Unless the Administration decides to push
policies which hamper and retard business,
am inclined to expect increasing buoyancy, and
something approaching boom proportions. OF
course, that unless is a rather big if, and
this is campaign year; but my guess is that
the political situation is now more apt to work
in favor of business than against it.
With all the inflationary forces now exist
ing, business would certainly boom if left
alone Since the Administration is unlikely
to push extreme radical measures on the eve
Of election day, it would seem that these forces
are more apt to be released during the cam
paign than would otherwise be the case.

There is no need for comment on
Mr.. Watson's two-diamond response.
and Mr.. Maier's second-round bid OF
three spades was of course an attempt
to secure further information-he par
ticularly wanted to find out If Mr..
Watson could rebid his diamond suit
Mr.. Watson's rebid to four diamonds
was natural. A bid of three notrump
would be very bad as it would clearly
imply a stopper in at least one OF the
unbid suits.
Following Mr.. Watson's diamond re-
bid, Mr.. Maier Immediately jumped
to six spades. The success OF this
contract was, of course. not guar
