New York, May 3.
A further extension of yesterday's gains was witnessed on the Stock Exchange today in a session of active trading. The market opened steady and later, on an influx of buying orders, prices moved up along a broad front, with sentiment bolstered by good domestic and foreign news, the steadiness of London cables and continued good earnings reports. Steels, motors and aviations were amongst the best performers, whilst utilities also gave a good account of themselves. Today's volume was the best seen for some weeks, amounting to 740,000 shares.—Reuter.
