Iron Age Editor Hopeful
On Postwar Prospects
Ry the Associated Press,

L
DETROIT, May 15-An increase
OF only 23.5 per cent in sales volume
over the 1887 level is all that will be
needed to balance distribution with
production capacity after the de-
fense emergency period, John H.
Van Deventer, editor of Iron Age,
said in an address here today.
Addressing a meeting of the In
dustrial Marketers of Detroit, an Or
ganization of producers and mer-
chandisers, Mr.. Van Deventer said:
your merchandising problem to-
day is not to sell goods; it is to keep
people wanting to buy your goods,
even though you cannot supply
them"
After the war is over" he added,
1--WE may have a superfluity of shells
and guns and tanks, but we will
certainly have a shortage of the
things that people ordinarily need
and enjoy having.
"Ten thousand manufacturing
plants will have worn out their ma
chimes, new and old, by having en-
ployed them on 24-hour, seven-day
basis. There's new demand for you.
THE war-torn nations of Europe
will need to replace the demolished
structures that Mars has left in his
destructive path. That's more
demand"
Mr.. Van Deventer urged his hear
ers to stop looking backward" to
concentrate on new ideas and con
your own future selling power"

NEW YORK, May 15.-Bearish
implications of war and labor news
from Wall Streets angle today re-
ceived the principal blame for turn
ing a mild early stock market rally
into a retreat.
While many leaders never did get
out in front, fractional advances
were well spread over the list in the
forenoon in dealings that were ex-
ceptionally slow.
Steels started to weaken after
midday and these were trailed by
rails, aircrafts and an assortment
of SpecialtieS.
Individual favorites managed to
cling to minor gains but closing
losses of fractions to around 2 points
were well in the majority. Activity
broadened as offerings came out and
transfers for the full proceedings
were around 100000 shares.
Union controversies in the auto
motive, shipping and coal fields and
threats Of nearby railway wage
battle helped chill sentiment, brokers
said. In addition, bulletins from
European sectors, including the per-
sistent mystery of the Hess flight
from Germany, served to revive ner-
vousness among speculative forces.
A fairly good business news budget
was bolstering for individual stocks
but ignored elsewhere.
Petroleum stocks kept losses to
minor amounts. Up occasionally
were Standard Oil New Jersey,
Chesapeake & Ohio, Sears-Roebuck,
International Harvester and ]. I.
Case. Continental Baking AZ made
a new years high before stumbling.
