CLEVELAND. MAY l9.-Daily
Metal Trade said today the War
Production Boards decision to cancel
construction of new war plants un-
less they can be completed before
the middle of 1943 would not have
much effect on the steel industry.
Because its expansion program

In the Pittsburgh district there
are no plants which fall into the

Association President
Says Industry Faces
Operating Losses
b. the Associated Press.

b the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 19-The food
manufacturing industry is at a
standstill as a result of the whole
sale price ceilings which went into
effect a week ago, Paul S. Willis.
president of the Associated Grocery
Manufacturers of America, said to-
day, preliminary to the organiza-
tons meeting starting Thursday.
The manufacturers are anxious
to resume full scale operations IN
order to fill the civilian, as well as
the military, need of the country" "
Willis said, but they cannot do so
as things stand today because if
they do they will operate at loss"
Willis said manufacturers had
been keeping prices down to the
lowest possible level and delayed ad-
vances even after costs had risen.
Dealers in turn sold at the old low
cost rates, although their replace
ment costs were higher, he contin-
ued.
The net effect of this effort TO
pass on to the public the benefit of
low costs has been that dealer prices
have Jagged about so days behind
cost trends" Willis said.
The merchandise which dealers
now have on hand cost them more
than their March ceiling prices. Be
cause of rising costs, the manufac-
turers' list prices now are higher
than the retailers ceiling Any
transaction means loss"
Willis said the association would
discuss its problems at meetings
here Thursday and Friday. Secre-
tary of Agriculture Claud r. Wick
ard is expected to address the group
Thursday.

Boost Production
Despite Ickes
Longest and Heaviest
Run Since Jonuoy
Started Today
BY the Associated Press.

AUSTIN, Tex, May 19.-Despite
Federal Petroleum Co-ordmator
Harold L. Ickes' criticism 1t was "a
serious blow to the war program" :"
Texas oil operators today began the
longest and heaviest production run
since January.
Barring Federal intervention some
$4,000 wells in the State, by order
of the Texas Railroad Commission.
State oil production regulatory
agency, will be allowed to how more
than 100000 barrels daily for the
remainder Of May.
In Washington yesterday, Ickes,
who has recommended only 960. 900
barrels day oil production in Texas,
asserted that the State agency was
making q mistake in allowing the
higher volume.
Commissioner Jerry Sadler. who
with Commissioner Olin Culberson
signed the order, declared:
Il signed the order in question
because I wanted to see all war
contracts filled and If some one
shows me that I made a mistake,
shall be glad to correct it."
Culberson and Sadler have con-
tended that further slashing Of
Texas production would drive
thousands of small operators into
bankruptcy. They stated that
sworn nominations of purchasers at
an emergency proration hearing last
week totaled more than 100000
barrels day and that on a recent
date $4,000 900 barrels of vacant
storage was available.

Period Aheod
BIZ the Associated Press.

BE- the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va, May 19.-Al-
though encouraged by the greatly
improved financial condition of the
company, the Board of Directors
of the Southern Raialway decided
today to husband its resources in
this period of uncertainties" and
not to declare any dividend on
either the preferred or common
stock.
The decision of the board was
reached Immediately after the an
nual meeting of stockholders which
reelected Robert M. Hanes of Win
ston-Salem, N. c.: Hugh Morrow OF
Birmingham, Ala, and knight
Woolley of New York to the board
for three-year terms. and named
Leverett F. Hooper, vice president
Of the First National Bank of New
York. to fill vacancy on the board
left by the retirement of Jackson E
Reynolds of New York. Hooper's
term also is for three years. The
directors reelected all officers.
Rejecting the sentiment expressed
at the stockholders meeting, Ernest
E. Norris of Washington, president
OF the railway, said the board. be
ing OF the opinion that in this pc
riod of uncertainties, mounting
taxes and increasing costs. it is ad-
visable in the interests of the stock
holders and the ultimate safety of
their investment to continue to con-
serve and increase the company S
working capital and resources, de-
termined by unanimous action today
that at this time no dividend be de-
clared on either the preferred or
common stock"
Norris told the stockholders that
one of the worst things that could
happen was to start paying divi-
dends before a backlog" was built
up to carry us through the next
depression" A number of stock
holders, commencing the handling
of the company'S affairs, expressed
agreement with this policy.
The company had several cheer
ful news items for the stockholders.
In 194l the company broke its
freight records for all time with
10,558, ,709 260 ton miles of revenue
freight, 1702 per cent more than
the previous high in 1926. A Re-
construction Finance Corp. loan of

able June 80 to stockholders of
record June 10. was declared today
by the directors of the New Eng
land Telephone & Telegraph Co.,
representing a reduction Of Is cents
from the last dividend of SITS.
President John j. Robinson said
that the smaller dividend was voted
to provide for unknown but eX-
pected heavy tax increases which
will affect the company's earnings -
If the increased taxation to finance
the war program "shortens the road
