The system of the fictitious "work er's management" was introduced in the Yugoslav industry in 1952. but industrial units have always remained in the hands, and under the direction of, the government.

Ex amples in the held of chemicals: phthaiic anhvdridc, sulfur, formalde hyde, phosphoric acid. Civilian de mand is at a record high; and, of course, defense requirements have been rising as the U.S. escalates its military effort in Vietnam. One reason exports haven't grown at a faster rate during the past year or so is that domestic demand has absorbed nearly all U.S. output, leaving relatively little merchandise for overseas shipments. The Federal Reserve Board already has moved to curb demand by making money tight and costly. But still there is intense pressure on the Administra tion to slow things down by nscm policy measures. The worsening U.S, trade position can only add to that pressure. Dollar Deficit Widens: A particular ly galling aspect of the trade situation --irom the Administration's viewpoint -- is Ihe harm it is doing to the If A. balance-of-payments position. There already is concern among the nation's money managers that the direct costs of the war in Vietnam will push the U.S. payments deficit from last year's h i . 3 billion to as high as 52 billion in '66. With the trade surplus shrink ing, this could be even worse. The war, of course, has forced U.S, industry to go overseas for some or the materials needed to meet defense needs. And the extreme tightness in the money market has left commercial banks with comparatively little funds for overseas borrowers -- including those who want the money to pay for goods from the U.S. At midyear, com mercial bank loans to foreigners totaled nearly Si 00 million less than at the end of '65. U.S. bankers con firm that foreign customers are not getting all the money they want. Expediting Exports: The Adminis tration has already started to carry out two plans to help ret erne the trace- surplus trend.

General Dynamics calis divestiture order ` u n j u s t i f i e d 1'; U S , la u d s re espso city r u li n g General Dynamics Corp. (New York) lawyers are studying last week's federal district court decision ordering the company to divest its Liquid Car bonic Division (Chicago). GD calls the decision unjustified, says it has "every intention of contesting it vigorously." In a 98-page decision, the court ruled that CD's '57 acquisition of Liq uid Carbonic violates Section 7 of the Clayton Antitrust Act (which deals with lessening of competition and creation of monopolies) and Section 1 of the Sherman Act (which deals with restraint of trade). GD was given 60 days by Judge John Cannella to subrnit a plan for di-'testiture.

There is no chance of the bill winning Con gressional approval this year. But observers predict that it will be passed in '67. I to Automotive air-pollution controls for large vehicles operating either on gasoline or diesel fuel are under consideration by federal officials. Controls so far are limited essentially to passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. They become effective as cars roll off the assembly line in the fail of '67. The Public Health Service now is seeking methods of setting stand ards for oxides of nitrogen, not now covered, and of extending carbon monoxide and exhaust hydrocarbon standards to trucks and buses-- along with an initial round of controls on diesels.

The units-- one to be operated by British Oxygen at Maydown, Northern Ireland, and the other by British Geon Ltd. (Barra South Wales)-- each have a 30,000-long tons/'year capacity. British Oxygen's output will be sold "over the fence" to Du Pont; by-product ethylene front the plant will probably feed a 50,000-1.t./year ethylene dichloride unit slated for Maydown. British Geon will use its new ethylene source for vinyl chloride. Monomer output will be upped to 130,000 l.t./year by '67. Hedon Monomers Lid. (a DistillersCelanese venture) is also building a Wulif plant at Lull. Considerable economies are expected to stem from the naphthabased Wulif units. Some British sources estimate that the initial United King dom acetylene cost from naphtha will be 7-7.5d/lb. Acetylene from the old carbide route costs 8.5-l0d/lb., depending on depreciation factors. Future British naphtha prices, however, are a question mark; in the past year the naphtha price increased from Si 8 'metric ion to over $22.don became of growing demand as a manufactured gas feedstock.

The company has set un a separate Industrial Process Control Division to take care of the fast-grow ing business formerly handled by groups within GE's big information Systems Division. GE took over Bunker Barno's share of the process control computer market in May '65 by buying access to BR's patents and imow-how when 31 closed up shop. At that time. BR had an estimated SOM of the pertoleum and chemical process control computer business. Now GE is one of the leading vendors in this segment of the com puter industry--but, although business is booming, the company has been losing money on its process control equipment. Indications are the new division will soon be operating in the black. i: Can your low tem perature plasticizer system p a s s th e if r i g i d g u i l l o t i n e '13 t e s t ?

'65 FDA ordered a halt to test ing of DMSO on humans. At that time, it's estimated, nearly 50,000 per sons had been treated with the drug in the U.S. alone. It has become clear that FDA's crackdown on DMSO is one of the most unpopular moves the agency has ever made. Physicians who beiieve that the compound has great clinical promise are afraid that large-scale testing niav never be resumed. They also question whether FDA is any longer in a position to make an ob jective assessment of DMSO. However that may he. DMSO is on the v,elf 'for now. Some small test programs ere w k operating, untier FDA supervision. Five `Sponsors" are being allowed to use DMSO on some 100 patients who have life-threatening discuses--e.g., multiple sclerosis and scleroderma.

But last week an FDA spokesman said the agency knows of no evidence of sufficient .significance to supoort wider use of DMSO as an experimen tal drug. And there the matter stands. Stanley Jacob--now engaged in an imal expenmentation on the use of DMSO an an adjunct in the treating of arterial diseases-- says he hopes some "washback" of data and clinical experience from Europe may help bring a break in the present stale mate. Indeed, Europe will be holding the attention of DMSO experts in the months ahead. Early in November a conference at the University of Vi enna will be devoted to the drug and to European doctors' experience with it.

These motors (up to A h.p.) are operated on direct current and have made "cordless" batteryoperated appliances a practical house hold reality. Bui PM motor applica tion is not limited to DC operation. Where light weight and small size are important, a rectifier diode can be incorporated in the PM motor cir cuit so that AC can be used. Since electric power in an auto is limited, and auto makers are very cost conscious, the relatively cheat) ceramic magnetic motors have taken most o f the car business. Ford M o to r feeis that ceramic magnets are so im portant to its operations that it may put in its own magnei-makinc fa cilities. The shortage of copper now makes PM motors look even more attractive to the automotive people. In a win dow lift motor, for example, two-thirds of the motor's copper is in the stator coils that supply the magnetic livid Such copmmwound eiectromaenets can be replaced with ceramic magnets. The magnet is cheaper, and there's no labor cost for winding the. field coil. Ceramic Uncertainties: plot ail ce ramic magnet makers agree on the best recipe for a magnet. Westinghouse holds a natenr fid.a. 3.113.9117') for sul fate-modified strenttum ferrite compo sition. It claims magnets made of this have the highest coercive force of any of the currently popular produc tion products. Westinghouse says that in laboratory experiments with sulfatemodified strontium ferrite, it has gone up to as high as 5.300 oersteds and repeatedly averages 4,500 oersteds. Allen Bradley Corp. (Milwaukee) largely discounts the strontium fer rite magnet, at least for the near future. And it also rates lead fer rite, the third ceramic type of higher coercive, quite low. AB says the lead compound is difficult to handle, al though it has high degrees of residual induction. Size for size and weight for weight, the price of the basic raw materials (barium or strontium) is incidental, says Indiana General; processing ac counts for costs.
