18 Tuesday, May 22,1990 The Sallna Journal Market again reaches new high during spring rally NEW YORK (AP) The atock market Monday reached a new high for the fourth time in the past six sessions, getting more mileage out of its Wail Street spring rally. The Dow Jones average of 30 industrials climbed 24.77 points to 2,844.68, surpassing the previous closing peak of 2,831.71 on Thursday. Advancing issues outnumbered declines about 9 to 5 in nationwide trading of New York Stock Exchange-listed stocks, with 997 up, 538 down and 486 unchanged. Volume on the floor of the Big Board came to 166.28 million shares, against 162.52 million in the previous session. Nationwide, consolidated volume in NYSE-listed issues, including trades in those stocks on regional exchanges and in the over-the-counter market, totaled 201.14 million shares.

Interest rates were mixed to slightly lower in the credit markets Monday. Yields on long- term government bonds hovered in the 8.68 percent range. But analysts said hopes persisted that rates could resume a more emphatic decline. As measured by Wilshire Associates' index of more than 5,000 actively traded stocks, the market increased $31.57 billion, or 0.93 percent, in value. The NYSE's composite index of all its listed common stocks added 1.73 to 195.28.

Standard Poor's industrial index rose 4.48 to 417.23, and 500-stock composite index was up 3.36 at 358.00. The NASDAQ composite index for the over- the-counter market gained 4.58 to 452.89. At the American Stock Exchange, the market value index closed at 359.36, up 3.04. New York Exchange NEW YORK (AP) no. tional prices for New York Stock Exchange issues PE Last Chg.

Investors hope to resurrect bankrupt Minneapolis firm By GORDON D.

FIEDLER JR. Business Editor MINNEAPOLIS The city of Minneapolis will know by the end of next month if it has a future in the recreational vehicle manufacturing business. Local and out-of-state investors hope to resurrect the bankrupt El- Dorado Motor Corp. and begin limited production of recreational vehicles by July 1. The investors have formed a new company called Honorbuilt Industries Inc.

and expect to present an acquisition plan to the bankruptcy court within two to three weeks, said Robert Stewart, Honorbuilt president and former ElDorado chairman. Among the list of investors are Stewart and Wichita car dealer Rusty Eck, who has been an El- Dorado dealer for about eight years. He is one of three ElDorado dealers two are out of state involved as investors. The group also includes former ElDorado officers and managers. "Rusty Eck and myself, along with a few others, formed an investor group to acquire certain assets of ElDorado Motor Stewart said.

The assets include a portion of the manufacturing plant and some machinery and equipment. Stewart declined to reveal the amount the group has raised or how much of the former company the new group wants to buy. The investment will be assisted by a $300,000 Community Development Block Grant awarded to the city. Honorbuilt will get the money in the form of a low- interest loan from the city if the acquisition plan is approved by the court. The new company hopes to succeed where ElDorado failed by concen- "Ultimately it (El- Dorado) couldn't afford some setbacks." Robert Stewart investor trating on fewer, lower-priced models of its class A and mini- motorhomes.

The company expects to employ between 80 and 100 people, a fraction of the number during El- Dorado's peak. "The old ElDorado company was on a pretty fast growth track," Stewart said. "Ultimately it couldn't afford some setbacks." Those setbacks included poor acceptance of the recreational vehicle; model of the Starfire, noted for its aerodynamic front end. Also, the. company failed to accurately predict the popularity of large motorhomes with below-floor storage.

Stewart said the new firm plans to produce a limited number of Starfire motorhomes designed specifically for commercial use. "Starfires have been built for mobile medical labs (and) mobile radio stations," Stewart said. 'The company plans to commence production as a relatively small company looking at the low- to medium-priced end and size of both the class A and mini-motorhome." Stewart said the new company will continue efforts to distribute orhomes in Europe, a project started, under the ElDorado banner. The company shipped about 20 different vehicles to Scandinavian dealers who were to distribute them- throughout Western Europe. "We continue to stay in close communication with them," Stewart said.

Congress may tighten farm loan forgiveness WASHINGTON (AP) Congress may be getting fed up with a 3-year- old law giving the Farmers Home Administration a free hand in forgiving some big debts, including about 100 of $1 million or more. Bills in both the House and Senate would clamp a lid- on the amount of bad debt that FmHA could excuse and would tighten some other loopholes in the agency's farm lending program. The free hand was provided by Congress in the Agricultural Credit Act of 1987, which was aimed at streamlining and liberalizing debt- collection policies of FmHA, an Agriculture Department agency. By last Nov. 30, the most recent tabulation available, almost 16,000 delinquent farm loans totaling nearly $2.8 billion had been forgiven by FmHA under the 1987 law.

The forgiveness debt owed to FmHA was authorized by Congress on grounds that in many cases the assets held by borrowers are worth far less than the face value of the original loans. Land values, a mainstay for farm credit, plummeted in the 1980s, wiping out much of the previous net worth of borrowers and reducing loan collateral. The FmHA as of Nov. 30 had written off nearly one-third of the $8.8 billion in overdue loans. Last week the Senate Agriculture Committee approved a 1990 farm bill provision aimed at FmHA credit policies, including a $350,000 lid on debt forgiveness.

A similar measure in the House would impose a $250,000 limit on the FmHA practice. The administration wants the" credit loopholes plugged, and the Agriculture Department says it favors a $250,000 lid on FmHA loan' forgiveness. Roland R. Vautour, USDA under! secretary for small community and rural development, told Congress earlier this year that "huge amounts are being forgiven because there is no dollar limit in the law." Vautour, who oversees FmHA operations, said the average of all loan write-downs was $172,857 and that the average write-off was $205,674 per loan. "Most borrowers would be unaffected if the maximum amount that could be forgiven were set at $250,000," he said.

Union wants to protect retirees KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) United Auto Workers union President Owen Bieber on Monday outlined a five-point bargaining plan for this summer's Big Three contract negotiations, including a qualified call for inflation protection for hundreds of thousands of retirees. But Bieber, delivering the opening speech at the union's three-day bargaining convention, didn't to say whether that protection should be through lump-sum payments, or cost of living adjustments. In the past, company executives and union officials have said such a contract provision could be extremely expensive and could mean benefit cuts for active workers. Bieber kept open the possibility of pushing for inflation protection when bargaining with General Motors Ford Motor Co.

and Chrysler Corp. begins in July. "While I can't tell you the exact formula by which we will reach our destination this year, I can tell you absolutely that we will achieve the goals we all share of improving current benefit levels and ensuring those gains are protected against inflation in future years," Bieber 1 said Monday. Bieber ticked off a list of bargaining priorities for when the union sits down with the Big Three shortly after Independence Day. For the first time in 11 years, union contracts with GM, Ford and Chrysler expire at the same' Sept.

14. Topping the list were job and income security, followed by wage and benefit increases..
