State Highway Spending Set to Rise 15 Percent in 1961
New York reports state highway department contracts will climb 15 percent to a record 4.5 billion this year, driven by federal aid acceleration and streamlined contract control. Interstate projects lead with a 28 percent surge to 2.2 billion, while regular federal-aid highways rise 14 percent to 1.7 billion and state-only funds fall 17 percent as local matches grow.

Oil May Force Drop In Coal Price In East
East Coast coal prices, already weakened by residual oil competition, are expected to fall further if residual oil import quotas aren t reduced for the third quarter. Purchasing Week predicts continued high residual fuel oil imports despite industry pressure. Last March Eastern bituminous prices dipped after higher import quotas. New England congressmen push to keep quotas high as they say restrictions raised oil prices. Outside the East, coal prices look stable with 1961 usage about 16 percent below last year as exports and steel activity rise.
