(P) Another surge of demand for railway stocks gave the entire market a lift today.

Yesterday railroad group, as measured by the associated press average of 15 issues, climbed 10 the highest level since 1931. Today leading issues moved up as much as or so a share. Airline shares also enjoyed a flurry of favor but their behavior was tepid in comparison with the rails. The balance of the market edged ahead somewhat haltingly, with gains running to a top of around $1 a share. The sharp interest shown in the carriers lifted sales volume to a rate of around 1,200,000 shares, since Saturday trading was rehighest for any two hour session sumed after the usual summer recess.

Rail stocks have made a powerful showing off and on for some weeks. Demand has been whetted by a combination of mounting income derived from a steady inverse in the movement of merchandise and people, improved operating efficiency, and favored treatment under proposed legislation for an excess profits tax law. Rail traffic is expected to expand even more as defense program gets rolling. Among the gainers were Santa Fe, N. Y.

Central, Pennsylvania, Illinois Central, Atlantic Coast Line, Northern Pacific, Southern Railway, Nickel Plate, American Airlines, United Air Lines, Trans Republic Steel, Sears Roebuck, J. I. Case, Union Carbide, Americana U. Woolen, S. Gypsum.

Standard Oil Chrysler, a late starter, tacked on $1 a share at one time.
