incomes are climbing and bill
lions have been added to wages
and salaries in 1857.
Businesses In many lines Of
defense products are facing an
adjustment to a lower level Of
sales and that prospect has
chilled many areas. But such
industries as housing are i'm
proving.
It's q contradictory economy,
In short. In which some indus
tries are moving down while
others are moving up-and the
overall pattern is one of activ-
ity at a very high level.
This. in the Central Banks
view. is not recession. Rather,
this is an essential adjustment
which will set the stage for the
next upswing as we progress

Record Seen
For Finished
Steel Output

CLEVELAND. oct. II R1.-
Consumption Of finished steel
win hit q record IS million tons
this year. with 80 million
coming from mill shipments
and the other million from In
ventories. Steel magazine pre-
dicted yesterday. Last years
consumption was about 70
million tons.
The Woodworking weekly
said steel inventories totaled
around 20 million tons at the
beginning Of the year follow
ing q 4 million ton addition in
1856. The net reduction OF
q million tons in the inven-
tories will still leave 10 million
tons in stock at the end Of the
year. which Is, equal TO about
three months usage. the maga-
zine said.
The need to carry large in
ventories is eliminated because
mills are able to make prompt
delivery on all forms Of steel
except heavy plates and struc-
tural shapes. the publication
said. II added that as long as
inventory reduction Is under
way there viii be apathy in
buying.
Steel said producers Of
capital goods, such as machine
tools and plant equipment. are
disappointed about prospects
for new orders In the fourth
quarter Of 1857. but they see
indications Of an upturn In
1858. probably in, the third
quarter.
Many consider the current
slump as q breathing spell in
which to consolidate their gains
Of the last two abnormally high
years." the magazine said.
Prices Of steelmaking grades
Of scrap continued to fall.
Steel's price composite dropped
sl.67 to $37.83 a gross ton. the
lowest point since July. 1855.

SEC Files Court Appeal
In Variable Annuity Case

The Securities and Exchange
Commission today appealed
from an order Of the United
States District Court in the
action the agency brought
against the Variable. Annuity
Life Insurance Co. and the
Equity Annuity Life Insurance
Co.
The court dismissed q COM

which sought to enjoin the
defendants from violating the
registration provisions Of the
Securities Act Of 1888 and the
Investment Company Act Of
1910 in connection with the
sale Of contracts described as

The defendants contended
the contracts were insurance
policies specifically exempted
from provisions of the Secur-
titles Act Of 1888 and that the
defendants themselves were
insurance companies and not
subject TO provisions Of the
Investment Company Act.
The SECS decision to appeal

YOUR

Is 1t Recession?

At q small. private meeting
In New York recently, William
Nice. Martin. Federal Reserve
Board chairman. gave an on
the-record talk. Soon after the
meeting. rur1ors were swinging
around Wall Street that Mr.
Martin had said he thought
the economy was in for q bad
slide. but that the Reserve
Board would do nothing to
cushion It because we had to
go through these recessions now
and then.
This rumor. said my excited
and worried informants, was
q key reason the stock market
tumbled so severely the week
before last.
Well. as Is 50 often the case
with Wall Street rumors. this
one bore only q scant resem-
blance to the facts.
What Mr.. Martin did say,
according TO q man I've inter-
viewed who was at the meeting.
was that the Reserve Board was
not afraid we were In for q
serious recession.
What he did emphasize was
that the Central Bank was
dedicated more than ever to
slowing the economy's expan-
sion to a healthy pace that
would be sustained without
devastating imitation.
Control Is Aim
What he pointed out was
that II we could keep booms
under control. we could keep
busts under control, too, and
when declines came, they would
involve only minor unemploy-
ment and bearable losses in
stead Of towering joblessness
and a general crash.
And while he admitted the
Reserve Boards governors are
acutely aware Of the stock mar
ket's slump and they are CON
cerned" about Its impact on
psychology. they still are going

From the wings, Fran Gillian. blond
sprite of girl who wore glasses and car
ried a Cupboard as part of her costume,
glanced at the control booth, wondering
whether the sound man had missed the
directors cue. But almost instantly the
mental music started. with metro
nome ticking its relentless tattoo in the
background. Only when the show ran
short did you see her name, and the title
Production Assistant, at the tag end of
the credits.
From where she stood, off camera, she
could see Quincy's profile. His simulated
concentration didn't worry her, for in ten
weeks she had grown to know him very
well. She liked Quincy = liked him very
much = and she hoped he had enough
common sense to evade the celebrity rat
race, and the promoters and parasites,
once he had the million in his pocket. But
who ever heard Of genius with common
sense?
Oh, he'd seemed normal enough on
those evenings they'd gone out together.
Nice evenings, they'd been, evenings of
music, of exploration. of condolences.
She'd told him of her plan for show of

Quincy would be her ideal professor,
young, reasonable, now at ease with the
cameras. She had explained that he
couldn't expect a Sullivan or Garroway
salary, but if he wanted, he could have the
job.
Now, with less than half minute to go
before he won the million, she sensed that
she had lost him. In the morning, with his
name on the front page Of every news
paper in the country. he would be too
important, too big, to waste on an UNI
tested, low-budget experiment.
in his transparent, air-conditioned
vault, Quincy could not hear the music, or
anything. Realization came that he had
the million. Only of course it wasn't
really million. He had to pay Uncle
first. The income tax would be Sl56,82O
out of the first $500 900, and 81 per cent Of
the remainder. So he would be able to
keep only Sll5,l80. A MIR. Brundidge,
from the Internal Revenue Service,
was waiting expectantly backstage. Still,
Sl15,180 was more money than he had
ever dreamed of seeing. His take-home
pay at the library, where he worked in the
stacks two floors underground. was $3.50
a month.
Quincy looked up. His eyes were rested
somewhat, and he could make out the
faces of the people sitting in the front
rows. They all seemed to have their
mouths open, and they were motionless,
as if painted to their seats. He recognized
his sister, Louella, and his brother-in-law,

for his Adams apple TO bob. For nine
successive weeks Quincy had scaled the

leaps of learning. so that in most homes
his face was as familiar as the face on the
other side Of the breakfast table, and his
every mannerism and infection Of speech
held meaning. Before answering queS-

had become his trademark. His fans
watched his Adams apple. II was like the
