NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The
textile industry begged down in
q severe depression in 1854 but
was headed for recovery at the
year end. The improvement was
expected to continue In 1855.
While it lasted. the depression
was one Of the industry's worst.
Sales Jagged behind output: fab
ric prices tumbled as production
costs rose. Textile unempioy-
ment mounted.
There was an unprecedented
rash Of mergers.
Cotton Jared better than most
fibers. Total production Of cot
ton broad-woven goods for 1854
was estimated at 9.5 billion lin
ear yards against more than 10
billion yards the year before.
Much sharper was the decline
in output Of synthetic fiber fab
RIGS. Production Of rayon and
acetate broad-woven goods In the
first six months Of 1854 liinped
along at 784. SIC. 900 linear yards
compared to well over q billion
yards in the first half of 1858.
And the downturn In WOO;
manufacturing was even worse.
Output Of wool and worsted APP
parel fabrics shrank in the FIRST

Textiles Headed for Recovery
After One Of Worst Declines

i half Of 1854 to III .193 900 linear
yards cut Of more than %
per cent from i year earlier
while production Of blankets. at
I .269. 900 yards. was down 50 per
cent.
The recovery began IN autumn.
Mil consumption Of cotton went
up in October for the first time
in & year. the rise amounting to
twice the normal seasonal gain
over September.
Rayon and acetate producers
likewise reported better prices
and rising output Wool manu-
facturers noted improved demand
for certain mems apparel fab-
RIGS. notably for fiannels.
While most textile leaders pro-
fessed to see indisputabie evi-
dence that things were getting
better. there were some who said
rising imports Of foreign fabrics
could upset the applicant.

| Electricity Demands
|N Home Users Lift
Output 10 New Peak

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The
average householder. with his
TV, toaster and other appliances.
acted as the bulwark Of the s2e
billion dollar electric utility in
dustry in 1854.
His growing demand Offset q
temporary slump in factory con-
sumption and helped the indus
try TO new peaks.
Power outpus climbed SIS per
cent. g smaller gain than In
1858. but double the increase in
the necessio7i year Of 1919.
The electric companies fore
cast q return to the long term
growth III overall demand in
1858. They planned to spend
$40 billion on new construction,
which would equal last years
record high and top 1853 ex-
penditures BY q small margin.
Record Installations.
AS another indication Of their
outlook, the companies pointed
to the fact they installed b
record amount of new produc-
ton capacity during 1854. The
years total was more than all
capacity added in the entire
decade before the outbreak Of
World War II. "
It was q. year IN which the
industry was occupied with inn
portant developments Of the
past. present and future.
Edison Electric Institute, trade
organization of the private
power companies, said produce
ton increased 20 billion kilo-
watthours over 1853 to reach
All billion kilowatthours.
The gain fell short Of last
years 100 per cent advance over
1852. It was the lowest per-
centage increase since I949,
which ran 3 per cent ahead Of
194S.
81 Million Customers.
Electric companies counted l.3
million new customers during
1854, bringing the total to 5l.2
million.
The number Of rate increases
dropped for the second year, In
q row. Regulatory commissions
granted 20 rate rises, compared
with IS In 1868 and 60 in 1852.
The atomic age moved q bit
closer when ground was broken
for the country's first CONNER
cial nuclear power plant. Du-
quesne Light Co. expects to be
supplying parts of the Pittsburgh
area with electricity from the
plant In 1857.
