Redistilled 6.10. (USDA) A to PRICES DRIFT LOWER Aircraft Issues Climb Despite Lag In Other Fields NEW YORK, July 31 (AP)Stock prices drifted gently lower today in one of the slowest markets in weeks. Despite the downward trend in almost every category of stock, issues of aircraft manufacturers advanced with a rush, gains in this group reaching as high, at a share. The demand aircrafts reflected the news that the U. S.

air force had authorized 14 makers to start work on roughly triple the amount of orders that congress has made appropriation for to date. Business was extremely slow and the ticker tape frequently idled. Rails, oils and distillers frequently were lower a group, with steels, motors, utilities, chemicals and copper mining stocks fluctuating in a thoroughly scrambled pattern. In addition to aircrafts, only metal mining stocks showed general improvement. Higher prices were paid at times for U.

S. Steel, General Motors, Goodyear, Homestake Mining, American Woolen, United Air Lines and International Nickel. Trimmed a bit were Youngstown Sheet, Chrysler, U. S. Rubber, American Smelting, Union Carbide, American Tobacco, Southern Pacific, Philip Morris and Gulf Oil.

Aircrafts making a strong showing were headed by Douglas, which jumped points higher before the advance was reduced trifle. Others up a point or more times included Boeing, United Aircraft, Lockheed, Bell and Republic. Higher in the curb were Cessna Aircraft, Fairchild Engine Aircraft, Northrop Aircraft and Piper Aircraft. Marked down were Chesebrough, Cities Service and Southland Royalty. Missouri Pacific bonds came in for big gains in the corporate loan market the news a federal court had approved its reorganization plan.

Other rails were mixed. U. S. treasury bonds generally held steady at" Friday's closing prices. There was little selling pressure behind any group of stocks and the chief influence on the market appeared to be a "wait-and-see" attitude of many traders.
