Air Industry Feces Strikes By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A large segment of the nation's air transportation industry faced the threat of a spreading shut down today. A strike of some 1,200 American Airlines pilots went into Its fourth day and 20,000 ground crew work ers authorized a walkout against six other major airlines. The new strike threat was di rected against Capital, Eastern, National, Northwest, Trans World and United. The National Mediation Board, moving swiftly to avert new walk outs, called in representatives of the AFL- International Assn. of Machinists (IAM) and the six lines to meet in Washington today. An IAM spokesman said there would be no strike on the six lines while the mediation board tries for a settlement. The IAM is seeking a uniform wage on all airlines, asking a 5 per cent Increase over present top classifications. This would give a mechanic, now paid 13.27 an hour a rate of $2.38. Meanwhile, Clarence N. Sayen, president of the striking AFL Air Line Pilots Assn., declined to com ment on published reports that the pilots' strike may spread soon to United. Tho strike against American Is designed to force an eight-hour limit to a pilot's continuous flying time on nonstop transcontinental schedules. Remember the Name! Compare the Price!

BUM0NT DISTILLING COMPANY, LAWRENCEBURG, INDIANA Total Russian Intfusfria! Opitput Continues To Grow NEW YORK -l.fi There are soft spots in the Soviet economy which are giving headiches to Ssviei leaders, but Russia nevertheless continues to count impressive in dustrial gains. Analysis of the latest oflicial statistical report issued In Moscow a few days aeo gives n raon for believing there has been any slowdown In the U.3.S.R economic-military buildup. ' While continuing to stress heav ily the branches of industry which contribute most directly to arms production and war strength, the Soviet government has succeeded dhrlng the past half year In turn ing out considerably more d 'rablc consumer goods for its people, in-. eluding home appliances. Here are some of the most im portant known fp.cts about the .So viet Industrial economy: OUTCT The Russians say they increased tctal industrial output in the first half of 1954 by 14 per cent over the first half of 1953. For a country already the second industrial pow er on earth, such an increase of output the same as that main tained for 1953 over 1952 Is big. Calculations show Soviet steel production should rise this year by a little over .hree million tons, bringing production in 1954 up to 41 metric tons. Soviet coal output in 1954 should run close to 350 million metric tons. U.S. production last year was about 435 million. Soviet electric power output In 1954 looks to be bout 145 billion kilowatt hours. America's 1953 production was 514 billions. DEVELOPMENT To assure continuance of this pace of Industrial development, the Soviet government is increas ing its already enormous rate of capital investment In Industry. Well over three fourths of the new funds are going Into heavy Indus try, which produces war materials, capital investment goods and raw materials, fuel and power with which to produce these things. But the consumer was not for gotten. ProducUon of television sets In the first half of 1954 rose by nearly three times over the same period of 1953. In the same period output of radio sets more than doubled. refrigerators more than tripled. vacuum cleaners more than quad rupled. Output of other durable consumer goods also Increased by big margins. Such spectacular in-1 creases could be scored simply be- came output previously was notl high. It still Is very low by Ameri can standards, but it Is now a i start to something big. Output of such consumer goods as foodstuffs, textiles, clothe and footwear of much greater imior increased, but by much more modest margins. Against the Soviet gains, there were ne?2:ive aswets O tV work in of the economy in the first half of 1954. The government failed to meet planned redrctloii in casts of in dustrial production. General costs of output fell bv only 3 per cent, even thoueh labor productivity, it is claimed, rose by 1'i per cent Unless this situation Is corrected by year s end. It will tndane" the government's system of annual re tail price cuts. Three Important ministries, over seeing production of timber, fish,' and meat and. dairy products, failed by wide margins to fulfill their production plans. Railway transport In the first half of the year couldn't keep up with Its ear loading plan. HOTELS OS3URN HOLLAND EUGENE. ORE. MEDPORU Thoroughly Modern Mrs. J E.
