Production, Services Take
Another Gigantic Stride;
Stock Market Goes Higher
By WALTER BREED! JR. I
AP Business Newt Writer
NEW YORK (AP) Business
took another giant step along the
comeback trail last week.
Tolal production of goods and
services roared along at an an-;
nual clip of better than 440 billion :
dollars. Government economists;
said it should hit a record 450 bil-,
lions by year-end.
The previous high reached
last summer before the recession :
made itself felt was 44.Vi tail-,
lions.
Stepped up production of steel,1
copper, aluminum, zinc and lead
contributed mightily to the econ-:
omy's forward surge last week. So
did consumer buying.
The quicucned economic tempo
gave the railroads a lift freight:
carloadings touched a new 158
high for the fifth straight week.
On the national economic level
the fast pace of recovery showed
up vividly in a brand new batch
of government statistics:
Heavy Gains Record
1. Personal income of Ameri-;
cans climbed in September to a
record annual rate of 357 1 -j billion
dollars (adjusted for seasonal var-j
iations). That's a gain of 11 bil
lions since February'! recession I
low. I
2. Output of U. S. mines and
factories climbed to 137 per cent I
of the 1947-49 average at a lime
i September) when Detroit was up
to its neck in labor strife and I
model changeover and auto pro
duction had slowed to a crawl.
3. Private housing starts in Sep
tember soared to a seasonally ad
justed annual rate of 1.220,000
foundations poured highest
since October 1!55.
Confidence ruled this week from
main street to Wall Street and
dispelled much of the gloom that
had shrouded Automobile Row.
It was very much in evidence,
too, at the annual Hot Springs,
Va., meeting of President Eisen
hower's Business Advisory Coun
cil, a group comprising the big
gest names in U. S. industry,
trade and finance. Consensus of
the corporate elite: 1 lie recovery
will continue to gain momentum
if the new 1959 cars catch on.
The stock market thundered to a
series of new record highs in the
heaviest trading in years. Bulls
took a sharp hike in margin re
quirements (from 70 to 90 per
cent) in stride.
Stock sales in the latest week
totaled 24.402,570 shares compared
to 19,104.940 shares in the previ
ous week and 13.157,631 In the
same week last year.

$24,148,600 in the corresponding
1957 week.
Retail Sales Soar
Business in the nation's retail
storet puked up briskly. Dollar
volume of retail trade as meas
ured by Dun & Bradstreet showed
gains ranging from 4 to 8 per
cent over a year ago.
A new note of prosperity was in
jected by General .Motors this
week.
After a lapse of one year, the
big auto maker revived its glit
tering Motorama A three-mil.
lion-dollar extra vagan.a featuring
Broadway showgirls, G.M's dream
cars of the future, and the new
Cadillacs, Buicks, Oldsmobiles,
Pontiacs and Chevrolets for 1959.
There was a good chance that
many of the 7.900,000 Americans
who bought new cars in 1955
would be ready to buy again now.
GM dealers had one big com
laint a shortage of cars. With
local labor issues still pnresolved,
G.M's 124 V. S. auto plantt have
been shut down since Oct. 2.
Boeing Excess
Profits Hearing
Opens In Seattle
SEATTLE (API A hearing on
a 10-million-dollar renegotiation
suit involving excess profits for
Boeing Airplane Ce. opened here
Monday.
It is the first .jf a series of suits
in which makers of military air
craft seek reduction of govern
ment claims of excess profits.
The government's Renegotiating
Board held Boeing made 10 million
too much on military contracts in
1952. The company refunded that
amount but now contends the
board erred.
Boeing has two other cases
pending, involving a profits deter
mination of 7'-j million in 1953 and
10 million in 1954.
Judge Graydoti G. Withey,
Washington, D. C, a member of
Ihe United States Tax Court, will
conduct this hearing on the 1952
case only.
If it wins the suit. Boeing would
recover less than three million dol
lars after federal excise taxes, a
company attorney said.
Similar suitt have been filed by
other airplane manufacturers.
They total 90 million dollars a
government attorney taid.

Sec. Dulles Terms
Renewed Shelling
Of Quemoy Tragedy
E1KLSON' AIR FORCE BASE,
Alaska (AP) Secretary of State;
Dulles taid today that it was a
tragedy that the Chinese Com-;
munists have again displayed
their "warlike disposition."
Dulles made the statement while;
aw aiting refueling of hit jet tanker j
which is taking him to Formosa.
The secretary told a newsman!
he had just talked to President;
Eisenhower in Denver and was in-1
formed of the Chinese Reds' re-j
sumption of firing in the Formosa
Strait area. i
"I had embarked upon what I
believed and hoped was a mission;
I of peace," Dulles said. "I shall
persist in that purpose." j
Duties said both President Ei-i
senhower and President Chiang'
nai-sncK nad inougnt it useful lur
him to go to Formosa for consulta
tions when the Communists an
nounced the cease-fire would be
extended at least two more weeks.
"It is obvious that if the Com
munists resume their fighting to
achieve their political goals, our
consultations cannot have the
same scope and character that
would have been possible if there
were a cease-fire.
"Nevertheless. 1 believe that
consultations can usefully be
held," Dulles asserted.
Dulles and his party left this
Alaska Air Command base 26
miles south of Fairbanks for the
nonstop flight across the Pacific
to Formosa. The flight was ex
pected to take about 11 hours.
Australian Wool Selling
i At 'j Of Boom Years
i SYDNEY (AP) - Australian
; greasy wool is selling at around
1 46 Australian pence (43 cents) a
1 pound, the lowest Drice in a dec-
ade.
i The price at the wool auction
: sales is less than one-third of the
i average in the boom year 1950-51.
! It should mean cheaper woolen
, clothes, but with greater use of
I synthetics, wool is a smaller factor
j in winter clothing costs.
I Although wool is the greatest
j source of Australia's overseas in-
come the dramatic price fall of
the past year has had little visible
I effect.
i The national council of wool
I selling brokers reported the Sep
! tember average for greasy wool
was 46:49 pence a pound (:43.36
cents). This was much the same
as the average for April, May and
June and wav down on the price
of 72.90 ( 66 cents) for September
a year ago.
In recent months Japan has
been chief buyer.

