Judd INSURANCE AGENCY Phono Midway 89 Are We In a Recession? - By RALPH ROBEY Never has there been as much discussion es today on whether we are in a recession. Some of it perhaps the majority, arises from the fact that this is an election year, and the business trend has been made into a campaign issue. But much of the discussion arises from analysts and business men who are peronally worried and uncertain. Those who believe that we are in a recession have many facts they can cite. For example: Production, as measured by the Federal Reserve Board index, has declined the past two months and is now four percent below last January. Steel is still operating at only a shade above half of capacity and the date of an upturn keeps being postponed. Housing starts are well below last year. They showed an increase in August, but in September they fell to the lowest level this year. Inventories are still being rise, and so does employment The Federal Reserve System is following a policy of relative money ease and interest rates have declined sharply. These are just some of the favorable factors, but they are enough, in our judgement, to warrent the conclusion that we are not about to enter a recession. (114-60- ) liq- uidated, and this backs up across the board, hurting both productin and employment.' Business investment in plant and equipment has stopped increasing, and at best is leveling out and it may be on a slight decline. profits are rather and there is no prospect of an improvement in the near future. Many industrial and raw ma terial prices are soft, and concessions have to be made from quoted prices in order to move the goods. In general business is shipping Corporate sharply more down, than it is getting in new orders, which means that backlogs are declining. Gross national product, which is the total monetary value of all goods and services produced in the nation, declined in the third quarter. The decline was less than one-hal- f of one percent, but it was down not up. Now that is an impressive list, and if one goes to individual industries the number of items can be increased substantially. None the less, there are many persons who firmly believe that we are not in a recession, and not about to enter one. Among these are, in the Administration, Secretary of the Treasury Anderson Secretary of Commerce Mueller, Secretary of Labor Mitchell, and Raymond Saulnier, chairman of the Presidents Council of Economic Advisers. All of these, of course, ars political appointees, but they also are honest men and would not consider shading their conclusions for campaign purposes. What leads them, and many private analysts, to a more optimistic view on the outlook? Again the list is too long to give in its en tirety, but included are: The decline in gross national product was caused primarily by the continued liquidation of in ventories, and that process has just abut run its course. Reail trade is holding up well and will set a new record this year and be still higher next year. The new automobiles appear to be well received by the public and next year will be better than this. Steel production will start to increase in the near future it has to because inventories have been reduced just about as much as possible. Housing starts will begin to increase almost immediately and over-al- l construction will make another record next year. Farm income is on the rise, and will be appreciably better for 1960 than earlier appeared possible. Fear of inflation has been eliminated, which is one of the factors tending to hold down investment in plant and equipment Government spending is increasing, at both the federal and the state and local levels. Exports are increasing appreciably more rapidly than imports, and our international deficit is becoming somewhat less important personal income continues tog Glsndala liens Holes The Relief Society held their Conference Sundayvening with Stake Officers.
