WALZER New York - (LTD The Unit ed States of America is head ing into a trillion dollar ec onomy when it celebrates its 200th birthday in 1976, This is how a trillion dol lars looks $1,0 0 0, 0 0 0, 000,000. Just write a one 7ti "i and follow it by 12 zeros. It's a thous and billion. That stag- EkDer Walzer gering figure would be a rise of 129 per cent over the 1958 output of goods and services amounting to $436,000,000,000. That's 436 billion dollars. Here's the way tne trillion is arrived at. istanaara ana Poor's estimates the national economy will be $750 billion by 1970. It bases its projec tion on a 5 per cent annual increase. Project that $750 billion by 5 per cent a year and you get more than a tril lion dollars by 1976. Standard' and Poor's not only anticipates big things over the longer period, but it also looks for a big year in 1959. "Indications are that 1959 will go down in economic his tory as marking a complete recovery from the 1957-58 re cession and the start of succession of new highs," the statistical service says The Golden Sixties "The boom that many had been forecasting for the gold en sixties promises to be well under way by then Standard estimates that the 1959 gross national product will reach $471 billion, rise of 8 per cent over 1958 and believes that the rate of this product will reach $480 billion by the end of next year. This would compare with the previous high of $445,600,000,000 attained in the third quarter of 1957 and with the recession low of $425,800,000,000 in the first quarter of this year, Standard sees the most potent factor in the 1959 re covery movement a shift in inventory change. In 1958 in ventory liquidation amounted to an estimated $5,400,000 000. Stocks may be rebuilt by some $3 billion in 1959 attached at no extra i .''Sa fpjjig - - 1 j ijLfa?!

Corporate capital spending is expected to turn upward, gathering momentum as the year progresses with the gains probably more marked in equipment than in brick and mortar. Government spending is ex pected to be a major contrib-. utor in 1959 as it was in 1958. Personal Incomei Up Personal income, Standard believes, will rise 6 per cent or 7 per cent in 1959, reflect ing wage rises, longer hours and a somewhat greater in crease in employment than in the labor- force. - personal expenditures are expected to rise approximate ly in proportion to the gain in income. Spending for non durable goods and services win expand gradually, con tinuing the long-term trend in those areas. Also purchases of durable goods should be up substan tially, especially automobiles. "Although public reception of the new 1959 models is not yet conclusive, there would appear to be a market for at least the 5,500,000 cas target on which the industry has set its sights," Standard says. "This would be almost 40 per cent above the indicated 1958 total." . The agency looks for a Federal Reserve production index of around 146 for the year with a peak of close to 152 before the end of 1959. The previous record was 146 set in December, 1946. 1 Cardinals, Appointed for Life, Act as , 'Senate' of Roman Catholic Church Vatican City ftTPD What is a cardinal? Cardinals are aides and ad visers of the pope. They form the "senate" of the Roman Catholic church. They are appointed for life. Their appointment is at the sole discretion of the pope. And when the pope dies, the cardinals elect a new pontiff. The cardinals acquired the sole right to elect the pope in 1179. Before then, other clergymen and laymen and emperors and members of the local nobility took part in the election. In the early days of the church, bishops, priests and learned theologians advised the pope on doctrines and government of the church. The need came for a perma nent body of advisors. These are the cardinals of today. Dispute Word Even today, scholars dis pute on the meaning of the word "cardinal." There is agreement that it comes from the Latin word "cardo which means a hinge." . In the early days a cathe dral was designated a "cardo' because it was the see of bishop who ruled all the sur rounding dioceses. At . that tim$, priests as signed to such dioceses were referred to as cardinals." As time went on, the term was applied to the chief priest of a principal church. In 1567, Pope Pius V for bade the use of the word "cardinal" except to the prin cipal bishops of the church, And by 1179, the "cardin als" had acquired the right to elect the pope. And since 1378, only card! nals have been elected pope Pope Sixtus V in 1586 limited the number of car dinals in the Sacred College to 70 princes of the church, Breaks Precedent . The new . pontiff, John XXIII, broke that precedent last Nov. 17 when he nomi nated 23 new cardinals and brought the strength of the Sacred College to an un precedented 75 members. That was reduced to 74 with the Dec. 4 death of Jose Maria Cardinal Caro Rodriguez of Santiago, Chile. The original figure of 70, according to legend, was based on the 70 advisers the Bible said aided Moses. Cardinals rank second only to the pope. They are part of his inti mate family and are address ed by him as "brother". They hold key archbishop rics throughout the world. Or they are resident in Rome, as part of the "curia," in admin istrative posts. Nomination Not Automatic No one automatically war rants nomination as a cardi nal, either because of reputa tion or his duties. The selection is reserved solely ito the pope. He studies their records. He judges what area needs a cardinal. He makes his choice. Fervent Catholics in vari ous regions have often asked why the Vatican, through various pontiffs, has "neg lected" this or that city or country. Foreign Complement Increase " To this, Vatican sources have given the same answer through the years: "All regions of the world are worthy of having the hon or of a cardinal. But there is time." - Through the centuries, Italians have numerically dominated the College of Car dinals. But during the last three pontificates, the for eign complement has steadily increased. Italians in Minority The late Pope Pius XII, more than any of his prede cessors, fostered the "inter nationalization" of the Sacred College. At his death, Italian car dinals for the first time were in the minority 17 Italians to 36 non-Italians. The election of the former Cardinal Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli, an Italian, as pop on Oct. 28 further reduced th Italian complement. Since promulgation of a new canon law in 1918, all members of the Sacred Col lege must at least be a priest. The last lay cardinal died in 1899.
