Business and Industry Week Summary by Walter Breede
Walter Breede surveys a buoyant week with steel labor tensions settled and boosts in production. Auto output rebounds as July quota targets rise, GM stock split spurs Wall Street activity, and retail demand remains strong especially in women's wear. Employment reaches new highs. June jobs up and unemployment down, with high school and college students boosting the labor force. Steel price rumors hover with minor inflation risk, auto and appliance makers weighing price moves, and several mergers and acquisitions updating corporate moves. Daily newspaper circulation hits a six month record. Pfizer launches a new anti-arthritis drug Scrane.
