The Dow Jones average. of 30 industrial stocks, up 3 points after the first hour, was down 5.07 at 983.29 by the close of the New York Stock Exchange. Losers outnumbered gainers by about an 8-7 margin among NYSElisted issues after trailing by as much as 3 to 2 in the early going.
Big Board volume came to 16.10 million shares, down from 16.93 million Friday. Brokers said the early gains reflected a carryover of buying from late Friday, when the Dow advanced 1.49 points. But support for the upswing dwindled as the hours ticked by toward a United Auto Workers strike deadline of midnight Tuesday in the union's contract negotiations with Ford Motor. The most recent reports from the contract talks said chances did not appear good for a settlement before the deadline. Ford Motor shares held steady Monday.
The NYSE's composite index of all its listed common stocks was down .16 at 55.70. The chief contributor to the Dow's decline was Eastman Kodak, which fell more than 2 points and established a new low for the year. Last week the company announced postponement of the introduction of a higher-priced instant camera, and Japan's Fuji Photo was reported to have gotten a possible competitive jump on Kodak with a color film usable without a flash under most conditions. On the America Stock Exchange, the market value index lost .39 to 102.64. The NASDAQ composite index for the over-the-counter market slipped .23 to 90.96.
Board of Trade CHICAGO (AP) Farm commodity futures fell over a broad front on the nation's major exchanges Monday, led by a limit decline of soybeans futures. Soybeans closed 20 cents a bushel lower for the day, while soybean meal was down $8 a ton and soy oil more than 50 points, or cent a pound. Both meal and oil had declined to allowable daily limits earlier in the day, then closed a shade higher. Wheat futures fell 13 cents a bushel and corn was down the final bell. Oats were down cents.
The major factor in liquidation of soybean and grain futures was the Agriculture Department crop report issued after last Friday's close. The department stated that, as of Sept. 1, it expected a corn crop of 5.892 billion bushels of soybeans and a record wheat crop of 2.139 billion bushels. The wheat figures were accepted by the trade and liquidation was the prime activity in the pit with few. buyers.
Oats appeared to move with corn, but trade also was very slow. SMART MOVE!

What it does is combine the advantages of heating water with LowWattage heating elements at a slower rate while offering big capacity to serve your family's needs. Meanwhile, you're saving with lower thermostat settings and tank insulation designed to keep water hotter, longer. How do you identify a Low- water heater? Ask your dealer to show you the models which qualify for the "LOW-WATTAGE WATER HEATER" label.
