ROTARY CLUB SPEAKER
VIEWS TRENDS IN 1947;
TRAVEL PROGRESS TOLD

At its meeting a week ago the
Laurel Rotary club was addressed
by B. M. Harris, president of the
Yellowstone banks at Laurel and
Columbus, on "What About 1912"
He recited statistics and at times
made predictions concerning trends
in production and trade in the COM
ing year. He saw many adjust
ments.
In the spring of 1929 silk broke
in Japan; in the fall of 1916 furs
broke in the United States, and
Solly Eitingon, New York's largest
fur dealer, failed for rs million. Is
this the beginning of lower prices?
the speaker asked.
Regarding farm production, in
1916 all U. S. farmers broke pre-
vious records in production, 2 per
cent over 1912 peak and 26 per
cent over the 1882 average. Corn
was 3.3 billion bushels against 2.e
billion; wheat, 1,116 million, up 81
per cent, and only cotton and rye
were down. Federal statisticians
estimate 1947 prices will be down
at least 8 per cent.
AS to sales, Gimbels marked jew
elry down rs per cent; Montgomery
Ward sliced toys 80 per cent and
soft goods 80 per cent. There were
store-wide c~learances throughout
the country. Dollar sales were up
10 per cent, but most increases
were caused by mark-ups, not in
creased volume.
The federal debt was reduced $22
billion from the balance on hand
the Eighth war loan. Tax
reduction is likely only in the lower
brackets through larger exemptions.
Surveying foreign trade, Harris
said eve own so per cent of world
shipping; Great Britain and Russia
will compete vigorously with u.s."
Strikes will continue, but indus
Try employment in hours and pay
oils will be up. Many industries
low operating on the 40-hour week
will return to the longer week.
Harris predicted that small sub
;istence farms will continue to in
rease in price, though large COM
nercial farms may sell for less.
Building will show considerable in
rease with advancing prices. Rent
nay increase and the country may
zee the beginning of the boom which
hould have started in 1916.
People who moved to war time
obs are not returning TO their
ormer homes, for more than three
ourths are staying in the areas to
which they moved, or r moving
lsewhere. The reason: better liv-
1g, more money. Result: the swol-
en- areas will not shrink much.
The movement to the suburbs
tarted before the war and was
iven impetus by the war when t
eople had to go to the country to ]
a place to live. Many liked it I
nd will resist shifting back.
The farm population is gaining as s
zen return, but experts think the |
trend will resume and the
