Business After Elections
~ SYLVIA PORTER

Right now, business is roar
ing along near or at capacity in
most fields, and pushing us
toward new peaks are:
The fabulous spending by both
big and medium-sized businesses
on new plants and equipment
spending which will stay way up
in 1857:
The obvious uptrend in wages
and salaries-an uptrend which
is sure to continue in 1857 be-
cause many pay raises already
have been pledged;
The swelling spending for new
roads. schools, all types of pub
lie projects-which will be a new
prop under prosperity;
The signals that spending by
Government on both defense and
nondefense items will be higher
next year than this-a third key
prop.
These are basic prosperity fac
tors-rising spending by bust
ness, rising spending by con-
sumers. rising spending by
Government.
It's not a. certainty. of course.
There will be "wiggles" in the
trend and it would /. be folly to
deny there could be upsets.
But the Nation is in q cycle
of expansion. The Government
is pledged to use every weapon
imaginable to maintain it. His
tory and economic forces all
around us telegraph the mes
sage of business dEowth in 1857.

A year from now, the odds are
that business will be operating
lat a higher level.
I could have written this
sentence weeks ago-before we
knew the outcome Of the cleo
lions, before the blowups abroad
made it even more certain that
defense spending will continue
Ia huge prop under our pros
perity.
And the reasons I could have
written this long ago are:
u. The weight Of history is
heavily on the side Of a rise in
business activity after a presi-
dental election.
(2) The weight Of economic
forces now operating is heavily
on the side of a rise in business
in coming months.
Here is the history Of business
and presidential elections during
the last half century to prove
the validity of the first point.
1900: Republicans won. In the
year following, business. as
measured by industrial produc-
ton, gained more than 40 per
cent. 1904: Republicans won. In
next full year, business gained
almost IS per cent. 1908: Repub-
licanS won. Business climbed over
SO per cent. 1912: Democrats
won. Business stable in follow
ing year. 1916: Democrats won.
Business down a bit-just over
1 per cent. 1920: Republicans
won. Business dropped 201a per
cent. (This was the 1920-2l bust
which followed World War -
1924: Republicans won. Bust
ness advanced over IL per cent.
1928: Republicans won, Business
up more than 5 per cent. 1892:
Democrats won. Business climbed
about 1874 per cent. 1896: DEM
ocrats won. Business up about
8 per cent. 1910: Democrats won,
Business rose over 20 per cent.
1874: Democrats won. Business
declined Is per cent. (This year
marked the peak of World
War ~ 1913: Democrats won.
Business fell about ~ per cent.
1852: Republicans won. Business
went up 8 per cent.
In brief, in the full year after
each Of this century's presiden-
tial elections, business has adj
vanced nine times, stabilized
once, dropped only four times
and all four declines either coin
cided with a global war or came
shortly after the great wars
end.
Here are forces backing the
validity of the second point.

Airport Volume Rises
Sharply in October

Passenger volume handled at
Washington National Airport
expanded sharply in October
and was the largest for any
month on record with the ex-
ception of last June.
Passengers Of scheduled COM
mercial airlines arriving and de-
parting at the airport in October
increased to 359,066 from 344,-
Sal in the previous month and
were well ahead of 323,043 in
October last year. The record
June total was 378,871.
Scheduled commercial volume
for ten months this year in
creased to 3.247,597 passengers,
largest total on record for that
period, and compared with o.
$685. 07 in the same 1855 period.
Arlington Assessments
Mirror Rapid Growth
A new bulletin of financial
information from Arlington
County across the Potomac pro-
vides a clear picture of the
rapid growth in that direction.
The county's assessed valua-
ton for 1855 was listed at $685.
974,884. compared with 1884,
875.070 in the previous year and
only $S7.279.994 in 1945. The
total increased more than 3.5
times in ten years.

tne preceding week, however
and downtown volume edged /
per cent ahead Of the previous
week.
In four weeks ended Saturday
area sales we're even with a
year ago and for the year to
date showed an increase of 2
per cent. Downtown sales in
the four weeks were down 8
per cent, while those for the
year to date were off 4 per cent.
A similar lull in department
store sales was apparent preced-
ing the presidential election in
1852. Merchants now are ex-
pecting sales to pickup with the
election out of the way and holi-
days approaching with its &C
companying Christmas Club pay
ments and bonus distributions.
With area payrolls and en-
ployment well above a year ago,
retail volume probably will reach
a new all-time high in the
Christmas season.
Most business establishments
will be open next Monday though
Washington and Maryland banks
and Government Offices will be
closed in an observance of Vet

ABA Proposes
is Points for
Senate Study

The American Bankers Associ-
alton today submitted a 15-point
program to the Senate Banking
and Currency Committee which
is studying Federal laws govern
ing financial institutions and
credit to determine whether
changes are needed.
| Drafted in response to an in
vitation from Senator A. Willis
Robertson, Democrat of Virginia,
who is conducting hearings
which started today, the ABA
recommendations included two
affecting savings and loan in
situations.
1t asked that establishment OF
branch Offices of Federal savings
and loan associations be made
to conform to laws and practices
OF the States covering the estab-
lishment Of branches Of State
chartered savings and loan
associations and that the estab-
lishment Of savings and loan
branch offices across State lines
be prohibited.
FDIC Change Sought
Another proposal calls atten-
ton to the growing deposit in

so to 80 per cent of the net

Another proposal would vest
final authority for approval or
disapproval Of bank mergers in
the appropriate Federal bank
supervisory authority - Federal
Reserve Board, Controller of the
Currency or Federal Deposit In
surance Corp.
Still another would provide
for liquidation of the Postal
Savings System, which the ABA
states has outserved its purpose,
Larger Reserves Asked
The ABA stated that present
methods for setting up reserves
for bad debts out of current
earnings are not adesuate and
recommended that Congress
amend the Internal Revenue
Code to permit the setting up
OF such reserves on a uniform
lndustry-wide basis. It urged
that adequate reserves main
tanned by banks will contribute
to the safety Of deposits and
promote the extension of credit.
Other ABA proposals included
amendments to existing laws to
permit shareholders of national
banks to decide for themselves
whether to have cumulative vot-
ing in election Of directions; also
to broaden authority of national
banks and Reserve member
banks to deal in and UNDER
write the obligations of State or
political subdivisions.
Additional amendments were
asked to bring the real estate
lending power of national banks
into line with those Of other
banks, and to modify some Of
the technical requirements Of
national banks in respect to re-
ports required Of them.
The ABA recommendations
were sent to Senator Robertson
last night with a letter from
Erie Cooke, ABA president.
