December Conditions
Are Not Encouraging,
Purchasing Unit Says
BY the Assoeia,ed Press

NEW YORK. Dec. 22.-Decem-
ber business conditions are not
encouraging, the National Associa-
ton Of Purchasing Agents said
today. 4
The association, reporting on a
consensus of purchasing execu-
tives. said "the trend to lower
industrial activity reported in De-
cember has continued, and the de-
cline is much more pronounced"
Production held up fairly we'll
during the first half of the month
and then tapered off land the long
holiday closedowns will bring the
year to an end on low production
rate" the association said.
It reported a sharp drop in new
orders and some decline in back
logs. Inventories were reported
lower, although the number Of
employed held up. and buying
policy was said to be predomi-
nantly within the 90-day range.
"The decline In new business
comes In the face Of continued
price strength. and the portent
of more to come, from Capehart
formula pricing and steel wage
negotiation" the association con-
tinued.
1t said purchasing agents were
reluctant to make "long- term"
new year forecasts.
The consensus, however, is that
civilian production, to which the
industrial economy is still pre-
dominantly geared, will be low for
the first quarter Of 1952-much
lower than during the fourth
quarter Of 1851. Defense produc-
ton will increase substantially,
but the volume will not be large
enough, nor can 1t be spread wide
enough, to cover the bare spots
now developing and which are
to show up in 1852"

Factories and mills were busy.
Employment was high. The con-
sumer was spending.
Prices Still Mount.
A lot of prices were going UP.
Most of the large automobile
makers asked for a raise in whole
sale ceiling prices during the
week. At least one Of them had
its request granted before the
week end.
The Governments cost-of living

increase was attributed chiefly to

Koreon Talks May Be Resumed
 On Wednesday
TOKYO. TUESDAY (AP)

TOKYO. TUESDAY (AP) = Word from Gen. Matthew B. RidgWay that the stalled Korean armistice talks will be resumed was expected at any time today, but Wednesday appeared the earliest likely date the Allied negotiators could meet the Reds agaln at Kaesong.
 Vice Adm. C. Turner Joy and three other members of the five man United Nations delegation flew to Tokyo late Monday and conferred privately with Gener- al Ridgway.
 An aide said later that Gen eral RidgWay was preparing a message of reply to the Commu- mist apology for presence of armed troops in Kaesong Satur- day.
 However, Admiral Joy was at his home in Tokyo early to- day, so any resumption of the kaesong meetings before We'd nesday seemed only dimly pos Sible.
 The supreme commander call ed off the talks Sunday morn ing. He charged the Reds with fragrant violation" of kaesong's neutrality.
 Late Monday afternoon Vice Adm. C. Turner Joy, senior U. N. delegate, and three other Allied negotIators flew to Tokyo from Korea.
 They immediately went into conference with HldgWay at his headquarters.
 The conference ended sever- al hours later when RidgWay returned to his home.
 Tn breaking off the talks Sun day morning, RidgWay demand ed assurances that armed Red troops would not again violate kaesong's neutrality.
 About 150 Chinese soldiers marched within a few hundred yards of the U N. staff house during the luncheon recess Sat urday. They carried rifles, ma chine guns and hand grenades.
