It's Just possible, Govern
ment officials believe, that Wall
Streets nervous tremors are
caused by the fear of non
imitation.
The economists say they can
see nothing else in the business
outlook for 1860 to explain the
recent sinking spells of the
stock market.
Production, income and prof
its are at record highs and are
expected to keep going up at
moderate speed. Gradually i'm
proving employment is fore
seen.
These are substantially the
same forecasts as were made
on New Years Day. Only one
significant change has been
made: There may be less inf1a-
ton than we've gotten used to.
Practically nobody expected
the economy to race. Remem-
ber the headlines over the New
Year forecasts? They said:
Record 80 Prosperity Seen
But No Boom"
That's exactly what we're
getting. And even if a re-
.cession should come along
later, Government economists
say the first reliable signs
won't be visible for at least a
month or so.
They contend that President
Eisenhower's forecast that The
economy will keep expanding
through 1860 and beyond" is
still as good as anybody's guess,
So why did sentiment in the
money markets shift in jan
uary? Why the recent recur-
rent stock-selling waves fol-
lowed by good rallies that don I
quite make up the losses?
For answer, a good many
people here point to the White

Corporation Budgets
Also Can Be Upset

The corporate budget as vel
as the home budget gets 4
kicking around; with some Sc
rious consequences sometimes.
It's a bit more complicated
in a big corporation. Of course
but the same need for full CO.
operation on the part Of every
one is just as necessary as il
the home.
An impulsive or dictatoria
decision of the corporation!
president can upset the corpo.
rate budget just as quickly a!
milady's unexpected purchase
of a dress or hubby's sudder
yen for a new set of golf club!
or an automobile.
Lack of cooperation among
top officers or directors car
throw the very best corporate
budget out of gear, declared
DR.. Sterling K. Atkinson o.
Philadelphia, nationally knowr
certified public accountant anC
educator here last night in al
address before the District In
stitute of CPAs at the Shore
ham Hotel.
The speaker said a story ha
gone the rounds recently abou
the president of a company
who came in from an afternoon
of golf to announce he though
his company should try one o.
those new computing machines
because the firm down tht
street was using one.
First Step for CPA
DR.. Atkinson said that wher
company calls in a CPA Il
discuss budgeting, the account,
ant should first determine
whether the company really i
ready for such a step, whethel
top officers and the director
are willing to support it whole
heartedly.
Whether the company car
afford the cost of setting up 6
budget and whether the ac-
countant is in a position to de
the job properly are Other
questions to be answered, he
said.
Drawing up a corporation
budget is a very big under
taking that requires a lot OF
work and money, and if it is
done only halfway it is of little
value, DR.. Atkinson emphasized
1t is document which should
be drafted with the complete
cooperation of all officers and
directors and after careful
study and consultation in all
departments, he said.

AS host Lanier students were re-
sponsible for the devotional part of

Mrs. Rosemary Bradford, render
ed special music for the assembly.
Principal L. B. Buckley and Ho-
race Buckley, president of the stu
dent body, extended greetings to
the visiting delegates.
The overall program, the theme
which was Blueprint For Action,
was a mixture of exhibits of tai
ent, dramatic skits, and relaxing
bits of music.
The following schools were rep
resented: Edwards, Jim Hill, Har-
per, Linwood, Nixon, New Hymn

July rs, Is DeadIine For W. W. II And
Korean Veterans For Making
Home, Farm Or Business Loans

available are eligible for VA di-
rect home and farmhouse loans.
The direct loan program for both
World War II and Korean-conflict
veterans is due to expire on July
%. 1860.
Since the CT loan program was
launched in June, 1914, and up
through December, 1859, a total
of 5,125,000 loans have been
guaranteed or made to World War
III veterans for a total face value
of S40.8 billion.
Approximately one-third of the
eligible World War II veterans and
one-eighth of the Korean-conflict
veterans have taken advantage of
the loan program to date.
Reviewing the tremendous scope
of the CT loan program as used by
both World War II and Korean
conflict veterans combined, Mr..
Whittier said that it was the equal
of financing one out of every 10
dwelling units in the United States,
including apartments and single
family rental properties.
Nearly one out of every 4 mort
gagged single-family dwelling units
in the United States has VA
guaranteed mortgage, Mr.. Whittier
said.

ness loans, Sumner G. Whittier,

reminded veterans today.
|. Under present law, July %, 1860,
is the cutoff date set for World
War II veteran participation in the
postwar program that has seen
more than 5 million World War
II veterans take advantage of the
CT Bill loan provisions since June
%, 1914.
Veterans who submit their APP
plications on or before the dead
line of July 25, 1860, will be al
lowed an additional year, or until
July rs, 1861, in which to have the
loan processed and actually closed.
Mr.. Whittier pointed out that
these dates do not apply to Ko-
rean-conflict veterans who have
until January 81, 1865, to make CT
loan applications.
World War II veterans who also
served during the Korean-conflict
period are considered Korean-con-
flict veterans for the purpose of
CT loans.
