...Salzgitter's coal, steel and iron-ore production in the private sector. Two new oxygen steel converters are to be built at a cost of $9,000,000 each to restore a balance between steel and rolling-mill capacities. The merger of Salzgitter's shipyards, Howaldtswerke of Kiel and Hamburg, with Deutsche Werft, a private shipbuilder, into a vast enterprise with combined sales of $200 million will take place Jan. 1. Büssing will cut its labor force by 2,000, and has been ordered to try cooperation agreements with other truckmakers that might eventually lead...
...Steiff poodle to dangle from the rear-view mirror, or more popularly a porcelain bud vase whose fresh flowers can be changed each day. The height of affection comes on the weekend when the car owner can give his lovely Gisela or Mitzi or Erika a bubble bath. From Kiel to Koblenz each Saturday afternoon, the streets are filled with men carrying sudsy plastic pails and chamois. Floor mats and cushions-many of them hand-embroidered by the car owner's routine wife-are assiduously cleaned, often by tiny, transistorized vacuum cleaners. A recent survey showed that...
...shooting up as fast as prefab bungalows, many orchestras must play under less than ideal conditions. The New Orleans Philharmonic, which performs in the Municipal Auditorium, often has to compete with the roars from a wrestling match on the other side of the wall; concerts in St. Louis' Kiel auditorium are punctuated with cheers at Hawks basketball games. In the mobile musicians' market, it is almost axiomatic that the best orchestras are those with the biggest budgets. Facing up to the demands of the modern orchestra, the Minneapolis Symphony hired a young concert manager who has a master...
...British delivered their first leviathan, the 106,000-ton British Admiral, to British Petroleum last year, and Shell Oil Co. has just ordered a 170,000-tonner from Harland & Wolff in Belfast. Esso has contracted for a 152,000-ton ship from Bremen, three 170,800-tonners from Kiel, and two of 170,000 from French shipyards. Swedish shipbuilders, whose modern yards last year captured second place from the British in total tonnage built, will deliver in April the 114,000-ton Sea Spirit for charter to British Petroleum...
Inconclusive Results. Last week, despite the hazard of winter storms with hurricane winds, two other rigs also drilled off West Germany for a German-American consortium. More rigs are converging on the area from as far off as Borneo, and shipyards from Belfast to Kiel are turning out drilling platforms to overcome a worldwide short age. All this activity is a result of the mammoth pocket of gas that was discovered in 1959 by Esso and Shell in the coastal Dutch province of Groningen near the German border. Seismic tests have since convinced oilmen that the North Sea may contain...
