EXPANSION SEEN
IN TIRE INDUSTRY
Stronger Inventory Position
and Increasing Demand
Are Noted.
spe cial Dispatch to The Star.

epe cial Dispatc to The Star.
NEW YORK, Sept. l6.-The SUBJ
stantial strengthening Of the inventory
position in the tire industry and in
creasing demand give promise Of ma
terial expansion in operations this
fall, and, contrary to usual seasonal
experience. second half sales should
be we'll ahead Of those for the first six
months Of the year. according to the
Standard Statistics Co.
Tire production dropped nearly 47
per cent in the first seven months Of
1888, but the decrease in shipments
was only about 80 per cent. Thus, ac-
cordlng to the Rubber Manufacturers
Association, producers stocks of tires
on July 80, were "a per cent below the
level at the end of 1897 and almost
80 per cent below the year-earlier fg-
ure. Little, if any, further reduction
in tire inventories is expected, as with
business prospects improving, sub
stantial additional decline in easing
inventories would probably handicap
the industry.
At the start Of the current half
year, distributors with 100 or more
units in stock held total Of 6,013.O0O
castings, or per cent fewer than were
on hand at the 1887 mid-year. The
stronger market for replacement cas-
ings this summer has doubtless kept
dealer stocks relatively low. With the
threat Of price reductions now largely
absent, it is expected that marketers
will pursue more liberal buying
policy.
The marked upturn in automobile
output indicated for the remainder Of
the year should provide an important
stimulus to total tire operations and
should tend to Offset the usual sea-
sonal downtrend in replacement
casing sales which comes in the closing
months Of the year. Thus. it is esti-
mated that second half tire produc-
ton will be close to 22,000,O 900 units
which would be more than 80 per
cent greater than that for the first
halt Based on this forecast, full year
output would be in the neishborhood
Of $4,000, 900 units.

BUSINESS URGED
TO BROAD VIEWS
National Petroleum Group
Told Trade Can't Wait
on Conditions.
Special Digpa tch to The Star,

ATLANTIC CITY. N. j., Sept. 1e.-
Business cannot wait for either politi-
cal or other conditions to be ironet
out. Ours is the day-to-day Job of try
ing to operate our business at a profit
under any and all conditions" earle C.
Conway, chairman Of Continental Can
Co., Inc, told the convention of the
National Petroleum Association at the
Hotel Traymore yesterday in q vigor.
Gus plea for more open-mindedness anc
guidance by actual results and realitie,
on the part OF business. =,
In the course of an address on
Business in America and Europe, u
Mr.. Conway pointed out that "in what
ever nation, We find always that the
business conclusions to be arrived at
must be based on cold, hard facts and
not on preconceived theories or wishful
thinking" and added that we are In
the greatest trial-and-error period in
the worlds history.
Says Curtain Is Rising.
Stating that he believes business is
solving and will continue to solve its
problems and that he believed in this
country the punitive curtain is falling
and the cooperative curtain is rising
he declared
1T would be great achievement il
business and Government = would
sit around table in q spirit of honest
debate. with the national interest fore
most in the minds of ALL There are
encouraging signs that such an atti-
tude is in the making here. 1t behooves
us to foster 1t all we can. Out OF the
present situation must come a method
of harmonizing the national interest
with the interest Of industry"
Problems Of Business.
Based upon the experience Of his
company and its associates doing busi-
ness in England, France. Germany
Holland, Belgium, Cuba. Australia and
South Africa, as well as in the United
States, Mr.. Conway pointed out that
business must, and does, operate under
many and widely varying conditions,
both political and economic, and that
the problem of management is to oper-
ate under the conditions confronting it.
1T is question whether many busi-
ness gatherings, where practically the
whole discussion is centered upon our
political woes, are as helpful to US in
tackling our next days work and
problems as they would be If the time
were devoted to studying what can be
done under the conditions existing
he said.
Normally and stability are words
Of nostalgia Renaissance and do not
indicate actual realities. We long for
the peace and quiet Of the old days
and. at the same time, we move
farther away from them by improving
our business methods each year"

Figures
What They Mean
BY A. A. PATTON.

ASSOCIATED Press Statistician)
NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-The boost
in copper prices to 1914 cents pound
from 101s cents, the first change IN
almost two months, came on the heels
Of August statistics showing the
sharpest inventory reduction in more
than three years.
Domestic stocks declined 8 per cent
to 315,000 tons This was the third
successive drop from the recession
peak in April, cutting inventories
$4,000 tons.
Curtailment in supplies reflected 4
substantial upturn in consumption.
The copper institute reported refined
shipments of the metal (the nearest
measure of consumption) in August
were the largest for any month since
September last year.
The $4,000 tons shipped last month
more than doubled the poorest month
this year and topped the recession low
December) by 157 per cent.
inventories at 1885 Level.
The copper skies seem to have
been Frightening steadily for several
months. Inventories today stand at
approximately the same level as in
February. 1885, while sales are run
ming 20 per cent above that point and
quotations are IA per cent higher.
In other words, analysts say. the
copper people are doing . larger vol
ume of business at a better price
with q smaller backlog of refined metal
than was the case before the 1935-37
boomlet got under way.
Consumption has a long way to go,
however, before again attaining the
heights reached early in 1887. At
that time hungry consumers were
taking around $4,000 tons q month
compared with the August total Of
$4,000 tons. Copper prices climbed
to II cents pound at the top, while
inventories were scarcely one-third
the recent level at that time.
Foreign Situation.
The foreign situation differs sharply
from the domestic. There has been
no comparable slump in buying of the
red metal abroad. Indeed, the August
data places consumption on par
with April when the total was the
largest in more than q decade.
The setback in this country, and
the attendent drop in prices, as some
see it, gave rearming Europe a chance
to buy necessary metal for less money.
Some idea of the rate OF consump-
ton abroad is obtained by comparing
the latest shipment figure, l29, 500
tons, with the total in q year Of world
prosperity like 1929. when only 10000
tons were taken in the biggest month
of the year.
One possible fly in the sugar, OBJ
servers maintain, is that improving
demand may tempt producers to step
up output, thereby hurting the chances
of cutting substantially into available
stocks.
Mine production in August totaled
36,500 tons Not an enormous volume
in itself-being less than half the
output at the peak last year-it marks
the first major boost since the throttle
was cut last fall and may indicate
further gains in the ofdng.

TREASURY GOLD HOARD
REACHES RECORD PEAK

Ey the Associated Press.
!. NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-Gold poured
into this country from q war-fearful
Europe at the fastest clip in more
than a year during the week ended
September H.
On top of last weeks s102, ,000, 900
influx came sl84 100000, boosting the
Treasury gold hoard to another rec
ord peak.
A contributing factor to the heavy
importation of metal, bankers said
was the unfavorable trade balance of
England. At least part of the gold
was in settlement of these balances
