MARKETS and FINANCE

U.S. Steel

CLEVELAND (APT - Regard- less of what happens in the auto industry. the second half of this year shotlld bring good business to the steel market. Steel magazinel says.

The car industry now is produc- ing at a record pace in anticipa- tion of I strike early in the sum- mer as the CIO Auto Workers make a stand for a guaranteed an- nual wage.

Steel magazine conceded that if the auto industry dropped out of the steel market for a long time. the effects would be so widespread that other consumers also would need less steel. But the magazine predicted it was unlikely the auto- makers would be out of the mar- ket for long.

Annually. the car manufacturers used about a fifth of the steel produced in the United States. Now they probably are using some- what more than that. Steel mills

are operating at 88 per cent of rated capacity. so a complete loss of demand from the auto industry would cut that to about 71 per cent. More likely. said Steel. the car industry probably would cut its steel intake in half. leaving a national rate of around 78 per cent.

N. Y. Stocks

NEW YORK (AP) - A major drive ahead last week sent the stock market to an all-time high.

Records of the great bull market of 1929 were eclipsed by the for- ward surge, and prices continued to climb to the final bell at the end of the week.

The Associated Press average of 60 stocks was up 82.50 on the week and finished at 5159.70. At that level. the average is 32.00 higher than the 1929 high of 6157.70 reached Sept. 3. 1929.

The week was a curious affair. An opportunity was offered for a

grand break on a major scale when the Russians changed prime ministers and engaged in some spectacular sword-rattling (atomic stylel. That opportunity was ig- nored.

Brokers generally took the at- titude that buying was based on a new confidence in the market. and a chant was heard now and again that the l7-month-old bull market swing had been-confirmed again by the market's action.

The five most active issues on the New York stock exchange were Electric and Musical Industries up 1. Hupp Corp. up 1l.'., Corliss- Wright off lh. Avco Mfg. up iii. and Faircbild Engine up Vs.

Canadian stocks closed mixed. International Nickel gained be Fri- day and Hiram Walker advanced Va. Canadian Pacific was off is, Mcfntyre was down ')6 and Dome Mines dropped Vs.

On the American stock exchange Giant Yellowknife gained VI: and Lake Shore lost Vs.

Post Stamp Production

By H. I.. JONES l Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA ICPT-Behind everyp Canadian postage stamp lies a story of much planning and hard

All stamps begin as an idea which may concern a person such as the Queen. ii great event or an industrial subject such as a hydro- electric station.

Until recently. Canadian stamps were reproduced in o s t I y from photographs. Now, because the post office wants to encourage many Canadian artists, many are produced from sketches or draw- ings. Two types of stamps are is- sued-regular issues to carry the greater part of the postal load and commemorative ones to mark some event of historical interest.

On lovier denominations. ordin- ary issues all bear portraits of the sovereign. On the higher. play is given subjects such as electric p o w I r. industrial development. Canada's farm lands and military. machines.

LENGTIIY PROJECT

Portraits of the Queen appear on the set of stamps currently in use. A four-cent stamp issued in 1953. commemorates her Corona- tion. Her portrait also is on all ordinary issues from one to six cents I

Look what went into that Corn- nstion commemorative; .

The post office decided on Coronation stamp in April. 1952.! soon after the Coronation date was i set. Emanuel Hahn. Toronto sculp- tor. was asked to create a profile plaque of the Queen and design the stamp.

.Then artists of the Canadian Bank Note Company of Ottawa.- which has printed all Canadian' stamps since 1935. interpreted the artist's design by hand engraving on soft steel. Design details were settled in conferences of company officials with W. J. Turnbull. deputy postmaster-general. L. .1. Mills. director of financial services for the post office. and J. R. Car- penter. superintendent of the post- age stamp division.

DELICATE TASK

Engravers. working with infinitei patience under magnifying instru- ments. cut the design in reverse on a stamp-size piece of blank steel. Every delicate line and groove which gave depth and form

the " ' S ” design was cut by hand.

Proofs of the stamp were taken

from the master die and carefully

icheckcd. Some changes were or-

dered and the die altered. The color chosen was purple. Then the master die was hard- ened and impressed at a pressure of 20 tons per square inch on a soft stecl roll. The roll. known as the working die. in turn was hard- ened and used to transfer the de-

.sign 400 times to a soft steel print-

ing plate.

READY TO PRINT

The plate, then comprised 400 replicas of the master die. each correct in every microscopic de- tail. it also was hardened and placed on a rotary press.

Specially-manufactured p a p e r was prepared so it would take an ink of last color and great tenac-

.ity from the plate.

Perforating machines handled the next step. After inspection and cutting into sheets of 100 stamps. the new issue was shipped to post offices all over Canada for sale beginning the day before the Coro- nation.

That was almost 14 months after the planning of the new stamp be- gan.

Trawler lmpoTl's Are Restricted

OTTAWA (CF) -The fisheries department does not permit in- discriminate importation of used trawlers by fish meal firms in

e .'viai'itimes. Fisheries Minis- ter Sinclair said Friday.

He said every fish plant is permitted to import one used trawler. if they want to import more. they must match them with Canadian-built trawlers, he said in the Commons.

Mr. Sinclair replied to Clarie Giilis ICCF-Cape Breton South) who asked whether the govern- merit refused a German firm a permit to operate a fish meal plant and affiliated industries in Louisburg. N.S.

He answered that such permits are issued by provincial author- ities. Mr. Giilis then asked who- ther the government's refusal to allow importation of fishing traw- lers prevented. in effect. the un- identified company from setting up.its plant.

