New York May 31 Developments over the holiday show that fears of a weak business setup were excessive. Federal Reserve data indicate April sales were below normal but 17 percent above the prior year, with Gary rail mills booked for a year, signaling ample steel demand. Industrials gained early strength with Mack trucks Stewart-Warner and General Electric reaching new highs. California Pete and American Smelting also advanced amid favorable labor news and dividend expectations. Baldwin hit a new high after Vauclain cited $55 million in orders in five months versus $20 million last year. Afternoon trade cooled but morning gains held, leaving a market marked by strong spots rather than broad selling.
