Decline In Steel
Steel mill operations declined to
67.2 per cent of capacity last week
the American Iron and Steel Ingti-
tute reported. The apparent steep
ness of the drop, steel men said,
was in some measure of a reflection
of the system of calculating the
rate the previous week when five
day basis was used instead of the
usual six days
Steel consumption was said tC be
comparatively brisk for this time
of year. Some buying was bel ev-
ed to have been motivated by fears
of strikes in the industry.
Holiday Considered
Owing to the Fourth Of July hol-
day, the Edison Electric Institute

han the preceding week but sharp
y ahead of the 1866, 100000 kilo-
watt hours of the like week year
lgo.
Showing less than seasonal drop,
power production was explained by
some observers in terms Of the
eluectrification work progressing in
many rural districts and heavy
household use of Iefrigerators and
other appliances. Irrigation pump
ing also played a part, it was said.
A drop of nine per cent in freight

Auto Output Drops

Automobile production for the
week was down to 1888 units
from 1O0,67S the week before and
compared to SO, ,45O in the like 1885
week, Grams estimated. That the
downturn was not greater, analysts
said, was due to comparatively
well-sustained purchasing power
for the country.
Auto men pointed to the gain Of
"a per cent in June over year ago
in factory sales by members Of the
Automobile Manufacturers AssC cia-
ton. The total, 367.3O3 units, was
a record high for the month.
Wide upswings over June, 1885,
sales reported by chain stores and
mail order units bore witness both
to the stimulus of soldiers bonus
spending and expanded general
buying power flowing from busi-

State Senate Acts On Mea-
sure To Limit Suspen-
sion Authority

COLUMBIA. S. c., April %
(UP)-The state senate last mght
voted to curb the suspension pow
er of the governor of South Caro-
lima.
In giving second reading to u
measure providing for the method
and procedure Of suspending state
and county officers, little discus
sion arose other than q motion by
Senator Folk of Bamberg to strike
out the enacting words. which was
quickly killed, and short talk by
Harry Hughs of Oconee, urging
passage of the bill. -
The measure provides that a
circuit judge shall be the one to
issue rule to show cause why
an officer should not be suspend
ed, following Il petition by the
governor and sigited by the states
attorney general requesting rule
be issued. However, the petition
would come only after the chief
executive has been satisfied upon
an affidavit sworn to that the
questioned officer is probably
guilty of misconduct or persistent
neglect of duty in office"
Senator Hughs, in motioning to
table Folks suggestion to con-
tinue. declared the governor at
present sis the accuser, prose
cutor, the judge. That, in itself,
is sufficient reason to change the
law, because it was never intend
ed to be interpreted that the gov
ernor be all three"
The present highway contro-
versy was strongly limited at by
Hughs when he asserted, 'The
governor has demonstrated the in
