Federal Bonds
on Run1or
OF New Issue
BY ARTHUR MERIMS
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK. June 18.-Gov-
ernment bond prices were
marked down sharply this week
while the corporate bond mar
ket remained steady. Foreign
liens continued to improve.
Rumors that the Treasury
plans to offer a 1ong-term bond
in July to raise needed cash
prompted dealers of Govern
ment securities to lower prices
on outstanding issues. In the
thin over the counter markets,
it took only a little selling to
push prices down.
The usually stable 40-year 8
per cent Government bonds fell

The 30-year 3Hs lost 20/32 at
1861 bid and Victory Loan 21as
Of 1967-72 were down 1882 at

The corporate bond market
showed q selective pattern. Some
debentures were
strong, particularly steel. oil,
chemical and paper issues. In
vestment quality bonds f1uctu-I
ated narrowly, but tended to
favor the plus column.
Foreign liens reflected the i'm
proving international sentiment.
For the fourth consecutive week,
the Associated Press foreign
bond average closed at its high

Summer Jobs

NEW YORK, June ls.-Bigger
factory payrolls in the months
ahead-plenty Of jobs this
summer.
That was probably the most
significant Of the many forecasts
heard this week on the near
term outlook for the Nations
business.
Jumping-off point for rosy
predictions about summer en-
|ployment prospects was the Gov
|ernment's lates report on output
'of factories and mines.
The yardstick was the Federal
Reserve Boards index Of indus
trial production. After allow
ing for seasonal factors. the in
dex for May stood at 13S per
cent Of the 1947-1949 average
an all-time high.
Best news about summer jobs
was provided by q Labor De-
partment survey. It showed
that companies in Is per cent
Of the Nations major employ
ment areas will need more
workers by mid-July. Biggest
increase in hiring, of course. will
be in such seasonal lines as
farming and construction.
Consumer confidence was
buoyed up by wage settlements
In the auto industry and by
prospects for labor peace ir

willing TO take on installmeni
debts than they were q year ago
and they're paying their bill

Americas millions of house
wives may recoil in righteous in
|dignation at the news that their
services are not valued in the
Nations total output per year.
They contribute billions Of dol
lars in household work, in the
creation of useful things, in the
development Of gardens, ETC.,
|etc. But statistically their work
lis valued at zero.

Americas millions Of volun-
teer workers may sQuawk at the
news that their services are not

the Red Cross and get paid. your
services are counted. II you
work twice as hard for the Red
Cross as q volunteer, you're q
blank.
Do-it-yourself is more than q
fad. 1t has become a way Of life.
And as our time-off increases
our work-week is shortened, our
vacations are lengthened-it will
become much more so.
This year alone, it's estimated
that the total Of supplies bought
by do-it-yourselfers viii hit 81
to So billion. On the accepted
premise that the finished prod
'uct usually is worth double the
cost of the supplies, our gross
national product is being under

For months, I've watched the

value of their completed prod

They have, in short, created
$4,000 of value" on their own.
And it's real value. Their home
is now part of Americas goods.

He has potted azaleas in bloom

of several varieties. On the
hillside adjoining the residence,
Mr.. Kimmel has planted more
than 5000 azaleas. Soon they
will be providing quite a show
for the friends and neighbors.
Surrounded by many beautiful
trees and shrubs the residence
itself is quite unusual. Built OF
bluestone from the Potomac
River channel in 1888, 1t is a
landmark in the area.
