Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK.

NEW YORK, April 28.-Like a
boxer up against the ropes, the
stock market today tried 10 punch
its way out of a lot Of bad news and,
in many instances, was moderately
successful.
Slight improvement appeared at
the start. There was a subsequent
letdoWn and a last-hour recovery
led by steels. While favorites tackled
on gains of fractions to a point or
so, small declines were plentiful at
the close.
The session was one of the Slow
est since early March, transfers be-
ing around 100000 shares for the
full proceedings.
While the withdrawal of Allied
forces from Greece was thought to
have been more or less discounted,
the Nazi sweep was far from cheer
ing to bullish contingents. Pessi-
mism over the continuance of the
soft coal mining deadlock, threat
enlng production in a number Of
essential lines, also was pronounced.
At the same time, many in Wall
Street felt the market had been
pretty well sold out and part Of
the days buying was attributed to
this idea.
United States Steel. Bethlehem
and youngstown Sheet drew support
in the face of an officially estimated
drop in this weeks mill operations
Of IT points, due almost entirely
to fuel shortage The recession,
though. was considerably less than
some had expected.
The tax question still was a para
mount one marketwise, as earnings
statements of several major COR
porations testified.
General Motors and Chrysler re-
gained balance. Up occasionally
were Union Carbide. Westinghouse,
Air Reduction. Montgomery Ward,
Nickel Plate preferred. Santa Fe,
Southern Railway, General Steel
Castings preferred, Douglas Aircraft.
Sperry. Anaconda and Consolidated
Edison.
Backward were Standard Oil OF

cal. Eastman Kodak, Kennecott and

1941 Auto Production
Expected 10 Reach
100000 Mark
Second Largest TotoI
In History Regarded
As Probability
BY DAVID J. WILKIE,
Associated Press Automotive Editor,

DETROIT, April 28.-Barring
labor troubles or sudden unex-
pected curtailment of raw materials,
the motorcar industry will make the
194l model year the second largest
production period in its history.
With an indicated output in ex-
cess of 100000 units week for the
remainder of the current model sea-
son, car makers generally expect the
industry's aggregate will reach S.
100000 cars and trucks. This will
compare with the record mark of
5,62l,715 vehicles assembled in 1929.
In only one other year have more
than 100000 units been produced.
In 1887 the assembly plants of the
United States and Canada turned
out 5,016.437 vehicles.
Surplus Hard to Build.
Despite the heavy volume of out
put to date-approximately 3,500O0O
units since the new model year began
last October-the accumulation of
large reserve stock has been ex-
tremely difficult. Estimates of the
present field stock vary widely, but
the most frequently heard figure is
100000. Retail sales during March,
placed at 525,798 cars and trucks by
the Automobile Manufacturers As
sociation, cut sharply into the field
supply.
Sales have continued high this
g.
some extent because of the labor
troubles at the Ford plant.
Leading car manufacturers. all
Of whom are reluctant to be quoted
by name at this time, look upon the
20 per cent curtailment of output
requested by the Office of Produc-
tion Management, as "only a be-
ginning" in the restriction of 1912
model assemblies. Many of the pro-
ducers expect further curtailment
before the model year is much more
than half over that will bring the
cut from 80 to 40 per cent.
1912 Outlook Uncertain.
They point out, too, that in press
ing output at this time they are not
trying to establish a high aggregate
merely to lessen the overall effect
of the initial 20 per cent cut. Out
put for the 1912 year, they explain,
is going to be governed entirely by
the availability of materials and
labor under the priorities orders of
the Government agencies.
Some of the volume producers are
currently operating close to the bot
tom of their supplies of raw ma
terials. In some cases emergency
orders for sheet metal have had to
be placed and filled to keep the sup
ply of certain essential parts in pro-
duction and moving to the assembly
lines.
Production last week, according
to Wards reports. totaled 1O8 1855
cars and trucks. This compares with
99,945 the previous week and 101.4O5
for the week ending April 27, 1910.

Wage Control Held
Inevitable With
Prioe-Fixing
N, A. N. Secretary Urges
Limits to Federal
Regulations
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, April 29.-Wal-
ter B. Weisenburger. secretary Of
the National Association of Manu-
facturers, said today that Govern
ment controlled prices inevitably
mean control of wages by Federal
price-fiXing agencies.
Price fixing by Government he
said. obviously depriveS society of
the competitive advantages of free
enterprise. When it is resorted to
as an emergency measure. it should
be confined to specific industries in
which controls are considered neCes-
sary to success Of the national de-
fenSe program"
He spoke at a regional conference
Of the N. A. NJ.
ut must be realized that price
control cannot be confined to a
single field. but must inevitably be
extended to include raw material
costs, wages and other elements of
cost" he said.
prices established for specific in
dustries should be fixed only by a
separate commission after holding
of hearings. and there should exist
a specific right of court review to
determine whether a price fixed by
the Government is is confiScatory. ."
W. H. PrentiS, chairman of the
board of the N. A. M, urged industry
to assume greater measure of
responsibility in shaping the things
to come" lest I'VE shall ultimately
find our liberties devoured in the
NAV of bureaucracy"
Asserting that all industry finds
itself already operating under con-
ditions of virtual dictatorship, -
Prentis said:
The shape of things to come in
America will be determined very
largely in the manner in which free
enterprise solves the problem of
fitting our present system to a de-
fenSe economy in such fashion that
industry operated by private man.
agement will win against foreign to-
talitarianism the most desperate eco
nomic conflict the world has ever
endured, and do this without pri-
vate industry and competitive busi-
ness losing their own identity as the
