DAVID LAWRENCE

Many people are asking
what the impact Of the new
administration is going to be
on business. This Is the sea-
son when economists, buSi-
nesSmen and market analysts
are making forecasts Of the
outlook for the new year.
Predictions and forecasts
are often unwittingly the re-
suit Of ,wishful thinking. The
tendency is to see the bright
er side Of things and not to
be too grim in looking at the
facts of life.
But the facts Of interna-
tional as well as national eco
Monies are staring the world
in the face. History tells us
that after every major war
there is a readjustment.
Sometimes 1t comes within q
few years after the end Of
hostilities, and sometimes it
takes a decade or more. It
was 10 years after World War
I before the 1929 crash End
the ensuing depression af-
fected country after country.
It was not until the Second
World War broke out that q
substantial recovery devel-
oped.
Now the readjustment Of
economic conditions growing
out Of wartime expansion is
under way sgain. These
changes are sometimes re-
ferred to as mild or severe,
depending upon the extent of
the unemployment or the de-
cline In profits.
The figures do show, how
ever. that, while recession in
the last two years has az
fected adversely q number of
businesses, the country as q
whole has taken the read
justment In its stride. It is
because Of this overall ca
pacity Of the Nation to alb
serb declines in particular
industries that much en-
couragement is derived for
the future.
But the basic fact which
cannot be CLOSED over is the
extent to which both the ma
tional and international sit
uationS are influenced by
artihciality. The theory that
q free market exists in Amer
lea, for instance, is widely
held, but 1t has to be con-

ceded that governmental in
tervention again and again
prevents the natural law Of
supply and demand from OPP
Grating.
Thus when the Govern
ment Of the United States Is
spending more than $40 bill
lion q year for armament
largely for unproductive pur.
poseS-it is obvious that any
change in the war or peace
picture has q direct or in.
direct influence on business
conditions.
Although this country has
experienced many a recess
sion, nobody has come for
ward with any answer as to
how to prevent such q dis
ruption. Plenty Of remedies
are suggested as to what
might be done when a re-
cession does come-such as
Federal appropriations for
more housing projects or
other ways Of stimulating
growth through Federal ex-
penditureS. But the trouble
with all these devices is that
they last only q little while
and, when they have ex-
hauSted themselves, the
country is back again to
where it was before the rem
edies were applied.
Today, for instance, there
is much talk about unused
plant capacity. But only a
few years back New Dealers
were crying out that in
dustry was not expanding
fast enough. Many Of the
presently idle plants would
be used II natural laws were
allowed to operate and If
artificial measures were not
constantly interjected into
the economic situation by
the politicians.
The enactment Of lower
and lower tariffs by this
country, moreover. has re-
suited in great benefits to
foreign countries but, on the
other hand. it has also
caused American companies
to put up plants abroad
where they can produce more
cheaply than they can in
this country. Indeed, there
are many instances in which
goods produced abroad by

In his opening remarks the
Governor cited the fact that
the Third Legislature already
had convened in one regular
session and two special ses-
sions. On these occasions, he
said, many laws of significance
to the economy, the we'll
being, and the physical i'm
provement Of our islands were
adopted. | am happy to state
that the legislative and execu-
live branches of the Govern
ment have worked in harmony
and accord.
"As a result of this fine spirit
of understanding, coopera-
ton, and mutual give and
take, and with this stimulus
of a wide awake citizenry,
there has been considerable
advancement in all spheres Of
social, political and economic
activity during the past year.
I am pleased, too, that the
high tone Of our relationships
has set a similar pattern in all
government operations and
has resulted, I believe, in a
much improved esprit-de-
corps throughout the govern
ment service. In government
in business, and very soon
for this is an election year
in politics, the islands are and
will continue to be humming
with activity. This is a healthy
sign for the body polite.

trust to support and to uphold

There will, naturally, be diff
ferences of opinion, but ] am
sure that, with continued de
dication to our work and to
our goals, our differences can
be resolved to the advantage

Among the most important
recommendations of the Gov
ernor is that he will recon-
mend Legislation to change

Careful study indicates that
this should decrease traffic

our cars are built for right

no justification for continuing
the hazard of left hand opera

creasing number Of automo-
biles on our highways"

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
Anti-Recession Moves Listed
SY SYLVIA PORTER

Since the best informed
authorities feel that business
is good, but not good enough,
what is being done to make it
better?
A minor number of positive
steps are being taken. You have
to put them together to see any
pattern, but when you do little
package of anti-recession moves
does appear. For instance.
Act: On April 90, the Federal
Housing Administration re-
duced the minimum down pay
mentS on moderately priced
homes" bought with FILA in
sured mortgages. The cuts
range from $50 on a $4,000
house to $500 on houses priced
from $4,000 to $4,000. make
the minimum down payment
on a $4,000 house $500 and
on a $4,000 house $4,000. The
step was obviously 5aken to
help pep up the tagging housing
market.
Impact: Tiny so far, but
there are indications that the
move will have some stimu-
lating effect as mortgage money
becomes increasingly available.
Policy Changing
ACT: Beginning in late WIN
ter, the Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn perceptibly shifted its
credit policy. 1t started pump
ing a rising volume of funds

Evening star., 1960-06-15

ogy is not to be shrugged of.
Businessmen expect the higher
spending to Seep into the
economic stream at a time
when it could be most needed.
Add to the list the probable
passage by Congress of a
Scaled-down minimum wage
bill and a modest general
housing bill, and that just
about completes the package of
Government actions for now.
A small package? Yes. You
could. though, interpret the
very modesty of it as en-
couraging, because it reflects
the top-level appraisal that
the economy doesn't need more
stimulation than this now.
