base gymnasium early this year.
The pool catered to capacity

swimming classes for children, was
also the site of the Northeast

tional hanger docks; airmen DOR

Executives Still Lean
on lunches, intuition

When it comes to forecast
ing the economic future; some
top executives still are putting
as much faith in bunch and
intuition as in predictions based
on statistics and business in
diceS, according to a survey by
Dun's Review.
Replies from presidents Of n
companies of all sizes disclosed
that only the larger companies
have a formal program for
economic forecasting, but
almost all company presidents
try to keep alert to general
trends and relate them to their
businesses.
Few executives claim to have
predicted the current recession
ION the nose" but their batting
average on this point. is a re-
spectacle one. More than half
predicted the present slump
before the middle of 1857 and
by the end Of the third 1857
quarter nearly all Of them saw
trouble ahead.
The great majority found eco
nomic forecasts a useful tool
but they warned against plac-
ing too much confidence in any
prediction and acting on it I'M
critically. The best of forecasts
must be undated continually
they warned.

mites for education and careers
and an example of parental
partnership may be afforded
children by mothers who work. |"
Much more significant factors
in the development of children
than the mothers absence from
home because Of work are the
relationship between the par
ents and between the parents
and child, the mental health,
social and economic status of
the family.
The mothers of delinquents
who work often show an cir
regular pattern Of employ
ment," have a history of de-
linquency themselves, unstable
marriages or emotional disturb

working, they generally do not
arrange adequate supervision
for their children.

A widespread impression Is
that a major cause of juvenile
delinquency is the absence from
home of the working mother,
Repeatedly, through the
dreadful stories of juvenile de-
linquentS runs the theme of q
mother away from home dur
ing the day or evening because
she has a job and of a child
who, as a result of the mothers
absence, is inadequately super
vised. And over and over, the
mothers themselves reinforce
the impression by their COM
ments to the effect, I'm away
all day and I didn't know what
was going on. ;"

linquency confirmed by the

FavOrs Private Financing
President ]. Stanley Baugh-
man of FNMA said the revised
purchase prices for special as
sistance mortgages should tend
to encourage builders to seek
private financing, and yet are
sufficiently high to provide nee
essary assurance that housing
will be produced.
The special assistance func-
tionS, he emphasized, are in
tended to supplement but not
to supplant private financing
in the home construction field.
They are financed entirely with
funds borrowed from the
Treasury. Under them, FNMA
purchases FHA-insured and
VA-guaranteed mortgages COW
ering special programs of
housing designated by the
President or Congress.
The programs have been es-
tablished to help finance hous-
ing for victims Of major dis
asters such as hurricanes or
floods, urban renewal, Alaska
and Guam, elderly persons, CO.
operative groups, the armed
forces, including civilian en-
ployes at military research and
development installations, and
low and moderate priced
housing.
Uniform Basis Adopted
The new purchase prices for
special assistant mortgages will
vary according to the interest
rate Of the different types of
mortgages and will be on a
uniform national basis for each
type.
The schedule for 1-to-4-
family housing mortgages pro-
vides a purchase price of 991a
for 5H per cent mortgages,
981a per cent for 5 per cent
mortgages and 97la per cent
for AZ per cent mortgages.
Prices paid for multifamily
mortgages are 1914 for S per
cent mortgages, SO for Az per
cent mortgages and 100 for AZ
per cent Capehart armed Serv-
ices mortgages. The last type
Of mortgages is insured by the
