Nixon's Test Is Now

How business acts in the
next 80 days will be crucial to
the chances of Vice President
Nixon to win the White House
this fall.
There are signs that Mr..
Nixon is aware that his po-
litical fate in November could
be decided by economic trends
in April-May and he wasn't
talking only obvious politics
when in Nebraska a fortnight

does not recognize that we are
in for the fight of our lives
must be smoking opium. "
There is reason to suspect that
President Eisenhower didn't do
Mr.. Nixon any particular IA
vor when in Washington a few
days later he said the Vice
President would be absolutely
stupid" and very foolish"
if he didn't say that he is 60

basic point-the G. o. P.'s open
plan to campaign on the theme
OF Peace and Prosperity" I'll
concentrate Just on the pros
perity" half Of the theme.
Specifically:
l. These are the days of
test for the economy's strength.
There can be no more wait
and see" talk, no more excuses
for the economy because of
the late Easter, awful winter
weather, overexuberant expec-
tations at the year-end. This
is it-spring, time for a major
upturn.
2. AS of this date, the most
significant indicators of the
economy's power are still not
perking up as strongly as they
must perk up if the economy
is to be really prosperous this
fall.
There are leading indica-
tors" which show months in
advance the direction of the
economy. AS one illustration.
the total of new orders placed
now with manufacturers fore
tells how active manufacturers
will be several months from
now. The last three monthly
reports have been pointing
downward. AS another illustra-
ton, the total of contracts
awarded for construction in
these months foretells how ac-
tive builders will be in summer
fall. Construction indicators
also are still pointing down.
3. If these and other lead
ing indicators of business turn
upward in the immediate fu-
ture, fine. But If they do not,
you may be sure responsible
citizens are not going to sit
silently and wait for trouble
to hit.
4. If recession is looming
for fall and 1861. pressures are
going to mount for improve
ment of anti-recession weap-
ons. Concerned voters will in
sist that candidates take def
mite stands on whether they'd
support tax cuts or greatly ex-
panded Federal spending or
both to counter a downturn.

Judge Roszel c. Thomson of
United States District Court in
Baltimore in response to a COM
plant from the SEC.
Judge Thomson scheduled a
hearing for April 81 on the
commissions motion for a pre-
liminary injunction.
In its formal complaint, the
SEC charged that James G..
Sorce. jr., is the promoter, A.
nancial backer and real part
ner in interest and in full
charge and control of the de-
fendant First Capitol Savings
and Loan Association, Inc.
Called Untrue, Misleading
1t also charged that in the
offer and sale of securities, rep
resented by savings deposit pass
books issued by First. Capitol,
the defendants made untrue
and misleading statements of
material facts to purchasers
and prospective purchasers.
1t said the defendants told
investors that First Capitol had
negotiated with the trustee Of
First Backers Co. in reorgani-
zation proceedings under Chap

ment that First Capitol had

@. Sorce, jr.. of First Backers
to issue savings and deposit
pass books in the amount Of

that they also failed to reveal

connection with obtaining
funds from investors and de-
