Alexander Hamilton In stitute: "In the field of gen eral business, there are a few encouraging signs even though there are an increasing num ber of poor earnings reports, dividend reductions, and soft er copper and petroleum prices. "Steel scrap prices are ris ing, the decline in steel out put is at least temporarily halted, inventories are declin ing,, however slowly, and this latter item is important to renewed business activity. "Federal spending is having only a psychological effect on the market now as it is real ized that earnings from such operations are of a long rather than short-term na ture." In First Stages Prentice-Hall warns that in ventory turnabouts in steel and a few other areas will be matched by continuing inven tory and production weakness in lines lrke autos and mach inery, and it notes that the capital goods recession is in its first stages,- and now being amplified by spending cut backs larger than originally planned.

Standard & Poor's also noted that the inventory cor rection maynot soon be re versed.
