NEW YORK. Ang. 10 (AP)
American business is simply
coasting now, impatiently
awaiting the outcome of the
nationwide steel strike, the
National Association of Pur-
chasing Agents reported.
Most purchasing executives
surveyed by the association re-
ported their companies are
keeping new orders and pro-
duction schedules at existing
levels. Prices, too, are holding
stable.
The purchasing men agreed
that IF the strike is settled
promptly, industrial production
will quickly resume its rise, 4"
the association said. IF the
strike is of long duration, it
will adversely affect business
for the balance Of the year"
The associations survey
turned up these points OF gen.
eral agreement:
l. The steel strike settlement
will set the general price pat
tern for the next few months.
IF steel holds the line, other
industries will be under pres
sure to avoid increases. If the
price of steel goes up, other
items will follow"
2. Industrial buyers are re-
luctant to build backlogs. They
are not willing to increase
stocks as a hedge against future
price rises. They figure most
items will continue in plentiful
supply.
3. Steel generally is available
despite the industry shutdown.
Some items are in short supply
but enough steel is on hand to
satisfy demand for another two
months.
a. The increasing cost of bor-
rowing money has not damp
ened most companies expan-
sion programs.

a word as any for the prospect

years the so-called low-pricec
autos gained 400 pounds, grew

power.
The new ones, first on the
American passenger car scene
since Ford brought out Edsel

They're not "small"s cars.
They're simply smaller"
Industry, according to the
Associated Press Ben Phlegar,
considers the next decade a
golden challenge" There are
others who call it the decade
of the great gamble-will the
public accept some austerity
and greatly reduced horse
power well enough to pay the
manufacturer for his fantastic
re-tooling costs?
The current Newsweek maya
zine says "austere interiors and
S simple dashboards, 13-inch
wheels and a price tag of about
$1,975 will be common char
acteristics" of the new compact
cars.
No one has said officially
what that price tag is; whether
it approximates the factory's
suggested list price" with a
half dozen or more extras and
taxes to come or whether you
can drive it home for that
figure.
There is no argument that
many of the voices in the
clamor for a small, American
built car" had small price in
mind, something comparable to
the tags on many of the i'm
ports. which, 10 years ago were
rarities. Mr.. Phlegar notes that
the chances right now are one
in 10 that the family garage
houses an imported car.
Chrysler announced yester-
day that the Valiant will be
marketed through the Plym-
outh-De Soto-Valiant division.

The committee, which has
delved into the implications for
the Nation, inherent in the
problem, pointed out:
1T costs more than $40 mil
lion to build a cargo liner in
the United States today and
about SIS million to build a
similar ship in the shipyards
of Japan. Germany, Holland
and other foreign countries.
This is due in large measure
to the higher cost Of American
labor and materials"
Aid Called insufficient
The committee commended
the old so per cent contribu-
ton from the Federal Gov
eminent directly to United
States shipyards to put them
on an even shipbuilding cost

SUFFICIENT.
1t said: THE theory was
that this would adequately
make up the difference be-
tween domestic and foreign
construction costs. For two
decades this has been so. But
today ships can be built in the
major foreign shipbuilding
centers for less than half of
what the same ships would
cost in American yards"
The Secretary was advised
by the committee:
THE success of the present
