Invasion of Ruhr Triggers Heavy Stock Selling
New York trading opened dull amid unsettled foreign tensions as reports of the Ruhr invasion by French troops spurred heavy speculative selling. Bulls briefly pushed select stocks higher, notably independents, oils, gas and motors, but gains faded by the close as traders awaited further abroad developments. Major leaders slipped with Baldwin near 132, Studebaker fell to 114, and Atlantic Refining surged to 160, closing up 10 at 143 amid volatile action and widespread losses across many issues.
