Late in the

In line with other recent
forecasts this one places gross
national product at $501 bil
lion to $510 billion, a rise of
5 to 7 per cent. It looks for a
1 to 2 per cent rise in the cost
of living and but a tiny
change in wholesale prices.
About the only place where
a decline is anticipated is in
housing starts, but overall-
construction is expected to set
a record high.
Among the records antici
pated are steel, construction,
chemical . and plastics, tex
tiles, retail trade, electric util-
i t i e s electrical equipment
and electronics, rubber, tobac
co, apparel, appliances, home
furnishings, meat and poul
try, and paper and paper
board. Good Year for Autos
Automobile production is
expected to attain its second
best year. Coal is expected to
make a good gain. So are the
railroads.
The service looks for a
rise over 1959 of about 8 per
cent in advertisement and
publishing.
Agricultural equip ment
faces curtailed . volume, with
farm income slated to decline.
Good gains are looked for
in beverages, with distilled
spirits up 15 per cent after a
25 per cent rise in 1959.
Cuts in housing are expect
ed to trim shipments of lum
ber, cement, plumbing sup
plies, brick qnd tile, but surg
ing industrial construction
will bolster the 1960 outlook
for structural steel, glass and
paint, Prentice-Hall says.
All packaging segments are
predicted . on the upbeat in
1960. Dairy products are ex
pected to rise with, milk, but
ter, and cheese leading an up
turn in prices.
Further increases in 1960
are looked for in drugs and confronted."
toiletries. Growing popula
tion and higher incomes are
seen aiding food processors.
Natural gas sales, up 10 per
cent in 1959 are expected to
duplicate that rise in 1960.
The first half of 1960 is
expected to be the best. The
second half may see some re
sistance to the recovery.
The tight money squeeze,
says P r e n t i c e-Hall, "will
eventually topple the Wall
Street Bull market.
Moderate Decline Likely
"And that's likely to push
the 1960 business boom-ripe
for topping out in any case
into a moderate decline, run
ning into 1961.
"Uncertainties about
changes which a new administration-Republican
or Democratic-will
make in such vi
tal areas as defense spending,
tax rates, and labor legisla
tion will add to pervailing
business and investor uncer
tainty toward the end of
1960."
After this slowdown, Prentice-Hall
expects another new
auto, housing, consumer dur
ables, capital goods, and stock
market boom - marking the
start of a big new business
upthrust for the surging six
ties. The firm injects a warning
that applies to the coming
year and beyond:
"We still haven't found the
answers to the double threat
and challenge that continue
to cloud the promising long
term outlook.
"The unchecked threat of
chronic creeping inflation
could eventually force deval

challenge of Russian and

Paper Strike
In 37th Day;
No Talks Slated
Portland -0JPD- The strike of
Sterotypers against the Ore
gon Journal and the Oregon
ian was in its 37th day today
with no new joint negotia
ting sessions scheduled.
Federal Mediator Elmer
Williams said after the last
session Friday that talks had
been recessed subject to call
by himself or by either side.
Guild Observes Lines
The two newspapers contin
ued to publish jointly in the
Oregonian building. Ten mem
bers of the Portland Newspa
per Guild were reported to
have returned to work. The
local chapter of the Guild
voted last week to continue to
observe picket lines.
Harley Flesvig, president of
Stereotypers Local 48 and
chairman of the Inter-Union
Newspaper Strike Committee,
said the unions would "wel
come a fact-finding commit
tee which would bring before
the public the truth of this
labor dispute which is depriv
ing readers of their normal
newspapers."
Permit Terminated ;
Such a fact-finding group
had been suggested earlier by
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger
(D-Ore). Publishers said the
public interest already was
being represented by the Fed
eral Mediation Service.
The State Wage and Hour
Commission Tuesday termi
nated effective Saturday mid
night a temporary permit
which had allowed the two
newspapers to have some
women teletypesetter' opera
tors work a 60 hour work
week. A reduction to 44 hours
a week was ordered.
Aluminum Tree
Owners Cautioned
Manitowoc Wis.-flJPfl- Own
ers of aluminum Christmas
trees have been cautioned by
a manufacturer not to decor
ate the trees with electric
lights.
John Torrison, president of
the Aluminum Specialty Co.,
said Tuesday that '.'under no
circumstances should electric
lights or wiring be placed di
rectly on metal trees."
Torrison suggested instead
that the trees be illuminated
with colored spotlights placed
at a distance from the tree.
Aluminum is a conductor of
electricity and could result
in serious shocks if faulty wir
ing were used on the tree.
"Independent lighting is the
best method for avoiding a
voltage leak from a faulty
light cord," Torrison said.
