needed for such strips. Planes must eventually be able to clear 26 to 50-foot obstacles after a take-off run of 250 or 300 feet, and land under similar circ*mstances, he said. Stern also discussed safety regulations and organization of the CAA. HEADS STATE C.P.A.
