''The bolt and nut industry is
considered a, good barometer Of
business conditions for fasteners
are used only in conjunction with
other materials. The bolt and nut
business was one of the very
first to feel the present business
decline"
In addition, wire mills, also hit
at the outset. are showing inn
provement. Steel said. Wire vol-
ume in the East. mostly in manu-
facturer's grades, was reported
close to 10 per cent ahead of the
initial first-quarter rate. q
Steel buying for railroad use is
at an extremely low level. the
magazine continued. because Of
the drop in railroad business.
Freight-car loadings this year are

President Eisenhower today
hailed House passage Of the f1ex-
ible price support farm bill as a
great and sweeping administra-
ton victory.
He told news conference that
the House action and approval
of a tax measure by the Senate
last week made his July 4th week
end a very pleasant one.
The House version of the farm
bill-the Senate still must act
called for a flexible support
ranging from 821a to 80 per cent
of parity for six basic crops. The
Secretary of Agriculture would
set the supports in accordance
with the legislation.
No Compromise, He Says.
Pointing out he had never
been in favor of going below 80
per cent of parity, Gen. Eisen-
hover made clear he would not
accept a reporters description
of the House bill as a compro-
mise. He said he was delighted
that under the bill as passed in
the House, supports would not
go below 8212 per cent in the
next year.
AS to the general legislative
program of the administration,
the President said that great
progress has been made toward
its enactment and that the pros
poets were rosy that the public
would get a record of accom-
plishment Of which any admin
iStration would be proud.
For an hour and a half prior
to today's news conference, the
President had met with Repub-
lican congressional leaders for
a thorough discussion of the
administrations legislative pro-
gram and prospects for it's en-
actment as adjournment time
draws closer on Capitol Hill.
Hopes for Labor Peace.
The President also told re-
porters:

ing in red ink. Each week sees
more mine shutdowns and more
men thrown out of work.
The hard coal industry is not
dead. But it gives every eyi-
dence of dying. 1t will almost
certainly die unless something
drastic is done to save it.
Anthracite, Of course, is not
the only part of the coal in
dustry that is in trouble. The
principal i'll affecting it--bitter
competition from competing
fuels like oil aid natural gas
afflicts the great soft coal indus
try as well. President Eisen-
hover, in fact, has just author
lied a special commission to look
into the bituminous problem.
But the coal problem ais q
whole is magnified for convenient
study in the anthracite area
because this is the hardest hit
part of the industry. And the
outlines of the coal dilemma are
clearer and sharper here than in
the multi-State soft coal opera
ton. The hard coal situation,
therefore, is worth close look
at this time.

.
Evening star., 1954-07-07

The President replied in
clipped words that he did not
know by what right the reporter
should say that you have to have
administration support.
He said the administration is
trying to do what it thinks and
believes to be decent and just for
the country. and is not trying to
support any particular or special
group of any kind.
Gen. Eisenhower said that the
opinion expressed by Mr.. Rogers
was part of the administrators
belief, because the administra-
tion thinks it is just and right.
That. said the President. was
his answer.
