STOCKS AND SHARES

/ ' JHE AUCKLAND EXCHANGE IMPROVEMENT IN G. J. COLES Irregularity again prevailed in the investment 'market 011 tho Auckland Stock Exchange on Saturday, when the usual small amount of business was transacted. Government loans ami local body debentures again met with solid support. Dominion Investments and AVestportStocktons werp two issues in tho classified groups which made progress. Banks wero poorly sought. Among industrials, G. J. Coles recovered somo of tho ground lost on the previous day. Farmers' Trading were marked down in dealing, and Consolidated Bricks also weakened. Levels for Colonial Sugars again firmed. /
