Equipment For Saie

(Continued lrom Page 31) were about even with July on a seasonally adjusted basis. Aside from the motor vehicle industry, which was in the midst of a concentrated model changeover, new orders for durable goods were again higher.

In the iron and steel industry, new orders have been rnoving upward in recent months, reflecting some renewed buying on the part of steel users as consumption remains fairly high and stocks of finished steel continue to decline. Incoming business is substantially above the April low point.

Steel mill operations advanced further in early September with output in the second week of the current month close to 1.7 million tons. This was the hiehest rate since mid-lVlay but still below th; 1.9 million weekly average for the year to date. As more steel users complete the process of inventory adjustment the drag on steel production will gradually diminish.

Private nonfarm housing starts in August rose to a I.5 million seasonally adjusted annual rate. The August starts were almost as high as they were in April and May of this year.

Retail sales showed little change in

Put These Golumns To Work For YOU-Today!

August on a seasonally adjusted basis following a good rebound to a high point for the year in July. Nondurable goods sales continued to rise but durable goods dropped back again mainly because of an easing in automobile sales. Department stores slales in August were off a little from July though in late August and early September there appeared to be some acceleration in the pace of buying in such stores.

Unit sales of new cars slipped in August from the high July rate but there were reports that supplies-in terms of the available tlpes and models-were to some extent a factor in the sales decline.

Retail sales in the first two months of the third quarter were running almost Il2 percent higher than the average of the second quarter. Durable goods are up about 2 percent from the second quarter, paced by a larger-than-average advance in lumber, building and hardware stores. Nondurable goods stores scored a I percent advance, with general merchandise stores showing a somewhat better-than-average performance.

Conswner I nstalhnent Cred,it

The use of consumer installment credit has been advancing along with increased consumer expenditures, especially for durable goods. The excess of new credit extended over credit repaid has been comparatively large, however, only since this spring. In the period from April through July seasonally adjusted credit outstanding increased by almost $5 billion at an annual rate. Measured against disposable income the recent rise in credit use has been somewhat Iess than occurred at a comparable stage in the two previous cyclical recoveries.

The proportion of automobile dealer dollar sales financed by installment credit has shown little growth since the mid-fifties. By way of contrast, credit extensions relative to sales of other durable goods, general merchandise and apparel have shown a fairly steady increase, reflecting the growth of new credit facilities such as revolving credit systems of general merchandise stores.
