BrsiNES» HOLDS RECORD AS BORROWING MOVES UF Midwest business is still moving up from record levels set earlier this year, but the margin of gain is narrowing. The Federal Reset ve Bank of Chicago reports in its monthly review, Business Conditions, that many plants are now producing about as much as their present capacity and labor force will allow. Some firms are not working it full capacity because their ability to produce has outstripped consumers' present willingness t.» buy. TV and appliance output, for example, has been cut back to keep production in line with curlent consumer demand. Steei company orders, on the otner hand, are enough to keep st'el output at full capacity through September at least. Behind much of the current ride of good business, the bank reports, is the continuing expansion of credit. Consumers have been relying more and more upon borrowing to purchase durable goods, while businessmen have been active in seeking funds to boost production, build inventories and extend trade credit.
