SOME PRICES REBOUND
Not All News Is Bad in
Country's Business Outlook
By SAM DAWSON
New York, July 14 VP) There's still a lot of bounce in our
economy. Today's news shows a number of things that have
dropped, In price and output, and are now .on the rebound. It's
t,iv a liltld bounce back so far, but it's pleasant reading.
Demand has picked up for copper and lead, two items that
droDDed fast and far sinces
March. And prices are firming
on the two important metals.
Wheat prices are firmer
pleasant news for farmers, un
less they happen to be the ones
whose crops were injured by
disease and bad weather in June.
It was this cut in the expected
supply that strengthened prices.
Rayon suits have been selling
well this summer and some man
ufacturers report they have
sold out their considerable sup
ply. Rayon prices have firmed.
American Radiator & Stand
ard Sanitary Corp. says it has
reached the low point in sales
and earnings, and looks for im
provements from now on, and
expects to reopen some of its
Idle plants before Christmas.
The Ansco division of General
Aniline & Film Corp. has put its
photographic paper plant back
on a six-day week. It had been
on a four-day schedule but de
mand from the photo finishing
dealers has Jumped and Ansco
as "found it necessary to in
crease our output."
Some woolen mills found de
mand for certain types of fab
rics used by the women's wear
trade so good that mills are
booked solid into September
and prices have gone up a lit
tle. The New England Purchasing
Agents association says 18 per
cent of its 108 reporting firms
found business better in June
than In May. In May only nine
per cent had found business bet-
Owners Abandon
Stranded Vessel
Los Angeles, July 14 VP) The
Greek Liberty freighter Ioannis
G. Kulukundis, hard aground
and breaking up on a sandbar
140 miles northwest of here
has been abandoned by her
owners to her cargo underwriters.
The 422-foot vessel, with 9000
tons of bulk and sacked wheat
aboard, has "broken her back'
under constant pounding of
waves and is leaking badly. She
struck the sandbar Sunday in a
heavy fog off point Arguello in
the "graveyard of the Pacific.
Her skipper, Capt. G. Mas-
trominas, three other officers
and one seaman remain aboard.
Vessels of her type are valued
at $500,000 and her cargo is
worth $630,000.
ter than in April.
These may be little things, but
they show how things that go
down can go back up as condi
tions straighten out.
The copper trade believes
fabricators' stocks declined last
month by at least 30,000 tons.
Some of these mills are taking
annual vacations this month, but
they are buying copper again
for delivery in August when
they expect to show a firm, if
modest, gain in output.
Scotch Dentist
Makes $100,000
Edinburg, Scotland, July 14
(IP) A Scottish dentist has made
25,000 ($100,000) for 11
months' work under Britain's
socialized medicine scheme.
This was disclosed by Sir Wil
liam Marshall, chairman of the
Lanark county health service
executive council, at a meeting
of the dental estimates board
yesterday.
Under the national health
service, dentists submit a bill to
the government for each patient
treated. The patient does not
have to pay for treatment.
The government pays the den
tist according to the number of
patients under his care and the
kind of treatment given.
Commenting on the case, Sir
William said: "It is hard to be
lieve that the patients received
the painstaking, careful atten
tion which we have a right to
expect in our service."
2 Killed as Train
Hits Pickup Truck
Baring, Wash., July 14 U.R
Two men were killed yesterday
when a speeding Northern Pa
cific passenger train plowed into
their pickup truck at a grade
crossing here.
The dead are Robert Foye, 23,
Monroe, Wash., and Edwin L.
Olson, 56, North Bend, Wash.
They were operators of the Lin
da Olson Logging company of
Baring.
Joint Fleet Maneuvers
Tokyo, July 14 VP) The U.S.
fifth airforce and British fleet
units began joint training exer
cises in the Tokyo bay area to
day. The maneuvers, similar to
those conducted last summer,
will continue through Saturday.
