Although the adverse effects of the New York and Cleveland newspaper strikes have resulted in lower production totals in Can ada, production by the U.S. paper industry for January and the ear ly weeks of February, 1963, ran slightly ahead of the correspond ing 1962 period. "Most economists are of the opinion that business volume will be at higher levels in lt63 than in 1962. We believe that tylal U.S and Canadian production of pulp jiaper and papcrboard in 1963 w ill show an improvement over 1U62, with the bulk of this improve ment occurring in the latter half. of the year."

Mclntyre. president of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Klamath Falls, has been appointed to the 1963 Com mittee on the Federal Home Loan Bank System of the United States Savings and Loan League. The appointment was an nounced today by Frank B. Yeild ing of Birmingham, Ala., presi dent of the league, which is the nationwide trade organization ol tlie savings and loan business and represents more than 4,900 savings associations and co - operative banks. The Committee on the Federal Home Loan Bank System con cerns itself with the effectiveness of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, and there have been nu merous studies made by the com mittee on the various phases of tlie board's operations and poll cies, election ot rHLB directors and effect on the Bank System of regulations proposed by the Fed eral Home Loan Bank Board.

Consump tion of domestic whisky declined to 69 per cent of the total for all spirits in 1962 from 73.3 per cent five years ago. Drive Set To Boost Insured Limit Oregon savings and loans firms will join in a drive to increase the ceiling on insured savings from $10.0(10 to $25,000 as one oi the major legislative objectives of the United States Savings and Loan I-eague. Richard M. Shorelt, Seattle, member of the executive com mittee of the USSLL representing the stales of Oregon, Washington. Idaho. Montana, Wyoming and Alaska, said lilting of the insur ance coverage ceiling was part ot a broad legislative program approved during the league's leg islative conteivnce in Washington, DC, last week. Shorett, who is executive vice president of the Metropolitan Fed eral Savings nnd Loan Assn., Se attle, said "an increase in the present insurance ot accounts eiling will remove tlie artilicial restraint which has been imposed bv tlie existing $10.txxt coiling. "Various studies have borne out the fact that numerous investors will not or cannot build savings capital beyond the insuring lim it and thus are required to divert funds to other institutions." He noted that the higher wiling has been approved by savings and loan institutions by the Federal Home IxKin Hank Hoard ami (or banks by the Federal Deposit In surance Corporation. According to the league official. anotlwr major part of the league's legislative program will take the form of seeking broader invest ment powers lor s.iwng and loan associations. "It is becoming clear that the basic home linaik-ing needs of the American home owner extend beyond tlie boundaries of the home loan nnd embrace related facilities and equipment." said Shorelt. Streets, schools, sewers and water works arc imxirtant to community development and home furnishings and equipment arc necessary ingredients for family living. However, the ba sic home mortgage is not ade quate to handle this variety of liimily-oricnted needs, and new- types of investment powers arc needed if savings and loan insti tutions can help to satisfy these needs." For this reason, he added, the league will seek legislation which will permit associations to invest a limited portion of tlieir funds in loans on household furnishings and equipment, and also to in vest in municipal securities.
