STEADY TURNOVER

MORE INSURANCE GAINS Market leaders were prominent in trading on the Auckland Stock Exchange to-day, and prices remained very firm. There were further rises in insurances, New Zealands and South British each touching new record levels at £4 17/9 and £4 7/9 respectively, with buyers staying in at the sale prices. The easier trend in Bank of New Zealand shares was continued. Industrials, including Australians, presented a strong front generally, while the upward movement in Government issues was again noted.
