Record OUTLAY
For New Plants
Scent 1857

Plant and equipment expend-
itures of business are expected
to advance to new high in the
first 1857 quarter, according to
"a survey of businessmen's an
ticipations by the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the
Department of Commerce in late
october and November.
Expansion programs are sched-
luled at a seaSonally adjusted an
Inual rate of about $38 billion in
the first quarter, compared with
Ia current rate of 1918 billion
and almost $36 billion in the
third quarter of this year. First
quarter expenditures next year
are scheduled to be almost SC
per cent higher than in the first
quarter of 1855, the low for the
recent period.
The survey found that most in
IdustrieS were unable to meet thu
Ithird-quarter programs reported
in a similar survey three months
ago. Fourth-quarter program
also have been scaled down
moderately. Results may in part
reflect effect of last summers
steel strike on capital goods de-
liveries.

Simple Rules Outlined
For Year-End Tax Losses

A few simple rules enabling
small investors to take full adj
vantage OF any savings from
year-end tax losses have been
outlined in the monthly invest
ment letter Of Hayden. Stone g.
Co.. New York correspondents
for Jones. Kreeger & Hewitt.
First is that you can deduct
net capital losses against your
regular income. up to $1,000 this
year and $1,000 a year in each
OF the next five years. Therefore.
a loss OF up to $4,000 can be con-
siderably minimized by realiz-
ing 1t and deducting $1,000 a
year from the highest bracket OF
your taxable income" II says.

Granite
plans Expansion

GRANITE CITY, H., Dec. :
R.-Granite City Steel Co. has
announced plans for a $50 mil
lion expansion program, the
largest in its history.
John N. Marshall, board chair
man, said the proposed program
is tentatively scheduled to begin
in 1860 and would increase ingot
production SO per cent to a
total Of about "a million tons
"a year.
Mr.. Marshall said the program
would bring about a substantial
employment increase, but it was
too early to make an estimate.
The firm now has more than
5000 employees with an annual
payroll of about $50 million.
The firm. at present, is carry
ing out a $50 million expansion
program started last year and
scheduled to be finished in 1858.
Mr.. Marshall said major A.
nancing would be needed for the
new program and sale of COM
mon stock probably would be
involved.
