Treasury Secretary Ander-
sons optimistic speech on the
United States Wednesday has
stirred a wide spectrum of opin-
ion among economists.
Some of the talk split along
party lines. A few managed to
set aside election year feelings.
Most agreed that whether they
sided with him or not. the
Secretary was speaking for the
CHEEKY wing of the economists
fraternity.
''I think his evaluation is a
possible one remarked Her.
bert Stein, research director for
the Committee Economic De-
velopment. But we know some
things are going to go down,
such as new plant and equip
ment expenditures next year" d"
Mr.. Anderson said the United
States had gone through a
readjustment in the last year
and was heading into a period
of growth without imitation.
While admitting unemployment
is still troublesome" and steel
output low, he said other indi-
Gators promised good times,
both in the near future and
for the long run.
Too Optimistic?
Ralph w. Robey, economic
adviser to the National Asso-
citation of Manufacturers, COM
mented: "a lot of people think
Mr.. Anderson'S speech was too
optimistic. The place where
I'd have some reservation is
where he said business will be
good now and in the far future.
He's taking in a lot of ground" !"
Mr.. Robey added that he
personally does not anticipate
another major recession now,
but said 1--WE have to have re-
adjustments now and then.
I'm not going to make up my
mind on 1861 until we get the
results Of the election"
Gerhard Colin, chief econo-
mist for the National Planning
Association, said he thought the
Secretary dismissed a little too
lightly the Investment plans
for new plant and equipment.
Quite a number of companies
show cutbacks in this for 1851"
Like the NAM spokesman, Mr..
Colin does not believe we're on
the edge of a serious downturn,

Admiral Tyree, whose state.

tal-balled McMurdo's future
while discussing proposals to
build q permanent landing
strip to replace a bay-ice run
way near here. The ice runway,
operational perhaps so days a
year, is the Antarctic conti-
nent's chief air link with the
outside world.
Not Justified for Research
Admiral Tyree said he could
find no justification for build
ing q permanent strip solely
to support the United States
Antarctic Research Program.
The expense would be too great
for the probable returns on
the investment. But If civil

The Antarctic Treaty. re-

Except for its use as a Jet

no commercial justification for
the Marble Point airstrip. The
continent is uninhabited except
for scientific exploration parties

possibility Of developing trade
