How will Indiana’s Auto Workers Fare

If Production Is Slashed 50 Per Cent? By ROGER BUDROW INDIANA HAS A BIG STAKE in a conference going

on in Washington today. The. talk is about automobiles.

Leon Henderson of the Office of Production Management ‘wants automobile production cut 50 per cent instead of just

20- per cent, as agreed upon previously. Leaders of the automobile labor unions in Indiana and heads of the factories, for the most part, are against such a drastic cut because they fear it will throw thousands of

workers out of their jobs.

. Governor Murray D. Van Wagoner of Michigan is leading the group which urges that the 50 per cent cut be modified. He realizes the curtailment is necessary but wants it spread over a period of months. The chief question seems to be: Will the automobile in-

Business improved in Indiana during June, but not half as much as the gain made during May, ac-: + cording to Indiana University’s Bureau of Business Research. Defense production increased, but shortages and delays in raw material supplies kept non-defense industries from expanding as much as possible.

STOCK MARKET |

IS IRREGULAR

Railroad, Sugar Issues Rise; Trading Lags Behind. Yesterday’s Pace.

NEW YORK, July 23 (U. P).— Railroad, sugar and special issues were stronger on the stock market today while the general industrial list ‘lagged. ‘Trading contracted sharply from yesterday's million-

‘Ishare pace.

As the market turned #nto the fourth hour, steels were irregular, motors easier and oils firm. Demand for sugars paralleled a rise in sugar futures. This was induced in turn by uncertainty over the Japanese situation, which also brought a sharp rise in silk and a break in Japanese bonds. The stock market continued dominated by technical factors and paid little attention to war developments. Profit-taking went ahead in some issues while selective buying boosted prices elsewhere. Numerous special stocks moved higher, some to new highs for the year.

Giant Pipeline Seems Assured

WASHINGTON, July 28 U.P), —Defense officials foday expected nine major companies to co-operate in the construction of a $70,000,000 pipeline that will deliver 250,000 ‘| barrels of ¢rude oil daily from Texas fields to the East Coast where a shortage threatens. Defense Oil Co-ordinator. Harold L. Ickes recommended construction of the line yesterday immediately after Congress had enacted legislation authorizing the Government) either to assist ;private companies or undertake the project itself, The Socony-Vacuum Oil Co, Cities Service Co., Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey, Atlantic Refining Co., Tide Water Associated Oil Co., Shell Oil .Co., Gulf Oil Co., Texas Oil Co., and the Consolidated Oil Co. are expected to join in the creation of a subsidiary to build and maintain the line. Mr. Ickes promised: to. ask priorities for the materials needed for the line. -A minimum of eight months will be required for comple-| tion of the line. Meanwhile, the co-ordinator will

Rouge and Ypsilanti, Mich, will need at least 75,000. Mr. Henderson’s proposal would educe new-car output to only 2,400,000 units during the new model year beginning Aug. 1. If would result in enormous savings |: of. aluminum, steel, nickel steel, zine, and tungsten. Indiana is becoming more of .an automobile manufacturing - state every year. During June there #were more than 45,000 persons working in the transportation equipment industry in Indiana, the great majority in automobile factories themselves, according to the Indiana Employment Security Division. This meant a payroll of nearly two million dollars. General Motors has big plants at Indianapolis, Anderson, Muncie; Studebaker and Bendix are ‘partly

responsible for South Bend’s cur-|goo

rent prosperity; Briggs Body-has a factory in Evansville; International Harvester has big factories in Indianapolis and Ft. Wayne. There are others, scores of them, who

make parts for the auto firms. The}

decision . reached in Washington is bound to affect thousands -of Indiana workmen. ” 8 4

The crop is tasseling in northern counties, is largely tasseling and silking through the central section and about 40 per cent of the corn in the southwest is in or is approaching the railk stage. 9 Oats harvesting is nearly finished in the north, is of fair te good quality and above normal yield. Wheat reports show good grain and yields above average in almost all of the state. Tomatoes show good setting of fruit and are beginning to ripep in southern counties. In localities soy beans are too rank for best expectation as to hay and seed, the Bureau said. During ‘the week about one-half inch of rain fell in the northern half of the state but was below

. normal in most southern counties.

TERRE HAUTE GOAL AGENCIES LIMITED,

WASHINGTON, July 23 (U. P). —The Bituminous Coal Division announced today that it is setting up machinery to establish maximum prices for coal sold by regional marketing agencies when such action is necessary in the public interest. A regional marketing agency is a co-operative selling agency formed by soft coal producers and empowered to fix market prices for competitive coals. It is immune from anti-trust laws so long as its activities do not violate BCD orders. Authority to fix maximum prices to protect consumers has been incorporated in orders granting provisional approval to three new marketing agencies in Terre Haute, Ind. Maximum prices could be invoked by the director of the division when the BCD finds that any: member of the marketing agency is restricting the supply of coal in interstate commerce or charging yadaly high prices.

Examples Cited

Studies by the Retailers Advisory | Committee show that Governmens iin and the successful drives of groups are undermining ewe OPACS is attempting to do. The committee cites the following actions as contributing to higher prices: The successful campaign of farm interests for near-parity loans, and the support given farm the Surplus Marketing on. Industrial wage incréases and an expanded demand for goods resulte ing from increased employment. Development of a sellers’ market, To these factors officials of the retail group today added a fourth on the basis of new reports: Cone sumer-goods speculation and hoarde ing in some lines, such as sugar.

Sugar Hoarding Again

The uselessness of some of this consumer speculation was cited in relation to sugar. There are now 1,800,000 mere tons of sugar in the world than ever before, and this country has its share of the surplus. Sugar quotas have been relaxed several times recently. But sugar buying is increasing, apparently because people remember 1917-18 sugar rationing. One dealer - ported to the committee that an ordinary two-month supply was sold recently in one week. The support of butter and egg prices by the Surplus Marketing Ad« ministration, and the cotton-loans policy of the Commodity Credit Corp. were cited as tending to nullify OPACS price-control efforts, The committee also pointed ous that many industrial disputes had been settled by the National Dee fense Mediation Board on the basis of increased wages. participation in stabilizing yard wages at higher levels also was cited,
