Hudson Spends
| so Millions
In Newspapers

Fifty millions of dollars have been
spent in newspaper advertising by
the Hudson Motor Car Co. since its
formation in 1909 until the present
time. William A. James, advertising
and merchandising manager, re-
vealed today.
Commenting upon this huge ex-
penditure in connection with Hud-
sons 30th anniversary celebration
this week, Mr.. James said: "Hud-
sons investment of $4,000, 900 in
newspaper space is approximately
equal to the amount invested by the
company in real estate, plants and
equipment and provides ample proof
of the high regard which this COM
pany holds for newspapers as
merchandising medium. Further
more, Hudson has always scheduled
the major share of each years ad-
vertising appropriation in news
papers because we believe that the
timing and placement flexibility of
this medium enables us to mobilize
our advertising dollars to best sales
advantage"
"Co-incident with the 30th ami
versary of Hudson, we are inaugu-
rating one of the most aggressive
merchandising eras in the company's
history. Naturally, we are gearing
our advertising appropriations to
this new program and. as in the past.
newspapers will play the major role
in presenting Hudsons' message to
the buying public" James declared.

Coal Dispute Blamed
For Sharp Decline
In Steel Output
Ten More Furnaces Are

~ the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May l0.-The coal
dispute was blamed today by Iron
Age, steel industry publication, foe
part of the slackening in steel oper-
atoms.
It reported: "A decline of points
In ingot production in the Pitts
burgh district, together with minor
reductions at Chicago and Buffalo,
has broAght down the rate for the
industry as whole to Al per cent
from an estimated 40 per cent foe
last week.
ION top of a net loss of 81 active
blast furnaces in April, there has
been reduction of 10 furnaces so
far this month. OF these, three are
in the Pittsburgh district, three in
the Chicago district, two in the
Birmingham district, one at Cleve-
land and one at Buffalo
Some Stacks Banked.
"Some of the stacks we're banked
and some were blown out. United
States Steel units account for six of
the idle furnaces.
Reduction in output of steel and
pig iron has been dictated partly by
a smaller demand for steel and
partly by efforts to conserve coal
and coke in the event that the coal
miners strike is not quickly ended
I'm a good many instances, steel
customers have held up shipments
of steel from the mills in evident
fear that their own operations may
be curtailed by coal shortage Rou-
tine buying of materials by railroads
for car repairs has virtually ceased
Ninth Weekly Decline.
'The downward trend in steel
production, automobile assemblies
and carloadings in particular has
brought the ninth consecutive
weekly decline in the Iron Age capt.
tai goods index, which for this week
stands at 5e2, against 764 in the
week Of March T. The index figure
for the comparable week in 1888 was
47.4. ""'

scrap buying by domestic mills
there have been no further impor-
tant declines in prices. The Iron Age
