The OAR has IA approved schools
on its list. Among them in addi-

Through their children, these

Increase Is Foreseen
In Civilian Supplies
|0f Cotton Goods
By the Associated Press. ;


ABSECON, N. j., Aug. 9.-Donald
B. Tansill, vice president of the
Pepperell Manufacturing Co., fore
sees better supplies of cotton goods
soon, saying ''for the first time In
many months the future looks
slightly more encouraging for the
civilian consumer"
Citing War Production Board adj
vice that war contracts tor a wide
variety Of material will be cut 80 to
40 per cent after the end of the war
in Europe, Mr.. Tansi]l last night
told the postwar planning confer
ence Of the National Retail Dry
goods Association:
During the remaining period of
the Far Eastern war, cotton goods
should be IN a tight position but
not as acutely short as at present
He said most observers assumed
Germany would be beaten first and
that contract termination would not
leave the textile industry with con-
version problems faced by some OF
the heavy industries.
Naturally there will be stable
cancellations of specially construct
ed fabrics, but even in those cases
change-overs should be made in &C
to 80 days." Mr.. Tansill added.
He said his calculations included
furnishing cotton textile ALLEGATIONS
for European relief plans and sup
plying cotton cloths on a minimum
relief basis" to places such as the
Philippines, Java, Sumatra and
! China.

Steel Production Record
Is Considered AMAZING
By the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Despite
predictions to the contrary, the steel
industry has been able to maintain
the steel ingot rate at CTS per cent
of rated capacity for the last two
weeks, the Iron Age said today.
This achievement is considered
amazing in view of the stumbling
blocks spread along the steel pro-
duction path in the past several
months" the trade magazine said.
In the face of this outstanding
steel record in recent months comes
the prediction this week by the WPB
that steel output in the fourth quar-
ter may run between "a and 95 per
cent of capacity Whether or
not the rate will drop as low as that
predicted by the WPB remains to
be seen. The prediction is said to
be predicated upon a steel man.
power deficit of $4,000 workmen.
Defeat of Germany by the fourth
quarter of this year would in itself
cause a temporary sharp drop in
steel ingot production following
drastic cutbacks, but this factor is
not believed to have been present in
the WPB forecast"
The magazine says the steel de-
livery market has not changed "one
iota" from the tight situation which
has existed over the past several
weeks. Heavy sheet demand is APP
parent. and heavy orders from am
munition box and electrical equip
ment manufacturers also have been
placed

Few Utilities Climb
In Narrow, Uneven
Stock Market
BY GARETH MUCHMORE,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, Aug. ga handful
of utility issues, the more active OF
the group under the $40 level, scored
modest advances in the stock mar
ket today although their early gains
were pared.
Low-priced motors drifted under
the burden of continued liquidation,
but selling lacked urgency and
losses were fractional most of the
day.
Prominent shares in other cate
gories were neglected and, toward
the close, held within minor frac-
tions of previous prices. Turnover
was about 100000 shares for the
session.
The war news again was a re-
straining factor to bidding, further
Allied advances inspiring caution
and stimulating consideration of the
effect on domestic industry Of q

In Postwar Plans
OF D. T.. Banks
BY EDWARD c. STONE.

Pushing postwar plans, Washing
ton bankers are preparing to meet
any demands and problems that
may arise, combining most of their
investments to assets that can be
converted into cash, arranging to
meet expected decreases In deposits
and at the same time searching fol
possible new outlets for loanable
funds, according to survey made
today. With the end of the war
getting closer, officials are more and
mere avoiding long-term invest
ments.
Bank officers are giving earnings
q subordinate position, as they
stress hquidity. In the First World
War deposits ran up rapidly and
then dropped Much the same
situation is expected after this war
Banks are placing some funds in
State and municipal bonds that
carry a fairly high interest rate and
are tax exempt, the matter of taxes
being considered vital. The de-
crease in deposits Is expected to be
very gradual and many officials say
they will never drop to where they
were before the war
District bankers feel that the
Government payroll and War Bond
drives will help keep deposits at a
high point for Years. If additional
cash should be needed after the
war, the banks can sell Govern
ment securities and also borrow
from the Richmond Reserve Bank
1t was explained today. Opinions
varied on the amount OF business
borrowing likely in the postwar
period. An increase in personal
loans is definitely expected, with a
new demand for consumer goods.
Most bank officers expressed the
belief that there will be no whole
sale caShing of War Bonds after
the war. AS one banker said, THE
bonds represent the bulk of war
time savings and people will have
too much sense to cash them on a
big scale"
