NAM Sees Double
Income By 1916

A two-fold increase in total
national income without resort
to initiation is well within the
reach of Americans in the next
% years, according to the Ma
tional Association OF Manufac-
turers.
Reporting on recent research
on the nations potential for
maintaining an ever rising
=. standard of living for a rapidly
growing population. the NAM
said that projections of recent
and long-term trends lead 10
the conclusion that the United
States can support much
larger population than il now
has. and on a level substantially
abofe that now enjoyed by the
average citizen.
Herbert j. Woodall. president
of Woodall Industries, Inc, and
NAM regional vice president,
who announced the figureS local.
ly, said that the Associations
economists have estimated that
the national income, which was
S29l.6 billion in 1852, "can rea-
sonably rise to 5000 billion by
1875"
Citing a 1875 population figure
OF 1870 million persons taken from
government estimates, the NAM
said that a national income OF
5000 billion, based on a vastly
increased production, would mean
per capita income OF about
$4,000. compared to the 1882 per
capita income OF sl,860.

There's a big new boom within
weekend travel range of Wash
ington.
Along the coast of bay and
ocean, houses are springing up
where only sand dunes and scrub
pine stood before.
New highways, the fabulous
Bay Bridge and money in the
pocket have combined with
steaming summer weather to
throw the boom into high gear.
Thousands of Washingtonians
have invested in beach-area
property in the last several years.
Developers say the surface hasn't
even been scratched. Distance
appears to be no real factor, for
some developments are $50 miles
or more away.

Building Booms Along Bay, Ocean

In the last year. many hun
dreds of cottages and elaborate
homes have been built within
weekend committing distance.
Others are now under way or will
soon get started.
Along with the burgeoning new
communities have come motels,
shopping centers, restaurants,
other enterprises. Owners of
homes completed this year all
ready have had chance to lease
them for a month or two to help
finance the cost. al
Some of the most noticeable
growth has come as a direct re-
suit of completion of the 4-mile
bridge across the Chesapeake
Bay at Sandy Point, Md.

ago brought the stretch of ocean
