NAPM for April = 52.8

Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) at 52.8%, Growth in Production,
New Orders, New Export Orders

"The overall picture is one of continuing growth in manufacturing
activity during the month of April," added Ore. "Production
and New Orders remain quite positive and provide an indication that
the manufacturing sector is gaining strength as we move toward the
middle of 1999. Employment decline has slowed as the growth in the
sector gains momentum. Commodity prices are declining at a slower
rate, but only a few commodities appear on the up in price list."


NAPM's Price Index attained its highest level since December 1997,
but still failed to indicate higher prices overall. NAPM's Price Index gained 6.7 percentage points to 49.9 percent, up from 43.2 percent in March.


NAPM's New Export Orders Index for April continued positive for the third consecutive month following fourteen months of decline (an index exceeding 50 percent) with an index of 51.6 percent

Construction Spending for March = +0.5%
