BEHIND The
TICKER

NEW YORk-There's no doubt
in the minds of sales managers
that the sharp decline in security
prices created lot of caution in
buying circles. That's why buyers
aren't placing large orders these
days. But-say bankers-it only
creates a larger backlog OF bust
ness which will certainly be used
as a springboard when overhang-
ing national and international po-
litical uncertainties are clarified.
Restandardizing - Leaders of
railroads and rail-making steel
companies will go into a huddle
early this month. Rail heads want
the standard length of steel rails
TO be increased from 80 feet to As
feet and are willing to pay 81 per
ton more If that is done.
Steel producers say 1t will cost
some $4,000 900 TO change plant
facilities to increase the length of
rails by six feet. They don't care
to do so now because they say fur
Their changes will again be made at
later date.
Rail men say the longer rails
give passengers smoother ride.
To this steel men say then why
wouldn't II be a good idea to in
crease rail lengths to 10 standard
feet as in England, or 10 feet as
in Germany? II done now II would
do away with changes later on.
