Business Morale Boosted j By Election But Material Benefits Are Months Away By SAM DAWSON NEW YORK UP) The election has pepped up the mor ale of many a businessman. But most of them think it will be months before any changes are made that could show up as items of profit ana loss on corporate books, They count on a kindlier attitude toward business in Washington. But they expect business to go its present prosperous way for months to come because of forces already at work in the economy. If General Eisenhower, however, could pull a Korean peace out of the hat, there would probably be a quick reshuffling of commodity prices and business planning. But, with or without peace, after the general moves into the White House and a more conservative Congress takes over on capitol hill, many businessman hope that .eventually they wilt see: Tax rejief, a let-up in anti-trust actions, an end to wage and price controls, speedier lifting of controls over the use of raw materials, and greater use of fiscal and credit policies (rather than direct con trols) in fighting inflation or in putting a brake on deflation if and when a slump comes. Most businessmen think the new government policies will be more deflationary than inflationary. But they think business will be propped for at least a year by a rising rate of spending for defense out of funds already appropriated, and by a continuing high spending by business for plant and equip ment and especially for moderniza tion of plants to cut high operat ing costs. Interests, Rents May Climb Home builders, landlords and firms and associations that finance building hope for public housing to decline sharply under the new Congress. And they expeet interest rates to continue their gradual rise. Rents may also rise in cities that aren't at or near the over-built point. Many think the new secretary of the treasury may swing away from reliance on short-term fi nancing and toward middle-term and long-term government bonds, sweetened with higher Interest rates. Some count on Congress being asked to permit higher interest rates on saving bonds, to move a larger part of the federal debt into more hands. Tax Relief Long Way Off This year sales of E bonds have been trailing redemptions. It is widely expected the excess profits tax will be allowed to die next June. But chances for other tax relief seem slim until another year. Businessmen are particularly worried about high taxes because these and rising costs combine to raise the break-even point for many companies to the place where a sales slump could quickly run them into the red. Businessmen think the new pres ident and the conservative major ity in Congress will work for econ omies, especially in non-defense items. Sen.

'UNDERGROUND PENTAGON' This is the entrance to a three-story "underground pentagon" 65 miles north of Washington to be used by the military if the Nation's capitol area was bombed, the Washington Post said in a copyright story. The Post said it got the story and picture from a historical summary, published by the Army's corps of engineers, and gave these details: The project, costing $35,000,000, is located at Camp Ritchie, Md.; the three story structure is protected by two heavy steel blast doors, and special means are provided for ventilation, emergency power ond water supply; and contains a communications center designed to resist atomic attack.

Hoey had named Sen. Blair Moody (D-Mich) to head this spe cial study. Moody's defeat in the Michigan election Tuesday leaves the censorship group without a chairman and Hoey said he does not plan to name a new one. Nationalizing Of Newspapers Rejected By UN UNITED NATIIONS, N. Y. Wl A resolution stating that govern ments had the right to nationalize news services was rejected 36-13 by the U. N. Assembly's Social Action Committee Friday. The United States, represented on the committee by Charles A. Sprague publisher of the Salem Oregon Statesman, opposed the resolution which was advanced by Afghanistan. During debate on the proposal Sprague criticized foreign news agencies which he said "were tools or organs of governments and consequently their views reflected the government attitude." "Inasmuch as we were desirous primarily of obtaining the facts ob jectively stated, it became neces sary for such organizations as the Associated Press to sever contrac itual relations, for example, with I Eeuters and then to expand its own facilities and services," he said. j Sprague later withdrew the state- ment when a representative of j Reuters, a British news agency, said the firm was not a govern : mept agency and that it still had : contractual relations with the As sociated Press. California Crops In Smog Siege RIVERSIDE. Calif. (A South-1 ground," Dr. Middleton said. ern California s most prolonged siege of smog five straight weeks has cost farmers from San Diego to Ventura a half million dollars in crop damage, a plant pathologist reported Wednesday. Dr. John T. Middleton, in charge of air pollution research at the University of California's citrus ex periment station here, said the loss is equal to that reported for the entire previous year. Studies made in recent months show that more than a score of vegetable crops are harmed by smog, Dr. Middleton said. Among those hardest hit were spinach, lettuce, beets, alfalfa, celery, bar ley and oats. "For five straight weeks the layer of hot air that forms a literal ceiling over the Los Angeles Basin was less than 1,200 feet above the Low wind velocities so increased the concentration of smoke and fog that it diffused widely. Damage in Ventura and San Diego Counties apparently resulted from airborne intoxicants drifting out to sea then being blown back in up and flown the coast, he said. As a result of the widening smog area, the agriculturalist in South ern California is faced with a dilemma. Dr. Middleton said. He must either move to land outside the affected area or develop crops resistant to airborne intoxicants. He said the University of Cali fornia is attempting to find plant varieties which will not be affected by smog sieges.

Russell, Georgia Demo crat, pledged today "every pos sible" co-operation with President elect Dwight D. Eisenhower in ef forts to achieve world peace.' And Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas indicated clearly that if he becomes Democratic leader in the new Senate, as expected, he will co-operate with the Republicans on national defense and foreign policy matters. Russell, who bid unsuccessfully for the Democratic presidential nomination and supported Gov. Ad lai E. Stevenson after the Chicago convention, told a reporter he ex pects a minimum of political snip ing at the new Republican Presi dent. "My disposition is to try to help Gen. Eisenhower in every possible way," he said. "Our big objective now is world peace and times are too parlous to indulge in partisan ship for the sake of partisanship. I think that's the general disposi tion throughout the country." Sen. Earle C. Clements of Ken tucky, who headed the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, said in a statement yesterday that Democrats "must give the people not the petty, carping criticisms of the Republicans during the last 20 years." "We need to present sensible realistic and constructive alterna tives when the party in power fails in its duty to our country," he declared. Russell spoke as the generally acknowledged leader of the South ern Democratic bloc In the Senate.
