conditions than a year earlier,
but heavy late May and June
rains arrived in time to bring
early season prospects up to the
level of 1943 except in a few
north central counties.
Later some unusually severe
hail and wind storms in central
and eastern Montana did severe
damage in concentrated areas.
In south central Montana other
hail storms injured sugar beets
and beans. Sawfly damage was
heavy in parts of northeastern
Montana in spring wheat fields
where much of such damage
was not apparent until harvest,
due to the good stands of grain.
The value of the main crops
in 1914 was $179, 688, 900 COM
pared with the 1943 value of
$188, 1877 900 and the 1882 av-
erage of $66,106, 900.

STOCK MARKET

Al. The rails will show the
greatest decline during 1945, be-
cause the airplane and ship
building stocks are already
pretty much debated.
AZ. The heavy chemicals,
steelS and motors may hold
their own during 1915; but
consumer goods will do much
better.
43. The safest stocks to buy
considering value, income and
Safety-will be the merchand-
izing stocks, especially the chain
store stocks.
"A. 1914 saw a large increase
in the demand for peace stocks
with a decline in war stocks;
but 1945 will witness them both
moving more or less together.
Switching has been over-done
in most cases.
As. 1945 will continue to wit
ness creeping initiation, although
the big movement toward in
flation will not take place until
the next business depression
which will follow the postwar
prosperity.
BONDS
IS. Though bank loan rates
should continue to have an up
ward tendency, interest rates in
general will remain low through
1945, since the money supply is
now 20% above normal and
government controls will con-
tinue.
At. Anticipating the expected
decline in Federal taxes, 1945
should surely see a falling off
in the price of most municipal
and probably other tax-exempt
bonds.
48. The highest grade corpora
ton bonds will decline during
1945.
40. Investors will give much
more attention to diversified
ton and staggered bond matur-
tiles during 1915.
so. More public utilities will
be taken over by municipalities
and Authorities" during 1945.

BABSON PREDICTS

is. Farmers will start in 1915
to work again for legislation on
their parity program, due to
fear of a collapse in all farm
prices after the war.
TAXES
16. Taxes will not be increased
during 1945 and some will be
reduced; in fact, some nuisance
taxes will be eliminated alto
gether.
II. The Federal Debt will con-
tinue to increase during 1945.
Is. Whatever is done about
taxes, the cost of living will
continue to rise during 1945.
10. Providing jobs for return
ing soldiers will be the big
political football of 1945. I am
not now prepared to forecast
what will happen IN this con-
nection.
20. Through a coalition of
Republicans and Conservative
Democrats, we should have a do
Congress during 1915.
RETAIL SALES
81. The volume retail sales
will show a decline during 1945.
Prices of ladies' apparel and
general luxuries will suffer,
while grocery sales should be
higher.
%. The total dollar retail sales
should be about equal to 1914
with an increased demand for
wooden and cotton textiles for
civilian use.
%. The best cities for 1s45
business should be:
Altoona, Pa.
New York, N. Y.
Cleveland, Ohio
Davenport, Iowa
San Jose, Calf.
Wichita, Kansas
"a. There will be a great Stam-
pede in 1945 to get rid of the
make shift ersatz goods which
have been made to take the
place good merchandise. Thus
1945 will witness many mark
down sales" of unrationed mer-
chandise.
IS. Wise will be those manu-
facturers, merchants and con-
sumers who realize that post
war competition will be terrific
ad, therefore, withhold purchas-
eS until 1916.
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1944-12-28
FOREIGN TRADE

The United States will own
over 5000 of the worlds ships
in 1945.
q. There will be an increase
in free exports with the Freed
Countries, but Lend-LeaSe ex-
ports will decline.
%. We will make England
and Russia large postwar loans
provided they spend the money
in the Uuited States.
20. Both the British Empire
and Russia will go into the
competitive foreign trade market
during 1915; many cartels and
government monopolies will be
in operation. I, therefore, fore
cast higher prices for coffee,
cocoa, sugar and many other
articles for which we are alb
solutely dependenv upon foreign
countries.
80. No Central Bank will be
organized nor will the stabliza-
ton of foreign currencies be at
tempted in 1945.
LABOR
81. The Little Steel Formula
will be amended during 1945.
80. Industrial IN p oyment
during 1945 will be off To in
hours and off 1870 in pay rolls.
80. The building of a few new
autos and new houses will be
resumed during 1915.
"a. Many Industries, now OPP
Grating on a forty-eight-hour
week, will return to a forty =
hour week during l945.
IS. Wage rates will not de-
cline, but "take-home" income
will be less.
WAR OUTLOOK
SO. The greater part of Ger
many's army will collapse be-
fore the German planting sea-
son opens in the spring of 1945.
Before Surrendering, Germany
will try poison gas.
81. Japan will not hold out as
long as most people think. jap
an will collapse within six or
twelve months after Germany
collapseS.
38. If Stalin's health contin-
ueS, he will be the worlds most
powerful man in 1945 and may
dictate the peace terms, es-
pecially for the Pacific.
80. Sometime after April, 1945,
Russia will join Tor threaten
to- the Allies against Japan
but only after the promise of
territory privileges and a huge
loan.
40. The markets may witness
a ~"communiStic scare" during
1945; but they should soon re-
cover thereafter.

REAL

81. Suburban real estate will
be in much greater demand
with higher prices during 1945.
So. City real estate should
hold its own, excepting in the
congeSted war areas where de-
clines may set in.
So. Small productive farms
will continue to increase in
price; but large farms may sell
for less in 1945 than in 1914.
81. Building will show a con-
siderable increase. contracts will
be up $50, but prices may be
a little lower due to increases
in lumber and cement produc-
ton.
SIS. There will be no changes
in residential rents during 1945.
Sc. Real estate will be helped
by Congress ceasing to induct
any more men into the armed
services after June 80, 1945.
POLITICS AND POSTWAR
PEACE
ST. The uncertain political
factor of 1945 will be Mr.. RoOSe-
welt. People will soon fear that
he may resign before the next
Congressional Elections either
on account of i'll health or to
become head of a Peace Com
mission or new World Organi-
1ation.
SO. Our foreign headaches will
become worse and more fire.
quent during 1945. What we are
going through to reorganize
Italy will be repeated in many
other countries.
SO. The Latin American
honeymoon has passed its peak
The attitude of Argentina will
extend to other countries and
our South American troubles
will increase during 1945.
60. 1945 will see more religious
interest, including more church
going, than did 1914. People
gradually are realizing that
without a Spiritual Awakening
no peace or other plans will be
much good. Nations cannot be
depended upon to cooperate ano

MONTANA CROPS
LARGE IN 1914

Montana crops production was
again large in 1914, but hail
storms and other damage fac
tors prevented final harvests, in
most cases from equaling or
exceeding those of 1943, said
the Helena office of the U. s,
Department of Agriculture this
week.
Corn, sugar beets, winter
wheat, alfalfa seed, sweet clover
seed, apples and cherries full
filled their earlier season pros
poets and came out above their
1943 out-turns. Below their 1913
production were oats, barley,
spring wheat, flaxseed, peas,
beans, potatoes, mustard seed
and hay.
