Industrial Output Near 1957 Record ‘ Estimate Is Given By Commerce Dept. WASHINGTON (UPD — Despite the recession, th# nation’s Industrial production in 1958 is expected to fall only sightly below last year’s record high. The Commerce Department estimated Sunday that total U.S. production of goods and services will be 437 billion dollars by the end of the year, compared with the 1957 output of 440 billion dollars. With adjustments made to compensate for higher prices in 1958, the drop would amount to 3 per cent — lesa than had been anticipated in view of the economic slump this year. The government report came as Rep. Henry S. Reuss (D-Wis.) called on Congress to set up an advisory council to hold hearings on proposed price and wage hikes in major industries. Reuss also announced that he would introduce a bill to require greater ' consultation on economic policy matters between the President and the semi-independent Federal Reserve Board. He said the President "shrugs off a large part of his economic responsibility” by learing the attack on inflation primarily to the Reserve Board. His statement added that measures taken by the board to curb inflation have proved largely ineffective.
