New YorU, Juno 21.
Bullish conditions prevailed In the stock market from the opening
today, indicating the influence qf the pood war news and of the easier
money conditions. The steel Industrials were especially affected by con
tinued reports about the possibility that the war Industries board would
permit higher prices for finished steel product and make allowances for
tax exemption to n liberal extent.
Statements to this effect caused vigorous buying of many of the
steel stocks, with United States Steel common holding the leadership and
advancing ? to 1074, the highest point touched since It sold ex dividend
til the end of May.
Several other steel Industrials made gains ranging from 1 to 2 points,
and advances of 2 to 3 points were made In a number of specialties.
Low-priced railroad stocks became prominent, with "Wabash issues
attracting most attention, the common moving up l'l to 10 and the
preferred 1 to 43j.
There was continued accumulation of the Pittsburgh and West
Virginia Issues, both the common and preferred stocks making further
advances and ngaln lifting the high record for those Issues.
United Cigar Stores were the most prominent of the specialties, mov
ing up from 99i to 1018. American Ice was another strong feature,
advancing 3 to 33T$, and similar gains were made in a large number of
other Issues.
There were some exceptions to the bullish trndencv, Brooklyn Rapid
Transit falling 1 point to 38. with the increased charges resulting from
tho higher Interest rate on the notes maturing July 15 virtually, leaving
that stock without hope of dividend resumption.

Vctc Plan to Help Next Liberty Loan
A new, plan to' provide savings funds In advance for the aid of the Gov
ernment's fourth Liberty Loan, which will, In all probability be sold In
October or November, has been announced by the Commercial Trust Com
pany in connection with Its offering ot the new issue of 1 per cent certifi
cates ot Indebtedness. This banking Institution has given notice that on
funds set aside frotf time to time to bo used in' tho purchaso of tho fourth
Liberty L6an it will pay a special rate of Interest, thereby urging upon the
public the importance of advance preparations for helping to win the war
through buying trie n6w war-bonds. t
E. r. 'Passmore, Governor of tho Federal Reserve Bank ot Philadelphia,
in commenting on the plan, said ho thought it an excellent one, and, that,
while It had not been discussed by the .district's Liberty Loan committee, ho
thought It might be used generally with much benefit to future sales ot the
