J ? ? ., y K AT TIKI -It ': mm ! i AP Newsfetres I ! THE giant chain reaction from the east-west clash will be intensified in 1952. It will be a leap year industrially, mili tarily, economically and politically - r '-f At home, the great defense program, Just getting into high gear, will take more men, money j and materials in 1952 and even more in 1953. Production costs and prices will be higher - Am -H- I I f Congress will again wrestle with wagejirlce control. Everybody's taxes will be rug tier, voters wiu pic, a rmweni aw tuwsuj determine U. S. foreign policy for one of the moat critical four years i u : - Here is what specialist writers of The Associated Press foresee at borne and abroad in 18-z: i INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS The world has seldom seen such a Deriod of tension as is promised for 1952. Even ifjopen warfare ends in Korea, that will not lighten rearmament burdens. As western power grows, the possibility of some; fatal incident becomes acute. That is not to say there will be war. but the fear of war will live with every man. As the end of 1952 approaches, so will the critical time when western power will force Russia either to temper her aggres siveness or make a break before her last chance of success is gone. Rfnm thn. serious trouble is likely in the Middle East, where unstable governments and anti-western feeling create a dangerous vacuum. But there will be great progress In European unity and. defense strength. Germany and Japan will begin to make their presence felt In the Allied camp. The unsettling Ui S. elections will be over and the western front will be more solid everywhere. But financial troubles, heightened by inflation, will threaten the structure. In that field perhaps more than in military preparedness will lie the great problems. PDLITICS If it's a Truman-Taft presidential race, it will be slam bang with no holds barred. If the President decides to run again, he would prefer to take on Taft. That is mutual. Both think the issues would be more clearly drawn in such a contest. Taft says there would be no "me-tooism." Taft and Gov. Warren are the only announced GOP candidates. Warren thinks more like Truman on domestic issues than does Taft. Gen. Eisenhower is closer to the man in the White House on foreign affairs. But many experts predict Truman; will not run again. Some say he would not run if his friend, Eisenhower got the Republican nomination. In that case, one belief is he would ask Chief Justice Fred M. Vinson to be Democratic candidate. Primaries from March 11 to June 3, will pick more than half the 1,200 Republican convention delegates. And Taft has led all polls on the Republican choice. 1JUSINESS The cost of living will gd up a little In 1952. but will be more stable than in 1951. White collar men and those on fixed incomes will be pinched. Food and clothing will be plentiful with prices held down by competition. But farm parity supports will form a floor for food prices. Four million new cars are planned and fewer appliances will be made. But there should be no shortages until late in the year. Tires and gasoline (except high octane) should be plentiful with little price change. The government will try to hold the number of new homes to 800,000. Industry hopes to build a million or more. Shortage of metals, especially copper for wiring may be more restrictive than govern ment action. ) 4 ? X': if s. s' -4r 4 , 1 fi n nMTiamr Wirijirnmrn i MATERIAL for this symposium was prepared by the fol lowing specialists of The Associated Press: J. M. Rob erts, Jr., foreign affairs; William Ryan, Russia; D. Harold Oliver, politics; G. Milton Kelly, government; Sam Dawson, economics; David G. Bareuther, construction; Norman Walker, labor; Elton C. Fay, military; Ovid A. Martin, agri culture; Dorothy Roe, women; Howard W. Blakeslee, sci ence; David Taylor Marke, education; W. G. Rogers, arts; Bob Thomas, Hollywood; C. E. Butterfield, television; Mark Barron, theater. Federal Reserve mortgage rules favor small homes and demand should continue strong. One estimate of needs is 1.450.00Q homes a year for the next ten years. Building costs for 1952 are expected to be fairly stable. F ABOR There will be fewer civilian Jobs, more In defense with L some displacement the first of 1952 as changes, are made. Total employment is expected to rise. End of the Korean war and better relations with Russia could mean fewer Jobs and wage boosts. The expected continued tension will mean upward pressure on living costs, wages and prices. Demands for more "fringe" benefits In labor contracts are ex pected. The steel industry labor negotiations are again expected to set a pattern. John L. Lewis can be expected to try for a better coal contract in March. "M TILITARY The U. S. Army may have five more divisions. Two National Guard units from Ohfo and Illinois already have been alerted. The Air Force will get more modern planes for existing units but in 1952 can only plan for many more units. , Navy expansion will be largely in the air although 180 ships, some small, are under construction. 