Mr. ,Sinclair said the govern- ment does not want to allow one plant to import any number of trawlers without matching them with Canadian-built boats.

Oil Companies To Spend 400 Million This Year

DALLAS. Tex.. (AP)-Oil com- panies plan to spend M00.000.000 in Canada this year. the Petrol- eum Engineer magazine says.

The magazine says that Canada has become the third largest oil producer on the western hemis- phere. with 3.000.000.000 barrels of proven oil reserve. Natural gas re- serves were set at it trillion feet.

N. E. Tanner. president of the Trans-Canada Pipeline ,Company, was quoted in an article as saying Canada has more than 6.000 prod- uclng wells. Only one well has been drilled for each 170 square miles of productive oil areas. com- pared to one every 12 square miles in the United States.

"This in itself gives some idea of what the future development in Canada may be." Tanner said.

Canada's average daily oil pro- diictlon was figured by the mag- azine at M0.00fl barrels.

Plans AIm;sT Ready For New A-Power Plant

NEW YORK. (AP)-Consolidat ed Edison Co.. of New York. is about to announce plans for con- struction of the first U. 8. atomic power plant relying mainly on private financing. it was learned Thursday.

An electric industry source said that Consolidated Edison will build a Itll,000 to 130.000 kilowatt plant fired by nuclear fuels.

Last November the company purchased a fonner amusement park site .on the Hudson river. south of Peekskill. N. Y.. which an official said "might be suitable" for an atomic plant.

The oountryls first commercial atomic power plant is being built at Shlpplngport. Pa.. by the gov- ernmentfs Atomic Energy Com- mission and the Duquesne Light Co.. Pittsburgh. This will be a so.- mo-ltilowatt plant.

Costa Rica Sends Out SOS

PARIS (Reuters) - Costa Rica Friday launched an "S 0 S to the world." saying it was mcnaccd with aggression from outside its frontiers.

The appeal. issued through Costa Ricnn diplomatic missions through- out the world, followed up the Latin American republic's application to the Organization of American States for guarantees against out- side attack.

Dr. Francisco dc Mirandes Mir- anda. Costa Ricnn minister in Paris. said the appeal was being made "to alert public opinion to the immediacy of the danger faced by Costa Rica."

vasion weighing on our country" .emanated from Otilio Ulatc. n

Post Office Brings Native Art To Stamps

By I. L. Jones Canadian Press Staff Writer

OTTAWA (CP)--The post office. with Canadian artists already do- signing many of its postage stamps now is giving thought to getting more Canadian native art and more color into the issues.

Canadian stamps now carry plo- tures of polar bears and pulpmak ing plants as typical Canadlana. Before too long they may depict Canada's Indians and Eskimos and where and how they live. And these stamps may come out in multi-colored issues instead of the single or double colors of today's stamps.

Canada's stamps once were de- signed mostly from photographs. But Governor-General Massey. then Chancellor of the University of Toronto, recommended in the 1951 Massey royal commission re- port that Canadian institutions should encourage this country's artists.

POPULAR COMPETITION

The post office then announc " a competition for artists. asking them to submit stamp designs. Payment was 5300 or more for suggested subjects in industry. the outdoors and animal life.

The competition paid off. It now is a continuing affair from which postal officials hope to build a "bank" of designs into which they can dip when a new stamp is needed.

They are considering more color and broadening the range of sub- jects to include not only the na- tives themselves but the works of art they produce. Officials envisage these being produced in a four- color natural range.

PRAISE AND SCORN

The post office stamp designs have earned a lot of praise over the years. was proud of

three wild life stamps issued In 1953. The two-cent polar bear in blue. three-cent moose in brown and the four-cent bighorn sheep in black drew acclaim from stamp collectors and from editors of stamp magazines. .

The polar bear was designed by John Crosby. an artist at the Na- tional Museum. Ottawa. The other two were by Emanuel Hah, Tor- onto sculptor.

A follow-up series showed a beaver. a walrus and a sea bird. the gannet.

QUEEN'S PORTRAIT

But the department got plenty of criticism about two issues of Queen Elizabeth stamps. One was the four-cent Coronation commemo a- tive of 1953 and the other a regular issue bearing the Queen's likeness on one to five-cent denominations.

People complained the portraits didn't look like the Queen. They said her check was shrunken in the three-quarter portrait; in the profile portrait her upper tip was too short.

Post office officials said the dif- ficulty stemmed from the fact that line-engraving process, rather than a photo-engraving, was used.

In the line process every stroke. dot or feathery touch is cut by hand on a "master die" of steel from which the stamps ultimately are printed.

Subsequently. a new regular is- sue was put out in the one to five- cent category and. while it also was line-engraved. the portrait of the Queen was much improved.

ABSTRACT ART

The post office entered the realm of slightly-abstract art in 1952 and still feels pleased about the ven- ture. The stamp was a 20-cent brown forest products issue created from a design by A. L. Pollock. Toronto industrial artist. It showed a paper-making plant with a Douglas fir tree in outline to one side. From the tree a scroll ex- tended across the stamp to an out- line of the plant.

Public reaction was favorable. Officials were pleased that no one wrote them to point out that no Douglas fir is twice as high as

it appeared on the stamps. They said it apparently was accepted for what it was. a simple design tell- ing a lot even though it was ab- stract.

The department didn't have such a happy time with its fur resources stamp. a 10-cent brown showing an Indian woman drying beaver skins in front of a wigwam. Scores wrote in pointing out that the skins were bigger than the woman and that a man peering around the wig-
