Stock market swings and steady rails amid mixed opening
New York stocks opened irregularly with active trading and small gains or losses. Utilities held steady while rails sagged, with U S Steel Columbian Carbon Standard Oil of New Jersey and American Telephone showing gains. New Haven moved 5000 shares at off a point. Union Pacific fell 2 and Santa Fe 1. An RFC loan lapse for New Haven tempered optimism as steel demand and auto expansion lagged, while power output retreated slightly from a peak but remained well above 1934 levels.
