A sharp decline in new pro-

mercial building has followed
President Kennedy's success in
forcing the steel industry to re-
verse its price-increase deci-
sion, the magazine Engineering
News-Record reported in New
York today. =
The estimated volume Of new
commercial work in April
dropped to $167 million, half Of
the March volume and the
smallest for any month since
May, 1860, the magazine said.
Proposed industrial plans
dropped to $112 million, the
lowest April figure since 1858.
The drop may be merely q
coincidence, but If 1t is due to
business fear Of administration
pressure, the probability is that
businessmen in basic industries
hesitate to initiate plans for
new facilities until they are
assumed they have clear con-
troll of the pricing function,
Lack Of such control can
stretch the odds against a prof
table return on new invest
ment, the magazine declared.