17 ARMS Farmers dan to break production records for the third time in four years weather permitting. Unprecedented domestic and foreign demands will spur them on. Special emphasis will be placed on production of livestock feed, grains and cotton. But loss of workers to the cities and shortages of fertilizer, pesticides and machinery will make the farm job tough. Prices will be more stable but costs may go up a little. But if defense plans do not change, farm prices and income will play a smaller part in this election year than last. In 1948, many farmers feared a postwar recession and expected more benefits from the uemocriu, OMEN U. S. women look forward to new nower and nreMr: Their potential voting strength of nearly . 50 million could elect w the next President In recent off-year elections,-women's influence was felt in a strong reform vote all over the eountrv nnmnnrativ- newcomers were swept into office on a tide of indignant feminine votes. . . - . jv The same spirit is expected to extend into 1952. Candidates win have to convince Mrs. U.S.A. and her daughters that they can sweep graft and crime off the national doorstepIn addition they'll have to be telegenic' The campaign will be brought right into the Ameri can living room, where the lady of the house may size up candidates on her TV screen. , ! I - 1 1; 1 CCIENCE Air power and atomic power are promising fields for 1952. Americans will fly higher than man ever Went. Manned rocket planes already exist and have flown to the Upper edge of the atmosphere. Chemical fuels are better, so there is no need to wait for atomic power. The United States cannot risk anyone else being first to fly out of reach of anti-aircraft guns and military planes. There will be atomic artillery la 1952. Probably the guns will be heavy with uses limited by lack of mobility. ... j f Whether an H-bomb is possible will be settled, but the facts will be secret The Savannah River "heavy hydrogen I plant may start production, but that will not be necessary for settling scientific answers about making this terrible bomb. Several private firms will work with atomic power reactors and will bring mere than 100 new scientists into the nuclear research field. This will open possibilities not open to the government A polio vaccine will be tested on humans. It 14 effective for monkeys, but long tests will be necessary to learn if It will work for humans. I f EDUCATION More enrollment, lack of buildings and trained edu " cators. a shrinking dollar these will again plague education in 1952. School boards and a growing number of lay advisory groups will push efforts to get more school funds. 'luE ARTS The great American novel, symphony for painting la not expected in 1952. In 1951 one of the biggest! most coveted cash awards in fiction was not given. The judges; said none of COO books deserved it i 5 - Financially the outlook is good. The end of the admission tax wQl help impresarios. There will be more encouraging cash prizes for artists. i f Publishers seem to have nothing to complain about Business is good and they can afford to take chances on more new, promising manuscripts. The more they support the new writer, tthe better the chances of finding good, lasting writers it's a matter of arithmetic. l i , . ENTERTAINMENT The movie industry Is optimistic Problem -4 dramas are expected to decline except for a few films aimed at Academy awards. Color musicals and adventure stories are expected to increase. Broadway plans a number of new shows with top producers, writers and actors. An operetta, musicals and dramas are all In the works. : In TV the Federal Communications Commission has promised to start to issue new station licenses, suspended since "October, 1948. But the new stations may not get on the air before 1953. Some entertainment leaders are looking for a marriage between TV and films even if it is of the shotgun varietyj , i i.- i i YULE FIREWORKS EXPLODE NOCERA INFERIORE, Italy, Dec. 24-iiP)-A hidden supply of Christmas fireworks exploded here 6unday, destroying part of a build ing and killing six persons. Fire works, used for many years in Italian Christmas and New Year celebrations, are now prohibited to promote safety. TUESDAY'S BROADCASTS Pacific Standard Time Kilocycles: KSLM 1390.
