Vault Upward
During Month
BY RICHARD H. HOENIG
Associated Press Financial Writer

n9oS~AobCd EASoo EAihhOhhA WIltCE
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The
stock market carved out its big
gest monthly advance of many
years in November.
The Associated Press average
Of go stocks vaulted 22.4 points,
from 2l8 to 24O.4 for the
month.
The Dow-Jones Industrial
Average advanced 1888 points,
from 589.77 to $3.50.
Standard and Poor's 500
stock index Jumped STA points
to 62.26 from 56.52.
Veteran market technicians
were unable to recall any sin
gle month that produced a
comparable gain.
Analysts had no trouble in
listing the reasons for the
spectacular performance even
though no one had anticipated
/ 1t.
Several of the major factors
were the disappearance of talk
about a recession and emerg-
ence Of optimistic predictions
for the economy, the strong
and successful stand Of the
United States in the Cuba
crisis and the temperance of
the general public in the mar
ket place.
Other influences on the mar
ket during November included
the rise in short interest to a
record peak, the off-year elec-
tions and a lessening Of inter-
national tensions at points
other than Cuba.
The latest week produced
more evidence Of the brighten
ing prospects.
The most active issues on
the New York Stock Exchange
were General Dynamics, up "a
at 312s on $4,000 shares;
Sperry Rand. up 11a at 14h
on 454,500 shares and Chrysler
unchanged at 701s on 25l, 200.

Steel Outlook

Declining steel dividends q.
Tagging demand for steel in the
face of a boom auto year &.
steel prices being cut in con-
trast to the attempt Of the in
dustry last spring to increase
prices drastically shrink
ing profit margins. and inten-
styling competition ...
What is wrong2 Why2 What
is the outlook? Here, Roger
Blough, chairman Of United
States Steel Corp. answers
some questions about one Of
the Nations basic industries.
Porter: Which is the most
important force behind the re-
cent steel price cuts-competi-
ton from foreign steel produc-
ers or competition from manu-
facturers of rival materials or
competition among the steel
companies themselves?
Blough: Lower priced for
eign competition has certainly
been a very major factor, but
the competition among steel
companies has been Just as
important, possible more so.
The impact of competition
from aluminium and plastics
has been more on new prod
ucts than on prices. We would
eventually have developed thin
tin" (Which competes with
aluminum). but the competi-
ton may have influenced the
timing.
In the case of foreign steel
the lower prices often simply
reflect the much lower hourly
labor costs in foreign countries.
Also. it has been charged that
foreign steel is being dumped"
into this market by foreign
producers who are selling it for
less here than they do at home.
We have anti-dumping statutes
in this country. and I under
stand that the Treasury De-
partment already has started
some investigations of this.

When ! turned SO, began to
think seriously about my fu-

One day ! picked up a copy
Of The Wall Street Journal. /
always thought it was a paper

surprise! In the pages of that
amazing newspaper / found
just the help / needed. l found
ideas on how to keep my taxes
down = ideas for earning more
money-ideas for getting more
value for the money / spend.
/ also found some good ideas
for the company l work for.
"Why didn't somebody tell me
about this sooner?" l said.
/ subscribed to The Journal,
and it began to put me ahead
right away. During the past
few years, my income has in
creased from $4,000 to $14,5OO.
This experience is typical.
The Journal is a wonderful aid
to salaried men making $500

Costs Rise Abroad

Porter: Now that costs and
wages are rising rapidly in
other countries, won't this tend
to equalize prices and help the
steel industry regain lost mar
kets?
BlOugh: In percentages Eu-
ropean prices are going UP fast
er than here. but steel is sold
in dollars and cents.
The fact is our total en-
ployment costs, including
fringe benefits, are roughly
three times costs in the Com
mon Market and six times costs
in Japan. We must hold down
our costs. improve our plants
and equipment. develop more
ingenious management tech
niques.

ment OF the outlook then2

lens, I am more optimistic
now than I have been In sew

Porter: How are you going
to meet the competition from
foreign steel importsP
Price Cuts Decried
BIOugh: One way we cannot
meet 1t is by reducing prices
below costs. Foreign steel prices
run from $40 to $40 per ton
under our domestic prices on
the same products. Taking a
composite average price for all
types Of steel products, the
current price of steel in the
United States runs about $170
per ton. Last year steel indus
try profits on sales (after
taxes) were So per cent, about
SO a ton.
Clearly, we absolutely could
not reduce our prices enough
to meet the foreign competi-
ton.
One thing we can do is offer
better service, such as prompt
deliveries and expert technical
guidance on manufacturing
problems. We already have a
large edge here. We also can
offer quality which is second
to none. Then, we must keep
developing new products. We
have more and better research
centers in the steel industry
today than ever before and the
products coming out of them
are constantly increasing in
usefulness and value to the
consumer. We can develop
new types Of steel to serve COM
pletely new purposes.
Finally, we must improve our
steelmaking plants to compete
with foreign steel-making
equipment. which is m ostly
new since World War II. We
have been having trouble on
how to pay for this invest
ment but I think we are be-
ginning to make progress.
