General Motors leads stock gains as market steadies
In a day of dull volume traders noted a firm tone with General Motors rising about six points and steel shares showing activity. Western Union hit a new yearly low as market breadth remained uneven, while rails and industrials showed small gains. Bonds edged higher on war news with Liberty issues up as foreign bonds reflected improved conditions.

California Tourism Hit By Absence Of Tourists
Spain plans to advance a large credit to stabilize the dollar and fund supplies for U S forces in France as markets signal higher prices. California suffering from fewer travelers and an orange crop failure is blamed for weak subscriptions and lower health resort activity amid a broader war economy. U S Steel remains active with expectations of a 10 point rise and high monthly earnings, while tax changes threaten revenue and favor large corporations over small firms.

Dry Iowa Missouri crop woes boost corn in Chicago trading
Excessively dry weather in parts of Iowa and Missouri lifted corn prices as buyers remained nervous. August futures rose to 157¾ and September to 159, with oats gaining on corn strength. Provisions held, hogs advanced, and rail car shortages limited supplies amid favorable USDA crop deterioration notes and wary traders.
