Housing tops Wall Street stock scene says Elmer C. Walzer
United Press Financial Editor Elmer C. Walzer notes housing led last week's market gains. Demand for building equipment rose on forecasts of housing starts in 1958 though gains were modest and not until spring. Experts expect easier credit to aid new homes, with gypsum, plumbing, heating, glass, plywood, and electrical stock strength helping liquidity though not a broad market rally.
