What Is Coming In 1922, Forecast OF
Business Conditions, Prepared For The
Republican By Roger W. Babson

In discussing the general business
outlook, Roger w. Babson, promi-
nent business authority, outlined the
coming conditions as follows:
"Things look better than a year
ago. At this time last year we were
debating at the most rapid rate the
country has ever known. Every
thing was on the toboggan. Since
then the Babson Commodity Index
has dropped from $3.71 in June, 1920,
to $171 in August, 1921, a dgop of
81 per cent, and now stands at $1.S3.
Commercial paper rates have
dropped from per cent to 5L4 per-
cent. Business early in the sum-
ner touched the lowest point since
1915. For the last few months there
has been a slight recovery. This
means that the "wringing out" proc
ess has developed in a substantial
way; 1921 failures have totaled near
ly $700, ,o00, 900, more than twice as
much as any previous year in the
history of the United States. More
over, they are continuing at a very
high rate. inventories have been
drastically cut. Factories are closed
or running only half time.
"After the business debaueh we
had from 1916 to 1920, the best thing
that could happen was just such a
drastic initiation as we are expert
encng. The sooner a solid founda-
tion is established the better oft
business will be. Do not misunder-
stand this, however. Superficial stu
dents are saying that we shall i'm.
mediately vault into an era OF good
business again, but statistics do not
corroborate this view. After the
orgy of initiation above referred to
it takes time to correct the situation
Thus far we have swung about halt
way around the inevitable cycle OF
events.
"We have passed through periods
OF declining stock prices and com
modify prices, and to some extent
declining real estate prices. We are
already getting the first taste OF low
money rates. Considering all things,
we may be said to stand approx
mately as noted by the arrow in the
diagram above.
"The Babson chart has recovered
from low of 29 per cent below nor
NAL to it's present position of II per
cent below normal. The recovery
has been rapid. 1t probably will not
continue at such a lively rate. Att
er the recent seasonal Improvement
e shall probably have a reaction.
and then another upturn. Of course
some lines which have already been
severely Debated, such as textiles,
Heather products and packing will
improve, but other including coal,
steel and oil viii decline. Sales the
early months of the year will be

(5) In a moral and religious sens
the people are getting nearer I,
the earth.
"Just a word concerning these Iat
two points. There is no doubt tha
the administration is going to d
everything possible to bolster al
things and make everybody happ.
as the year moves onward. Such
process would work a decided stim,
ulant into the situation later in thl
year, even though the year 40
whole may not show up any better
than 1921. Again, the awful wave
of spending, high living, crime ane
irreIieion incident to 1919 and 1926
is passing away. This is fundament-
al to the whole business fabric. When
we get back to the old fashioned
virtues Of thrift, honesty and true
religion we can look forward to good
business.
"The successful concerns Of 1922
will:
(a) Get their prices as near to 1918
as possible.
(b) Be ready for severe eOmpstI.
ton.
(e) Cut down overhead.
(d) Increase turnover.
(e) Exercise real saIesnaaTiship.

1922. but don't forget the old saying
Of He that seeketh, findeth.' There
will be business, and the man who
goes after it agsressivsly will

lower than 1921, but some Improve
nent should bring next fall up so
that the net result will show 1922
to be about the same as 1921, ex-
cept we shall be further along to-
ward the brisk business which must
eventually return.
sour hindrances now stand as fol-
lows:
% Conditions in Europe are still
chaotic. We are all grateful for the
Improvement since the disarmament
conference began, but in the ordi
nary times Europe has taken over
half our exports. At present she is
more interested in selling to US than
buying.
(2) Our agricultural areas are hav-
ine the worst depression in history.
Particularly is this true of the corn
belt where crops are worth little
or nothing and where the things the
farmer buys are still very high.
(3) There is still dishezrtening
lack of balance in other lines, and
between wholesale and retail prices,
wages and profits.
(4) Nearly every industry is suf-
fering from excess capacity deVel-
oped during the war and from bur.

FADs, FOOLS AND THEIR MONEY

A Chicago daily of Monday, this

year is now being poured into the tills
of radio dealers by the American public.
according to sales estimates recently
completed in the leading centers of dis
tributions of the country.
And out Of this huge sale campaign
are springing 10000 new radio fans a
month. Their growth has been so rapid
that the one-time amateur radio opera
tors have been forced to coin new
word to describe the newcomers. They
call them 'novices.
The only parallels to the radio bust.

recent rush TO the oil fields and the
boom times in the motion picture in
dustry. When the entire country is in
the throes of depression and with many
other industries running on part time.
or not Mt all. radio manufacturers are
working on twenty-four hour shifts in
an apparently hopeless endeavor to
meet the public demand.
