Aaaoeiaiad Press Rusinaas Writer


NEW YORK. June 27.-Busi-
ness and industry are sweeping
past mid-1953 at just about the
same high pace they've held for
several months.
Many half-year production
records-in steel, automobiles,
electric power. rubber products
will tumble as June ends.
There was no slackening of
speed this week. Factories
hummed; retail stores reported
trade volume well ahead of its
1852 level.
For months economists have
been looking for some erosion
Of the base Of the business pla-
teau.
At the start Of the year some
Of them professed to see probable
easing in the economic picture
by midyear. Later predictions
put this OF to the third quar-
ter. And now many see no indi-
cation Of much letup before the
end Of the year.
AS the predicted date for a
downturn in activity retreated
farther into the future, business
pointed a little higher.
The Nations total output of
goods and services-'groSs ma
tional product"-claimed to rec
ord rates well above $500 billion
annually.
In the face of a "hard money"
policy that sent interest rates,
higher. business actually raised
its spending plans. indicating
probable capital investment of
around $28 billion this year.

NEW YORK, June 27.-The
continual rise of interest rates

Government bonds turned bullish

High-grade corporate bonds
also advanced briskly. Leading
the rise were liens of such COM
panies as Bethlehem Steel,
American Tobacco, Borden. Con-
solidated Edison, Pacific Gas &
Electric, Katy Railroad and Illi-

japanese bonds continued to
