Expanding Business
Is Widely Reported;
Big Christmas Seen
By Richord Fiske
Associoted Press Business Writer

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-Reports
of good business were widespread
this week. The retailers talked a
record Christmas.
Industrial operations were close
to their best 1852 figures. Some
hit new high spots.
Salesmen'S order books were
we'll filled. Employment was high.
some industries were looking for
more workers.
Defense orders accounted for a
lot of the business. But many
consumer goods manufacturers
had something to smile about for
the first time in months.
Differences of Opinion.
There still were differing opin-
ions on how much of the good
business was created by. defense
orders.
Secretary of the Treasury Sny-
der said the Nation is in a real
prosperity" supported by more
permanent items than defense
spending.
On the other side of the fence
were economists who took the
view things would fall flat with
out defense dollars.
1nduStrialists generally saw con-
tinued good business through the
rest of this year. But many
weren't ready to blueprint an over
all pattern for 1858.
Shoppers bought a little more
than a year ago in the retail stores.
according to Dun and Bradstreet.
But the stores found they had
to do a little selling to get the
business. Easy credit was being
stressed by some storekeepers.
Many were extending their Shop
ping hours to two or more nights
a week.
Record Christmas Seen.
The retailers who saw record
Christmas sales, were free to COM
ment that it wouldn't be any
clnch to reach these heights.
There were price increases, how
ever. during the week-in soft
coal. Some of the large producers
announced price increases at the
mine beginning October l.
A labor shortage in the Detroit
area bothered the auto makers
ana Wards automotive report
SAID the industry was planning to
hire women again.
The C1O Auto Workers asked
Ford Motor Co, to put approxi-
mately seven thousand pensioned
workers back to work to relieve
the manpoWer shortage.

Corporate Bonds Hold

NEW YORK. Sept. a27.-While
the corporate bond market mixed

from under long-term Government
obligations.
The most distantly maturing
Treasury bond eligible for COM
mercial bank purchase, the 2l2s of
September, 1967-1972, fell half a
point to Sc 4/32 bid, a new. 1852

tion away from the winter low.
However, the 2sss of 1858, con-
sidered the bellweather of Govern

The armada moved peacefuIls
over the wastes of the sea, through
quiet days and nights. There was
no sign of the enemy: nothing but
rolling waters. blue by day and
black by night, an empty sky, and
ships of war in every direction as
far as the eye could see, steamine
in a great majestic diagram under
the stars and the sun.
Willie Keith was a full-fiedged
officer of the deck now, and he
took for granted all the mechani-
cal aids that eased his task. He
did not consider the work easy
He was enormously and continu-
ously impressed with his quick
won mastery Of the sea, and with
his military authority. He prowled
the wheelhouse. lips compressed,
chin high, forehead puckered in
Ia squirting scowl, shoulders
hunched forward. hands clench-
ing the binoculars through which
he frequently frowned at the hori-
zon. Histrionics apart, he was a
competent GOD. He knew when
to order the boatswain's mate to
pipe sweepers. when to darken
ship. when to call away cooks and
bakers in the early morning, when
to rouse the captain and when
to allow him to sleep. The dense
olackness Of a rain squall at mid
night did not scare him, not while
the radar scope picked out the
task force for him in a neat pat
tern OF green dots.
The Caine was placed on the
right flank Of the formation. in
the inner anti-submarine screen.
Two belts Of destroyers surrounded
the troop transports. carriers.
cruisers. battleships, and landing
craft. Each destroyer constantly
searched a narrow cone Of water
for echoes. and the cones over
Tapped. No submarine could ap-
proach the formation without
causing telltale pings aboard one
OF the destroyers.
