New Haven Leads Rally After Low Prices On Stock Market
The market opened with a rally led by railroads but soon turned weak as Polish armistice news spurred selling. Prices fell to new lows for the year, money rates dropped to 7 and then 6 percent, and a sharp late rally supported by U S Steel and Mexican Petroleum helped many issues end with gains. Southern Pacific and New Haven led a strong buying push, while steel and other war stocks largely resisted the downturn. Sales totaled about 11.65 million par value.
