THE AUCKLAND EXCHANGE / STEADY IMPROVEMENT SHOWN f • - _. The steady improvement in share values from the low lavcls recorded in recent weeks was continued on the ■ Auckland Stock Exchange yesterday. In a satisfactory turnover, gains far outnumbered losses, and isolated falls wero merely' a natural [ reaction to previous sharp recoveries. Marked improvement was apparent in Government loans, and in sales of four separate issues rises were registered in each case. Recent strengthening in value# for banks in soveral transactions. was i confirmed Leading manrances were steady, with New Zealands wanted at lato rates. • Tlio classified industrials were quiet, hiit values generally were firmer.
