Economy Rises
al Record Rate
In Sd Quarter
81 III. Associated Pres.

The American economy doomed
along at q record rate Of 1892
billion Q year during the third
quarter Of 1855, President Eisen-
|hower's economic advisers re-
ported yesterday.
A sharp upswing In personal
spending accounted largely for
the increase Of $7.25 billion in
the July-septenber rate Of pro-
|duction Of goods and services.
II the pace continues. the
total 1855 national product--a
key gauge Of economic condi-
ltions would come close to $500
billion. This would compare with
slightly more than $91 billion ct
the end Of the depression 16
years ago. and would almost
double the immediate postwar
figure Of $209.25 billion In 1916.
$s65 Billion In 1883
The high for any past year
was 1865 billion In 1858. Last
year the dollar value Of all goods
and services was 1857 billion.
President Eisenhower has said
the national economy should ex-
Ipand to $500 billion q year In the
next decade. Some economists
contend that's too low.
The quarterly estimate was
prepared by the Presidents
Council Of Economic Advisers
and sent to the Senate- House
Committee on the Economic
Report.
It followed q Commerce De-
|partment report earlier this week
that bolstered hopes voiced by
Secretary Of the Treasury Hum
|phrey for q budget balancing this
fiscal year which might lead TO
tax reduction next year. The
Commerce announcement set
total earnings Of individuals and
businesses during the April-June
quarter at . new high rate Of
1921 billion q year.
Public Spending Jumps
Public spending for personal
consumption gave the economy
Its lustiest boost in the third
quarter. jumping So billion from
the preceding three months TO
an annual rate Of $256.5 billions
Federal outlays rose 5000 mil
lion to a clip Of $45.4 billion,
with an increase in spending for
national security offsetting a
slight decline In the rate Of other
Government expenditures. The
pace for State and local govern
advanced nearly o half
billion to S30.1 billion.
These figures did not include
foreign investments. subsidies to
the States and some other items.

pinning 'the business label
on it.

vember to review what actions
Federal agencies are taking TO
reduce their number Of employees.
The heads Of the departments
and agencies win be called be-
fore the group to disclose what
steps they are taking to trim
Jobs.
The Georgia Democrat pre-
dicted that the Defense Depart
ment's action In ordering $4,000
civilian jobs abolished win be
followed by similar job-reduc-
ton moves by other departments
and agencies.
Mr.. Davis declared that such
reductions primarily can be
achieved the painless way
| Through attrition-not filling
many Of the normal personnel
vacancies that occur each year.
Other committee, members also
expressed the view that firings
are not necessary TO reduce en-
lployment.
Administration officials say
they know of no Government
wide move to set q job-reduction
quota for each agency. They
said the Defense Departments
action was based on Defense
Secretary Wilson'S conclusion
that various defense operations
can be conducted with q smaller
number Of civilian workers. They
declared it would be unfair to
many other agencies to impose
similar arbitrary reductions,
since each bureau has its own
personnel problems.

ONE THIRD INCREASE
IN ASSISTANT CASES
COAST GUARD 1854

A year-end tabulation of assist
ance cases handled by the Fifth
Coast Guard District Rescue Co
ordination Center in Norfolk was
announced today by the Com
mander, Fifth Coast Guard Dis
trict.
The tabulation shows an in
crease of 416 cases over the 1,240
handled in 1858, by the District
which extends from the Delaware
border to South Carolina.
By the end of the year two
major maritime disasters occurred
in which the Fifth Coast Guard
District participated. In October
the ore-laden freighter NOR
MACKITE sank 40 miles east
southeast of Cape Henry with 81
of her crew being lost at sea and
in December, the motor vessel
SOUTHERN DISTRICTS, an LIST
converted into a freighter, was re-
ported missing-with no trace be-
ing found up to the present time.
Total assistance cases for the
year ending December, 1854, re-
suited in the Fifth District saw
ing 270 lives and an estimated
$23,778,034 in property.
The breakdown of the cases
shows ia assistance cases CLASH
fled as major ones. Minor cases
totaled 1888 and consisted of
those where neither immediate
danger to life nor major property
damage was probable.
The types of assistance render
ed were varied and included such
things as freeing stranded vessels,
towing disabled vessels to safety,
open sea landings of Coast Guard
aircraft to rescue survivors from
downed aircraft or sunken ships
or to transport persons for ur-
gent medical attention, dropping
equipment and supplies from air.
craft to persons in peril, and
searches for persons lost or I'M
reported at sea. One particularly
interesting case was the safe re-
moval of the Is crewmen from
the freighter OMAR BABUN
which stranded on the North
Carolina outer banks on May IA,
1854.
There were 500 attempts to as
sist made by district units but by
reason of being recalled, due to
the need for assistance ceasing,
no Coast Guard physical assist
ance was needed. In addition, the
Coast Guard rendered many serv-
ices not formally classified as as
sistance cases. Included in this
category are such things as relay
ing medical advice to ships at sea
assisting other Federal govern
ment agencies and municipal, as
sisting to locate overdue craft by
utilizing only communication IA
cilities, or warning ships and air
craft of dangers to navigation.
