LOOKING AHEAD
By G w. BABSON

BABSON PARK, Mass, July IL.
A book has been written by me
and published by Harper & Broth
ers entitled, Looking Ahead Fifty
Years" In this book, l discuss
various subjects, such as the fu-
ture of investments, the develop
ment of new industries. the
changes in farming, the outlook for
small businesses and the posi-
bility of labor rule.
Numerous readers have written
to me saying, II will be dead and
gone in fifty years. Tell me what
you expect during the next five
years" Of course, this is a more
risky thing to do. I, too, will be
dead before the end of fifty years,
while I hope to be around for the
next five years! But here is how
I now feel about the immediate
future.
Expect Low Rates
I expect continued low interest
rates. Hence, since money doubles
in fifteen years at 5 per cent,
should you not seek 5 per cent in
terest with reasonable safety rath-
er than speculate ever on the
'1ong swings of the stock market?
Of course, you can't pick 5 per
cent investments off BURBERRY
bushes. You must take time to
hunt them UP and find them. Ger
tainly, you should not be satisfied
with bonds that pay less than 4
per cent interest unless they are
either tax-exempt or convertible.
