stirring sight for all citizens to
realize that the very car, painted

state, had reached this small, pro-
vincial city, to prove their graft

NEW YORK, Nov.7 - Since the
war, crying the business blues
has become a chronic complaint
with many Americans. Despite
the string of boom years, econo-
mic pessimists have periodically
hit the headlines with forecasts
of calamity. In 1949, they said
gloomily, production would drop,
unemployment would climb. But
as the year draws to a close it
becomes apparent that the pro-
phets of doom have concentrated
a bit too much on the dak spots
in the economy. Though produc-
ton has dipped somewhat below
previous peaks, it is still high.
And while unemployment has in
creased somewhat, employment
has stuck close to the record
height of 10000, 900. Incomes
have topped peak 1948 marks, and
sales of many manufacturers have
chalked up new highs.
The impact of the steel and coal
strikes, of course, has taken some
of the starch out of the economy.
