Sole maker of jail bars to spring itself from trade
Armco Inc will exit the jail bars business, the only U.S. producer of ribbed hard jail bars. Production will fade out in early 1970s as current orders are filled, allowing customers to find alternatives. Fries Correctional Equipment eyes alternatives from Bethlehem Steel or a Texas firm amid potential price drops. Future jails may use steelless or concrete walls, with tiny windows, for privacy and quiet. Armco will keep melting confiscated weapons in other furnaces.

Kansas critic blasts Hayden budget for underfunding growth plan
Anthony Redwood of the University of Kansas challenges Governor Hayden's FY 1989 economic development budget as underfunded. He says the plan would dilute years of progress, calling allocations pathetically low and urging funding that prioritizes Kansas Inc. and development projects over salaries. The hearing examined use of the Economic Development Initiatives Fund with support from Kansas Inc. and several chambers, while water projects sparked debate on funding sources and balance.

Fed Should Drop Interest Rates Say Economists
Top economists told Congress that the U.S. economy will likely avoid a recession in 1988 but would benefit from easier money policy. They warned that the Oct. 19 stock plunge lowers growth this year yet export gains could sustain the recovery. They noted inflation remains tame and urged the Fed to lower rates to reduce recession risk.