Anti-Marxist
Book May Win
Writer's Prize
STOCKHOLM (AP). An anti
Marxist book by a Soviet writer,
banned in Kussia "for lack of lit
erary value," may be rewarded
with this year's Nobel prize for
literature.
The writer who is reported to
top the 1958 list of literary Nobel
prize candidates is 68-year-old
Boris Pasternak, who ttiU lives in
Kussia
The book is "Doctor Zhivago," a
novel about a wealthy Russian doc
tor and his trials through this cen
tury's wars and revolutions.
The 18 members of the Swedish
Academy of Letters are to pick
the winner of this year's $41,420
literary' prize next Thursday.
The theme of Dr. Zhivago" is
freedom, or rather the lack of it
in the Soviet Union, and what this
has done to 200 million people.
To get the manuscript printed
Pasternak had to give it to a
friend who smuggled it out of Rus
sia. The book first appeared in
Italian in Italy last year, and ever
since the Russians have tried to
interfere with its publication else
where. Scandinavian publishing houses,
contemplating an editon of "Dr.
Zhivago" were warned by the
Russians not to publish the book
"since we have decided not to pub
lish it ourselves because it lacks
literary value."
One of these publishers said: "A
Nobel prize for Pasternak might
be too big a chunk for the Rus
sians to swallow."
The implication was that "Dr.
Zhivago" might place Soviet Pre
mier Khrushchev in a dilemma
simlar to that of Adolf Hitler with
regard to Nobel prizes. Hitler, in
1956, forbade all Germans to ac
cept Nobel awards after concen
tration camp prisoner Carl von
Ossietzky. a Jew. was awarded
the Nobel peace prize.

Manufacturers' Sales Tax
To Be His Recommendation
To Congress, Weeks States
HOT SPRINGS, Va. t - Secre
tary of Commerce Weeks will urge
the administration to include a
manufacturers' sales tax in its rec
ommendations to Congress in Jan
uary. Weeks told this to reporters
while meeting here with the nearly
100 top industrialists who make up
the Commerce Department't Busi
nest Advisory Council.
He said he was speaking strictly
for himself in advocating a broad,
uniform excise lax levied at the
factory.
The recession has made it clear,
Weeks said, that Ihe government
is overly dependent on the income
tax as its major source of reve
nue. Much of this year's prospec
tive 12 billion dollar deficit is
traceable to the impact of the re
cession on individual incomes.
"It continually disturbs me that
80 per cent of the government's
income comet from the income tax
in one form or other." he said.
"It is too vulnerable to the vicis
situdes of the ecunomy."
Would Speed Write-Off
Weeks taid he alio would urge
that business be permitted to write
off more rapidly, in depreciation
for tax purposes, its outlays for
new plant and equipment.
This would provide greater in-

Report Says Russ
Tank Driver Flown
Back From Britain
LONDON" (AP) A young Red
army tank driver who fled to the
West is believed to have been se
cretly flown back to the Soviet Un
ion from Britain.
The Soviet Embassy here as
sured the Foreign Office 22-year-old
Sgt. Anatoli Ponomarenko
went back voluntarily.
But Bussian emigre sources are
convinced he was kidnaped by Red
agents under the noses of Scotland
Yard men detailed to guard htm.
They believe he now has been ex
ecuted. Ponomarenko had 70 days of
freedom in Britain after quitting
his unit in East Germany and es
caping to West Berlin last Dec.
31. After his escape, his command
ing officer accused him of mur
dering a comrade and demanded
his return.
British authorities replied that
the soldier's pistol had not been
fired since it was made. He was
granted political asylum.
Helped Write Pamphlet
Shortly after coming lo London,
he helped write a pamphlet call
ing on other Soviet soldiers to de
sert. He spoke out on television
and addressed an anti-Communist
meeting.
Early in March he disappeared
from his hideout in northwest Lon
don, leaving behind all hit per
sonal belongings.
Officials of the National Alliance
of Russian Solidarists, an emigre
movement dedicated to overthrow
ing Russia's Communist regime,
told Scotland Yard that just he
fore Ponomarenko vanished, he
became friendly with a middle
aged Russian woman.
The sergeant never was seen
again. The Seviet Embassy told
the British Foreign Office he vis
ited the embassy and asked to re
turn to the Soviet Union. Friends
in the emigre organization said the
idea is preposterous, that he "was
clearly dedicated to our mission."
