The fact that there was little offering of stocks was en- couraging in another negative sort lof way while the improvement in i the wheat market undoubtedly re- i lieved some of the uneasiness which has been apparent regarding all mar- ket operations lately. Both Nickel and Noranda started right .up from the opening, Noranda fl advanced two points and Nickel 1 {1-2 points to its highest for the mor- ning around the noon-hour Sales in both stocks were the heaviest in | some time. i Oils did little one way or the other.

The sen- sitivity of the list is shown in the certed .buying effort, no matter how important this would have been under ordinary conditions.

The stock stood at $41.60 for a gain of $2.35 at noon. Interantional Nickel was also in demand and sold up $1.60 to $39.
