Business News Improves
Faster Than Anticipated
By F.LMER C. WAI.ZER
IP! Financial Editor
NEW YORK ill'!' Business
news is improving niore rapidly
than many of the experts had
anticipated.
To Wall Street this proves that
he stock market has been cor
rect in its recent rise which was
supposed to have been discount
ing just such a business recovery
ihe stock market has ignored
the day to day business news and
this leads Sidney B. Lurie, re
search expert for Josephthal &
Co. to remark that "no one buys
the averages and stock prices
are made by factors other than
statistics.
Now that the statistics are im
proving will the market go down
to reverse the trend requires
a change in psychology stemming
irom disillusionment, says Ltirie
He notes there are none of the
financial stresses and strains that
are common to difficult periods,
savings are increasing, and the
pension funds and mutual funds
till are big sources of security
demand.
This market, he savs is a oc-
cuhar animal, "that has its own
habits no set pattern of be
havior. '
i his basic trait of non-con
formance has been accentuated
by a sophisticated buying inter
estand a recession economy in
which there are islands of prosperity.
As a result, generalizations
can be meaningless. For example
it's probably true that the mar
ket as a whole lacks really dy
namic upside possibilities from
here out. But equally important.
there are individual success sto
ries to whet the speculative appe-
mp ana me downside risks have
not become all inclusive. This
would require a change in specu

disillusionment or shock.
Such disillusionment might oc

Speculative emphasis could
change from relief regarding in
oustry s anility to recover to a
question of the level of corporate
earning power possible under the
present scheme of things.
"Once the momentum is lost,"
Lurie says, "fear of our high cost
economy's ability to compete in
world markets may revive.
But he would steer away from
a "do-nothing" policy. There are
many favorable situations devel
oping and many here already.
And, he points out as a clincher,
the strongest of all the market's
seasonal patterns that of the
lummer rally now is underway.
In the past 25 years, the Mav

months following.
"Obviously," he concludes, "re

As for the business news.
there's a bigger than expected
rise in steel operations, improve

If Hollywood could find the an

'Peyton P ' a c e," "Sayonara,"

There is no rule of thumb for
classifying blockbusters, except
that they- do enormous business.
But that can be misleading.
A picture like "Raintrce Coun

On Ihe other hand, films like
"Old Yelle.-" and "Delicate Delin

Variety recently pointed out that

the studio's other films. And Co

MGR sus'gered a loss in a re

not done poorly, but the studio had
failed to produce one big block

Twentieth Century-Fox finds it
self in the best position because
it has been able to come up with
a series of blockbusters. Five are
now in release: "Peyton Place.
"A Farewel: to Arms," "The Long

Wheat Control Proposal

WASHINGTON (AP) - The

a full year making the trip which
our real-life counterparts covered
in halt that time. And the prob
lems of logistics, personnel and
time topped anything that was
dreamed of 95 years ago.
The show's production office
had to consider and solve for
the purposes of the story all
the difficulties that faced the wag
on trains of that day. This was
the easy part. Because then came
the problem of finding good
scripts. When the series was be
gun, in May 1957, there wasn't a
single script which could be adapt
ed to our format. Each of the 39
stories presented during the sea
son was written especially for
Wagon Train.
The newness of the format, that
is, featuring Robert Horton and
myself in alternating episodes,
with each story built around a
name guest star, required not only
unusual stories, but a special style
of writing.
At least half of every Wagon
Train episode was shot on loca
tion. Most of them were filmed
in the vicinity of Thousand Oaks,
Calif., about 40 miles from Holly
wood. Others were made at
more distant sites, with three
filmed in the desert near Tucson.
Ariz.
Every day's shooting on loca
tion created tremendous prob
lems. First, there was the risk of
bad weather. Sites had to be se
lected for each scene that resem
bled terrain the wagon train was
upposed to be passing through.
Then the exact amount of equip
ment, horses, other livestock.
props, costum.es and the thousand

picture had to be ordered and
transported each morning to the
snooting site.
Ihe personnel necessary for a
day's shooting on location ranged
irom 90 to 130. special provision
had to be made each day for
transporting and feeding the en
tire company.
Now that I've gotten this off my
chest, I'll get ready for another
season. Because regardless of the
work and worry, I've never expe

satisfying year in my life.
Talks On Ban Of A-Tests
Hay Start Within Month
By CHARLES M. McCANN
L PI Foreign .News Analyst
It looks as if negotiations with
Soviet Russia for a possible ban
on nuclear weapons tests may be
started before this month is over.
A letter from Soviet Premier
Nikita S. Khrushchev to President
Eisenhower seems to leave the
way for clear for the opening of
the test ban negotiations.
At the same time, negotiations
for a later "summit" conference
of heads of governments on cold
war issues are proceeding secret
ly in Moscow.
Eisenhower told Khrushchev on
May 24 that he was iready to
start technical talks on the test
ban within three weeks after re-

ceiving word that the Soviet fnu.
t-rnment was agreeable.
The President suggested that
the experts who would engage in
Ihe talks make a progress report
within JO days after the start of
their meeting and make a final
report within 60 days or as in
thereafter as possible.
Khrushchev replied SatiirHn-
that he was ready to start the
talks within three weeks, as Ei
senhower suggested. But he pro.
puseu uiai me unai report be
made within three or four weeks
instead of within 60 days.
As regards the details of (ho
talks, Eisenhower suggested tiyit
they be held in Geneva, Switzer
land, and that experts of the
United States, Britain, France and
possibly other countries which
have means of detecting nuclear
weapons tests De included.
Khrushchev said that Geneva
would be a suitable meeting
place but that he preferred Mos
cow. He said he would like Poland
and Czechoslovakia, and India
and possibly some other coun
tries, to be represented. .
This is what Eisenhower had
expected. He is most likely to
propose that Japan, which is un
comfortably in the middle be
tween Russian tests in Siberia
and American tests in the Pa
cific, be included.
Presumably, the next step mav
be for Eisenhower to suggest a
firm date for the start of the
meeting and either to accept Mos
cow as the meeting place or to
ask again that it be Geneva.
There is no guarantee that ex
pert talks will result in an agree
ment to end the nuclear weapons
tests.
Regarding the summit confer
ence negotiations, the United
States, British and French am
bassadors in Moscow have con
ferred separately with Soviet For
eign Alinister Andrei A. Gromy
ko on this question within the
last week.
There is no indication of the
progress being made, if any, in
hese talks.
