STOCKS MARK TIME IN NARROW TRADING; Week Ends With Averages Off -- Bonds Mixed -- Wheat Down; Cotton Irregular
Trading was virtually at a standstill yesterday on the New York Stock Exchange, but values were firm slightly above the low marks reached in the precipitous drop in the early days of last week. The volume of trading was 174,640 shares, almost 100,000 less than the preceding Saturday's turnover of 271,980 shares and the second dullest two-hour session of the year.
