HERALD AND NEWS. Klamath Falls. Ore w Fi1Hrv. March 1R. l!)fir Official Reports Hazy On U.S. Business Outlook WASHINGTON (AP) Offi cial reports tended today to c!ouf rather than clarify the business outlook. The upward thrust of business activity just about stalled in February, alter lifting produc tion and income to record heights since the steel strike. The output of minet. mills and utilities sagged 1 per cent last month from the January peak, the government says, while the incomes of Americans were vir tually unchanged. Air Pollution Curbs Slated PITTSBURGH (API - Tough ir pollution regulations, which even clamp down on cookouts, have been approved by the Al legheny County Board of Health. The regulations tighten the lid en such air pollution sources as steel mill chimneys, but also reach individuals. Under the proposals, motorists wouldn't be allowed to idle their cars more than three minutes in or out of traffic. And it would take a written directive by the director of air pollution control to permit such 0111 fires as back yard grills. Enactment of legislation is to the county commissioners. up Relatives Find Boy In Creek OREGON CITY (API-Frantic relatives found a 4-year-old hoy face down in a creek near here Wednesday night. Firemen ap plied artificial respiration and re vived the child. A hospital said David Fuller of Milwaukie later was in satisfac tory condition. Council Of Churches Plans to observe the 23th anni eersary of the Oreiion Council of Churches the fourth week ir March have bronaht an outpour inn of reminiscenses and congratu lations from churchmen and lay men throughout Orenon, and even from outside the state. J. Quintcr Miller, assistant gen' ci al secretary lor field operations for the National Council of Church- ex. wrote: "The Oreon Council of Churches was born in a time of need when (he depression of the .Ks was calling for the utmost in practical services which the churches could render to the people of our towns and cities. During World War II, it continued to carry a consider able ministry to communities stripped of their young men, ami larking sufficient pastoral lead-ership. "During the rapid growth of the pint-war period, the council h helped the various cuoperat ing churches see their responsibilities and opportunities in the various communities of the state, which has led to a cooperative mission rather than a competitive mission "Its concern for the people in our (late hospitals and prisons, its practical work for the migrant workers in our state, and for the advancement of standards of mol ality in private and public life have provided a considerable con trihution to Oregon as a whole." Church dignitaries have admon Hied that "the churches must face vp to the great and callenging issues of our time, that the rec ord of the past quarter century is the hest augury for the continued growth of the Oregon- Council in getting the churches to join hands in a common attack on common problems and that we can best do it by the united action such as is exemplified In our Oregon Coun cil." n March 20 has been named as the day for pastors to sound the call to unity and for creation of a greater Oregon Council through a finer spirit of oneness among all -, churches of Jesus Christ. Government economists vainly soarched lor sonic clear evidence whether this was just a pause in the steady advance President Eisenhower predicted would con tinue beyond I960 or whether the boom is wealmning. !o many Wall Streoters were pessimistic that stock prices, plunged in the selling waves of recent weeks. Government economists tend to stick to Eisenhower's ontimistie view. February's weather usually distorts the statistics they say. One official predicted privately that the pre-Ea-ter buying and faster automobile sales as the weather improv es ' will brighten the out look. He added: "You can t tell a thing until the March figures are in hand, a month from now." The Federal Reserve Board took an optimistic view. Its uro- duction report was coupled with this summary of conditions: .Most measures of business ac tivity remained at advanced lev els in February and unemploy ment declined. "Housing starts decreased fur ther but a recent survey of busi ness pians indicated a continu ing rise in expenditures for plant and equipment through the year, to a total 14 per cent more than in 1959." Wednesday's income and tro- uuiuuii reports came as some- hing of a surprise in view of luesday's announcement that employment rose in February to a record for the month, while joblessness dipped to the lowest rate since 1957. Federal Reserve said industrial production, as measured by its newiy revised index, dipped to 110 per cent of the 1957 average The Fehruary drop was blamed mainly on automobile plant cut backs and reduced output of con Mimer gnods. nut steel production also slipped. It went to 04 per cent ol capacity as deliveries filled up the stocks of users more rapidly than had been expected. rcnerai lveserve said steel out put has been reduced "to scheduled rale of 91 per cent in miri-.Maicli. The Commerce Department's report on personal income showed a rise ot ?.m million dollars to a record rate of Ml million year. This was the smallest gain since August, the low point of the steel strike. For the first two months of WW) the income flow was up per cent (from a year ago)," the department said, "representing an almost similar gain in pur cnasing power as prices were only about 1 per cent higher." -Most of the gain in wage and salary income resulted from high er weekly earnings, the depart men! said. Employment also rose seasonally, but the length of the average factory workweek declined.

Way Cleared By President For Nixon WASHINGTON (API Presi-tion's farm program. Nnym has been talking intermittently lor weeks with individual farm ex- dent Eisenhower appears to have given Vice President Richard M. Nixon the clear track signal ;o run his own presidential cam paign. Friends of Nixon, the prospec tive (iOP nominee, are interpret ing Eisenhower's press conference remarks Wednesday as indicating the vice president can step some what beyond administration poli cies without risking a White House chill. Eisenhower said he will impose certain limits on himself in cam paigning, will not try to over shadow the nominee and will not publicize any difference he may have with him. These comments went a long way toward freeing Nixon's friends from the fear Nixon might face just such a situation as Adlai E. Stevenson did in 1952. Stevenson, the Democratic nom inee, tried in that year to break away from the Truman admini stration record particularly that part the Republicans tabbed as "the mess in Washington." But President Harry S. Truman kept proclaiming that his admini stration's record was the issue in the campaign. The signs are getting clearer every day that Nixon intends to break away from the labels Sec. ret ai y of Agriculture Ezra Tafl Benson has put on the administra te, getting their ideas for a program of his own. Eisenhower said that the vice president h is been a "parly ' t in any campaign. the formatiivi of the agriculture program he hail sent to Congress.
