(By John L. Cooley, Associated

has Financial Writer)

NEW YORK, Aug. 15—-The stock market gave another slow and list- less performance today with the ticker generally droning out price changes of fractional unimport- ance.

In the Chicago Grain Market, too, trading was inert, and quota- tions unchanged, obviously await- ing the lifting of price restrictions scheduled for tomorrow. Cotton sold off at the close, while the dol- lar was firm in foreign exchange dealings. Bonds were irregular and commodities generally steady.

Apparently dominated by the grain situation, most stocks at- tracted only meager professional followings. The tumover was only 907,300 shares and the Associated Press-Standard Statistics average for 90 selected stocks gained one- tenth of a point.

Even a stronger U. S. dollar- attributcd partly to the normal seasonal demand to cover fall com- mercial transactions and to a les- sening of inflationary psychology- created no more‘ than a. ripple of interest in the financial commun- lty.

At Winnipeg wheat was "pegged" for the first time this year. and prices recovered for nct gains of 1% to 116 cents a bushel. Wash- ington dispatches were followed closely in Wall Street for a pos- sible clue as to future policies with respect to commodities or the dol- lar, but the budget of news seem-

ingly contained no convincing‘ stimulant. _ Corporation reports, 0n the

whole, continued to emphasize the beneficial effects of the extraor- dinary spuri; which general busi- ness enjoyed in the second quar- ter of this year.

While still operating at a deficit, the American Locomotive Com- pany-in its six months‘ rcport— showed that it had improved its position substantially over a. year ago. Moreover, unfilled orders as of June 30, 1933, were more than double the amount on the cor- responding date a year ago.

‘In ‘the share market, gains of fractions to around a point were retained by Allied Chemical, Am- erican Tobacco, Auburn, Mack Truck, Dupont, U. S. Gypsum, United Fruit and Union Carbide. American Locomotive and many others were unchanged. Chesa- peake Corporation, International Harvester, Goodyear, Endicott Johnson Preferred. Western Union, United Aircraft. Union Bag Ar. Paper and Associated Oil were off moderately.

made to the strong position en- joyed by the Canadian banks. Dealing with the mineral resources of Canada, the speaker sisiccl that in Trail, B.C., the output of zinc, copper and lead had considerably increased and there had also been a very satisfactory increase in prices. The apple business in Brit- ish Columbia had improved as a re- sult of the British preference. The United Kingdom is prepared to take s. greatly increased quantity of barley, wheat and other grains has also advanced. Although U"! western wheat crop will fall short of the first estimates, nevertheless the increased price will offset the shortage. In the prairies more mix- ed farming is being carried on and there has been a marked increase .in the production of butter. The fact that a. reduced amount is be- 111g spent for direct relicf was a sign of economic improvement. There was a growing demand for steel throughout the Dominion.

Three-cornered fights loomed in six ridings, the big parties having one Labor, two Co- operative Commonwealth Feder- ation and two United Front candid- ates to add to their worries. Premier Gordon S.
