Odors for a number of 4 per cent (Jovernmcnt loans were lifted and trading took place in 1940 and 19-19 stock at improved levels. The former was placed at £IOO 10s, which is only 10a lower than the cum interest price earlier in the month, while the latter was done 5s higher at £IOO 15s. A de"clinc of 7s Od took place in the 1955's in two transactions at par. Tho demand was also keener for local body loans and commercial debentures and some supplies were secured at firmer levels. Holders of bank shares were very strong, in spite of increased offers by buyers. Con? B mercials of Australia sold 2d dearer at 16s 4d. Commercials of Sydney v.« ;o done Is lower at £l6 19s, and New Zealands were released 2d cheaper at 48s lOd, but all banks with headquarters in England were in firmer request.
