Newspaper Page TextBusiness Activity Will Be On High Level First Half Of This Year, Opinion Gained In Poll The first halt ot 1950 promises to maintain a high level of business activity, according to a poll of 28,000 businessmen by Federal Reserve bank statistltions, Harold E. Schmeer. newly-elected president, said In an address before the Roseburg Chamber of Commerce Monday noon at the Hotel Umpqua. oenerauy speaking, utilities and manufacturers of caDital and consumer' goods are the most op timistic, and retail trade, whole sale trade, mining and transpor tation are the most pessimistic, In that order, Schmeer said. Ov erall, 56 percent of the business men thought that business In 1950 will be as good or better than in 1949. In the November, 1948 poll of businessmen many were pessi mistic and anticipated a reces sion. The November, 1949 poll PROMPT, EFFICIENT SERVICE Men's, Women's Children's . . .

"It is Interesting to note that the Northeast section of the coun try is the most optimistic and the Sbuth and Far West the most pessimistic," Schmeer pointed out. "The reasons for this are nut definitely assignable. Perhaps the Northeast section feels that not having had any great in crease in prosperity it is likely to go along on an even keel and that those of us In the more re cently favored sections cannot hope for a continuation of the up swing indefinitely," Schmeer said. Fifty-nine percent of the 28, 000 executives expect the Feder al Reserve index to be eoual to or above today's levels six months hence, but a sizable mi nority of 40 percent expect it to be from five to 15 percent lower, the new Chamber president point ed out. Concerning anticipated gross sales: In 1948 18 percent predict ed an upward trend, 26 percent little change, and 55 percent said the trend would be down. In 1949, 36 percent saw an upward "rend, 35 percent saw little change, and FARMERS Local claims service is your assur ance of fast repairs when your car is damaged LOW RATES . . on collision and liability cov erage gives you standard protec tion ot substantial Paul H.
