P the Associated Press. NEW YORK, September 10.—The Associated Press index of eleetric power production, with 1929-30 taken as 100, declined for the week ended mmber 5 to 115.7 from 117.4 in the preceding week. The drop was due to the Labor day holiday, which occurred one week earlier in 1935. A year ago the index, which is ad- justed for seasonal and long-term trends, stood at 100.8. The range for recent years follows: 1936. 1935. 1934. 1933, -- 1174 1055 974 919 -- 1020 941 919 802 Actual production, as reported by the Edison Electric Institute, was ap- proximately 2,100,000,000 kilowatt hours, a deeline of 1.7 per cent from the preceding week but an indicated gain over the same week last year of approximately 20 per cent.

NEW YORK, September 10.—Pub- lic offering of 60,000 shares of com~- mon stock of El Paso Natural Gas Co. was made today by a syndicate headed by White, Weld & Co. at $20 s share.

AMOSKEAG PROBE DELAYED BY OFFER U. 8. Investigation Is Postponed as Officials Discuss Proposed $5,000,000 Sale. By the Associated Press. BOSTON, September 10.—A Federal investigation into the defunct Amos- keag Manufacturing Co. was post- poned yesterday because officers of the corporation were in Manchester, N. H,, discussing an offer of more than $5,- 000,000 for the huge plant, Federal officials disclosed. Peter C. Borre, New England coun- sel of the Sabath investigating com- mittee, which met to investigate the bond holders’ reorganization of the | bankrupt firm, announced postpone- ment, saying Frederic C. Dumaine, treasurer of the company and liquidat- ing trustee, was conducting represent- atives of New York interests over the Amoskeag property. The two other trustees appointed by a Federal court judge, Joseph P. Carney and W. Parker Straw, he add- ed, were with Dumaine. Last week the Amoskeag Industries, Inc, a group of Manchester citizens, offered $5,000,000 for the plant. The trustees formally accepted the offer | upon a down payment of $500,000. Borre declined to disclose the iden- tity of the new bidder for the mills, which were one of the largest in the which were among the largest in the workers, Figures What They Mean BY A. A. PATTON, Associated Press Statistician. NEW YORK, September 10.—While rumbling war talk echoed over the world and European governments bought practically the entire produc- tion of their airplane factories, Amer- ican manufacturers sold more planes 7 { to private individuals in the first half this year than to the Army and Navy combined. A recent tabulation by the Depart- ment of Commerce reports 1,363 air- craft turned out in this period, against 851 in the same months a year ago. The six-month total exceeded output for the entire year 1933. The 446 two-seater cabin plan listed by the department make up the largest single group. ‘This class is used almost exclusively by individual pilots, either for pleasure or as a part of their business. Buying Power Increases. Rising sales in this range, retailing from $1,500 up, is attributed to the up- swing in incomes accompanying indus- trial recovery. Although at the best level since 1930, civil aircraft produc- tion is still a far cry from figures of predepression days. In 1929, for in- stance, 5,357 private ships were sold, 3 the large majority to aviation enthu- = | siasts ‘The improvement is seen by aviation authorities as giving promise of a new lease cn life to owners of hundreds of | {. airports, big and little, that dot the country. Built in the halcyon days, when thousands of the winged craft were being bought by a prosperous Nation, these fields soon felt the pinch of depression. Although military orders do not as- i sume & primary role in advancing the Industry, Army and Navy planes ac- count for a steadily growing portion of domestic output. In 1929 it was about 10 per cent; last year, 24 per cent, and in the first six months of 1936 approximately one-third. Defense Orders Soar. ‘The defensive arms of the Govern- ment took 407 airplanes in 1936, the largest number in years, compared with 677 in the full year 1929.
