WALZEH UPI Financial Editor New York-flJTO-Dun & Brad street which keeps its fingers on the pulse of business, has a glowing re port on indus trial progress and prospects for the year. Its findings are contained, in an article titled "First Hints of a New Boom?" Kbner waiier in the current "Dun'i Review and Modern Industry." -It doesn't give a conclusion on the boom question but it notes that business men are closely watching the rate of expansion and speculating whether a boom is in the mak ing. Here is how D & B sizes up the remainder of 1959: "After a temporary but somewhat more than seasonal setback in the third quarter, the economy in the last three months will move to new high ground." , It looks for a rise in employ ment and a slow dip in unem ployment until it is some where near the pre-recession average of 4 per cent, with the number of employed at a record level Here are the concomitants of increased employment: A record high in personal in come which means consumers will spend more, and save more. Pofils Will Climb Higher sales and continued cost cutting will mean wider corporate profit margins. And wider profit margins will in turn mean businessmen will revise upward their plans for capital . spending. However, Dun and Brad street doesn't look for a siz able upturn in industrial building much before ihg end of 1959. That type of con struction will be able to take up some slack of home con struction later on. Meantime, commercial building and pub lic construction will keep ov erall construction totals at a record high. - The economic service be lieves that the growing cost of mortgage money will soon slow down the rate of home construction. Other building costs also ' are expected to irtove up. ' The consumer price index is expected to start edging up early in the fall with steady food prices offset by higher apparel, service and housing if f i AO" : & V1 If you haven't already been to our Carpet Clinic, come in today and meet Wes Pearson, Bigelow Carpet Expert, who will answer your questions about carpet.

Aulo Sales Are Up With sales of new passenger cars running at the highest levels since 1955, automobile producers expect sales this year to be even a bit higher than the 5.5 million predict ed. Truck output for all of 1959 is estimated at 1.1 million units, up about 20 per cent from last year, but still be low the 1.4 million unit rec ord of 1951. Total dollar volume for consumer spending should run about 5 per cent higher than 1958, with gains indur ables outstripping soft goods. With more buying in dur ables, there'll be increased use of credit with the pros pect of a record high before the end of the year. " Here is what the Dun & Bradstreet -survey had to say about inflation stimulants: "As volume in most -consumer goods increases, prices Court Records DISTRICT COURT Oran W.

"This will be particularly true of appliances, because sales gains will be quite sig nificant here. "In addition, should steel prices have to be raised be cause of wage boosts, prices on appliances will rise even a little more noticeably than on such items as furniture, apparel, and services. "Food prices will drift high er, but won't reach the rec ord levels of 1958." All this would seem to in dicate further gains in stocks. This may or not be the case. It all depends on how much of the industrial rise has been discounted by the market in advance. It only discounts a thing once.
