Brisk 50 First Half
Expected by Business;
Textiles Also Hopeful
By Richord Fiske
Press Business Writer

ASSoeiofed PreSS BUSINESS writer
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-Good
business forecasts flooded the
market places this week and in
dustrial production lingere d
around a postwar high.
Defense output accounted for
q steadily growing share of the
Nations work. But civilian goods
weren't dragging their heels. Even
textile manufacturers. who have
been living with a hand-to-mouth
demand in recent weeks, saw signs
of better business ahead.
Cotton textile buyers inquired
more actively about prices on first
quarter deliveries next year.
Clothing Orders Expand.
Apparel makers worked on an
imposing stack of orders for fall
and winter clothing and reported
wool textile shortages were fore
ing postponement of deliveries of
many types of goods.
The consensus was that busi-
ness would be brisk through the
first half of 1858. There was some
what less pessimism for the days
after defense spending begins to
thin out.
Businessmen who are members
of the Commerce Departments
Business Advisory Council were re-
ported pretty much agreed on a
good outlook for the next six or
nine months at least.
Some admitted the Republican
victory had heightened their cpti-
mism. But they met in a closed
door session at Sea Island, Ga,
and there was no detailed report
of the discussions.
Controls Face Action.
There was widespread belief
that the election results at least
mean a more friendly attitude
toward business in Washington
with the possible result that this
means greater willingness to ex-
pand.
Merchants in some sections were
beginning to introduce Christmas
promotions and consumers, some
said, were responding. Late shop
ping hours and relaxed credit
terms were reported to be helping
business.
