Census Reports
Housing Storts
Steady in July
BY the Associated Press

Housing starts held steady
in July, the Census Bureau es-
timated today. The annual
rate of private non-farm starts
was 1889, 900 units.
This SeaSonally adjusted rate
was identical with the June
rate, which was revised upward
from 1851, 900.
The June and July level COM
pared with a May peak of L.
$4,000 and with a July, 1861,
rate of 1,318,000.
Housing starts was one Of the
few most publicized economic
indicators that failed to show
an increase in July. Gains in
industrial production, per-
sonal income and employment
were announced earlier.
The report said there were
wide regional variations in the
BODYBUILDING picture from
June to July. After seasonal
adjustment, private stocks were
down Is per cent in the north
east, unchanged in the North
Central States, down 4 per cent
in the South and up II per
cent in the West.

Former D. c. Firm
Suspended by SEC

The Securities and Exchange
Commission yesterday suspend
ed the broker-dealer registra-
ton of Lloyd, Miller g. Co.,
formerly of Washington, and
now of $50 Fifth avenue, New
York City.
The suspension was an
nounced pending a decision on
the ultimate question whether
the registration should be re-
voked.
The administrative proceed
ingS were based on staff charg-
es that the Lloyd Miller firm
violated the Securities Act regis
tration and anti-fraud provi-
sions in the offer of Class A
common stock of American In
ternational Savings and Loan
Association of Takoma Park,
Md.
The SEC ruled that evil
dence showed the stock was sold
in violation of the registration
requirement and that the firm
made false and misleading
representations in connection
with such sales and otherwise
engaged in a course of conduct
which operated as a fraud and
deceit on investors in violation
of the anti-fraud provisions of
the securities acts"

Idler declared in the semi

DurabIeGoods
Orders Surge
BY the Associated Press

In a turn around of a five
month decline, new orders to
manufacturers of durable goods
increased in July to about 5 per
cent above the June level.
This report was released
yesterday by the Commerce
Department. which also said
that sales of manufacturers of
durable goods increased 3 per
cent last month to regain the
record peak recorded in both
April and May.
The figures on new orders
were considered particularly
significant because they are
known as a leading indicator"
which normally declines in
advance Of a recession and
increases early in recovery
cycles.
After making adjustments
for normal seasonal fluctua-
tons, new orders increased by
$500 million last month to an
actual total of S15.6 billion. The
department said the increase
centered principally in trans
portation equipment, machinery
and primary metals.
Sales advanced by $500 mil
lion, after seasonal adjustment,
to an actual total of SIS billion.
A substantial rise in deliv-
cries of new autos dominated
the increase but most other
industries reported at least
moderate gains in sales.
Since new orders exceeded
sales in July. the backlog of
untitled orders increased for
the first time in recent months.

Controller Fovors
Laurel Bank Merqer

The weekly release from
Controller James J. Saxon
also enclosed a copy of a let
ter from Mr.. Saxon to the Fed
eral Reserve Board favoring
the proposed merger of the
State Bank of Laurel, Md. and
Equitable Trust Co. Of Mary
land.
Pointing to rapid growth Of
Laurel and the territory around
Fort Meade, Mr.. Saxon said it
did not appear that the pro-
posed merger will have an ad-
verse effect on competition.
"A rapid and substantial in
crease in population, with a
concommitant need for resi-
Dental and industrial financ-
ing, demands complete and d.
versified banking services" Mr.
Saxon declared.
The proposed merger will
provide such facilities to Laurel
without adversely affecting
competition. Competition
should be increased as the
local, independent bank with
alert management continues to
provide individual and person.
allied service to this COM
munity."
He said Laurel would be
served also by the Citizens Ma
tional Bank and a new branch
of the American National Bank
Of Silver Spring. which was
approved recently. The pro-
posed merger has been approved
by stockholders.

Republic Steel
Dividend Cut
Is Possibility

NEW YORK, Aug. II (AP).
Steel industry profit woes were
thrust to the fore again yester-
day with speculation that Re-
public Steel Corp. the third
largest producer, might reduce
its dividend.
Wall street buzzed with talk
Of the possibility after Thomas
F. Patton, Republic president,
said that such a step might be
necessary before the end of the
year.
In recent months, analysts
have closely watched financial
reports Of United States Steel
Corp. and Bethlehem Steel
Corp, first and second ranking
steelmakers, for clues as to
their dividend intentions.
The entire industry has been
in a slump lately, producing at
barely over half speed. The
July-September quarter is ex-
pected to be the poorest of the
year in earnings.
