CLEVELAND, Dec. 81 (Ap)

CLEVELAND, Dec. 81 (AP)
- Sales in the Woodworking
industry hit a record high this
year. but earnings were disap-
pointing, Steel Magazine re-
ported today.
The Woodworking weekly
said sales jumped to $l66 bill
lion, an IL per cent gain over
the $l49.1 billion last year.
The previous record was $l49.6
billion in 1860.
Walter J. Campbell, editor of
the magazine, pointed out.
however, 1862 earnings were
below what most executives be-
lieve is necessary to maintain
facilities in efficient condition,
give owners a fair return on
their investment and to enable
the growth that would provide
more jobs.
Mr.. Campbell noted a rising
tide OF confidence for 1868
among industrialists. citin g
these examples:
Economists who until two
months ago almost we're unan-
imous in predicting q recess
sion next year have reversed
themselves.
2.-Steelmakers who In the
autumn months saw ingot out
put limited TO "a 10 IS million
tons next year now expect the
output TO reach at least 100
million tons.
3.-New orders for durable
goods have been rising since
September.
Business inventories are
low and will be rebuilt after
the new year begins.
Consumer spending Is
proceeding at a high rate and
the belief grows that an in
crease In capital spending will
follow.
The total result Is a rising
tide OF confidence among in
dustrialists that 1868 will be
a better-than-expected year -
that II may resemble 1855. a
year that improved as II went
along" Campbell said. Some
believe 1853 will be the fore
runner for the much-talked-
about and long delayed surge
OF the Sixties"
Despite the New Year holi-
day, steel production this week
Is expected TO be higher than
the estimated output OF Ia mil
lion tons last week. the mag
azine said.
Year-end dullness has settled
over the scrap market. with the
result that steel's price COM

Comments on
COEVAL LIFE
BY VictOriO Acosta VeIascO


STEPPED in strict Castilian
traditions for almost four cen
turtles, Filipinos are logically in
fluenced in their behaviour by
the high standard of personal
conduct that Spanish "Urbani-
dad" prescribes for the citizens.
One such tenet in the Span
ish code of conduct is that
of adherence to the principle
of 'palabra de honor" (w0rd
of honor. The Spaniard, and
the Filipino by long associa-
ton with the former, have a
high regard for any promise
that they make. A promise,
whether written or oral, is a
word of honor that must not
be taken lightly.
+
In the confused confluence of
circumstances and environment
tai factors of present-day liv-
ing, we are sadly dragged to an
unfortunate behaviour where
we throw our promises out the
window and are gone with the
wind. Selfishness, conceit, ego
tism and false appraisal of our
importance lead us to a breach
of social etiquette and personal
conduct.
We thus forget that we
have given our word of hon
or that must be redeemed
within reasonable time. Our
Spanish tutors called it "paIa-
bra de h o n o rs, one of the
tenetS in the national eur
banidad."
