Show Income Up Eleven Billions We are somewhat intrigued by the prediction that the national income for 1941 will be about $11,000,000,000 more than the $74,000,000,000 recorded last year. This is interesting, even to a half-baked economist, and more than interesting to the citizens who expect to share some of the extra dollars that are floating around. The economic experts say that the American farmer will receive, upon the basis of the present outlook, out-look, a cash farm income of about $10,600,000,000, or about ten per cent more than in 1940. Moreover, the 1941 income will nave greater buying power than the $11,221,000,000 that the farmers farm-ers received in 1929. |
