YORK,~—(#)—The do-and dare spirit was lacking in today’s stock market proceedings and leading issues were inclined to drift down-stream. i Dullness ruled throughout the major part of the session as most traders viewed the speéculative scene with more than the usual rraution. Technicians felt that possible Washington developments were causing sofné nervousness, Further improvement in business and industry apparently was hav ing little influence. Commodities furnished no incen tive to equities. Wheat and corn were off a cent or so a bushel and cotton lagged. U. S. gov ernment securities and prime in vestment bonds, however, contin ued to push ahead under expand ed investment buying. The dol lar was a bit firmer against lead ing gold curreneies, Shares of Coca-cola jumped about 5 points and Century Rib bon came to life for an advance of 1, both to new peaks for the past year or so.

He contends that the federal al ! cohol administration under pres-i ;“ent regulations would not permit | the distilling of whiskey in Geor- | |gia, even if the state votes.repeall { because stills had to be in opera- | ltion on a date now past to be| recognized. i | Certain Coffee county whiskey | makers attempted to get federal | recognition but failed since the state is legally dry, Williams ex ’Nained.
