The market tone waa barely steady and
cautious. Buying interest was veiy limited
as dealers closely watched related markets.
Raw materials were usually readily avail
able and further processors were reluctant
to pats up bargains. Floor stocks were fully
adequate with most plants running full
schedules and building inventories.
