THE ORACLE 1950 TO BE “GOOD YEAR As 1949 comes to a close, it is refresh- img te hear the prediction that. 1950 will be « relatively good buginess year ink The statement comes from Dr. Emet- eon P. Sehmidt, economic research di- restor of the Chamber of Commerce of ‘the Waited States, who expresses the view Jeent the Pederal budget deficit may not be ae inflationary, in the short run, as De have assumed. The economist seems to believe that Ti mpieate savings may not be absorbed by iewestment in production and other facil- ‘ee and that the governmental deficit eeay be financed, to a greater - degree, wat of money savings rather than the “Freation of new money. He finds most merket indicators pointing upward with Setaliment credit three times that of 1929 emd bank loans beginning to expand eee Dy. Schmidt offers little comfort to eommeumers. He does not expect them to fere much better in 1950 because wage end pension agreements raised employers’ colts end government supports will pre- sont farm prices from going much lower. Mewurtheles, he finds that personal ‘ in- ee hes been maintained with remark- ability, consumer prices have re- od Cairly stable and the stock market “ favorable outlook. atte CENSUS QUERY DISCUSSED When the census is taken in 1950, the seraters will ask every fifth person, years of age, questions her, ineome.

Because miflions. of, Soviet citizens welcomed the Germans as liberators, the editor believes'that, in case of ‘war with Russia, we should seek to encourage po- tential allies inside of Russia and take ad- vantage of the discontent against the Com- munist regime. The suggestion makes sense. The Communists have not hesitated to set up, in foreign countries, organizations expect- ed to follow the dictation of Moscow and to revolt against other governments in the event of trouble with the Soviet Union.

They point out, however, that, as far as they can see, top industrries in this coun- try are not passing the benefits of mod- ern technology in lower prices to consum- ers. By “consumers,” they include virtually the population of Europe. Economists and statemen in the Continental zone regard the farm price support policy of this country as an out- standing @ystacle to re-ordering the econ- omy of the western world. The United States, which is spending billions of dollars in the interest of pro- moting recovery, in. Western Europe, has a perfect right to advise the nations re- ceiving assistance that they shquld take steps to promote their economic improve- ment. The lowering of trade barriers has been urged by official representatives ‘of this country and, while there are many ob- stacles to effective action in this direction, there can be little doubt but that such a development would work to the advantage of the peoples of the countries affected. More people bought new Studebaker cars and trucks in 1949 than in any year before ! Since its introduction in September, the. new 1950 Studebaker has been bought by more people than any new-model Studebaker in any similar period ! Todays far-advanced new 1950 Studebaker is the fastest selling Studebaker of all time! SAYS ENGLAND HAS A-BOMB A London newspaper intimates that Great Britain has the atomic bomb but the'news arouses no sensation and nobody in the United States is concerned. There is no occasion for surprise in this connection because Sir John Cockroft, head of atom research in Great Britain, discovered the particle that split the bomb’s atoms. He worked on the Ameri- can bomb project during the war and it seems incredible that there are any ge- crets about the bomb that he does not share. Certainly, the ability of the British to stockpile atom bombs is not a threat to the United States or to the free peoples of the world. As a matter of fact, possession of the bomb by the British constitutes an- other strengthening of the military might of the democratic nations. _ STUDEBAKER REALLY ROLLING / era NIA RED MS ae : ED ED ERD MENS EN RD exe ees icc ees cae: cE eee exe om aS a Sea ema: So or SS I aa aR
