The AP composite and S&P also slipped, while bonds rose and Treasuries stayed steady.

Market Signals From A Turbulent Trading Day
Traders watched a broad market session with mixed results as blue chip issues such as Packard and Texaco showed activity while rail, steel, and cotton-related names moved in thin volume. The report highlights closing levels, price shifts, and notable gains by several corporate issues amid overall volatility.
Wool Market Prices Decline Amid Trading Slowdown
Amid a sparse New York wool market, certificated sales were largely muted as brokers reported subdued bidding and uncertain demand. Several named firms and insurers appear in the scattered listings, including Republic National Life and Southwestern Mortgage, while energy and rail-related names surface in unrelated notes.
