EXPERTS SEE
HOLIDAY JUMP
FOR BUSINESS
Many Lines Expected
To Operate Near
Peaks of 1929
Copyright 1886 by United Press

Copyright 1886 by United Press
WASHINGTON, Nov. II.
(UP) A holiday business
boom, hitting 1929 prosperi-
ty levels and rising 10 per
cent above last year, was forecast
today by department of commerce
officials.
Assistant Secretary Ernest G.
Draper said preliminary reports
from all fields indicated many
lines of business would operate
at 1929 peaks. He based his con-
tention on improved conditions,
lessening of unemployment, higher
earnings and distribution by scores
of corporations of millions OF dol
lars in dividends, and increased
wages and bonuses.
Major factors in the improve
ment picture:
/. Divided distributions by many
corporations because of increased
earnings or desire to escape the
1886 revenue acts provisions for
a heavy levy on undistributed sur
plus.
2. Increase in cash income of
farmers from $7,201, 100000 last
year to an estimated $7,750,00O, 900
this year, although it is still below
the $l0,417, 100000 in 1929.
8. Estimated 8,975, 900 unemploy-
ed as against 100000 in 1888.
4. Estimated rise in national in
come from S53,500, 100000 in 1885
to 100000, 100000 or more this year.
5. Industrial production at its
highest peak since 1880 and rising,
Business is continuing at ra-
pid rate" Draper said. "Undoubt-
edly part of the acceleration is due
to the increase in dividend pay
ments. The laggards in industry
appear to be construction, capi-
tai equipment and export trade
but even in these fields the trend
is upward.

TO llnQ common ground Tor negOtl-
ations brought new evidence that
the strike deadlock is crystalizing.
F. M Kelley, head of the joint
strike policy committee here said,
in reply:
THE unions cannot arbitrate
fundamental issues. These issues
include the six-hour day for long
shoremen, the eight-hour day for
marine cooks and stewards, prefer
ential employment for union men,
bers in all branches of work, cash
overtime instead of time off for
seamen and the uniform manning
scale for marine engineers"

permissible by us unless we are
