PREVENTING A 1963 RECESSION If the next business recession is due to hit th United Stas in 1963, what can we, s9 HSsponsible individuals and as a nation uijjted y a government in Washington, do novd lo prevent n: Do not shrug off the thre that the fifth slump of post World War II could be developing as 1962 turns into 1963. The history of business Vcles during the past 100 years suggests this upturn will be running out of steam early next spring; the average life of 22 peacetime cycles of business upturn going back to 1854 has been only 26 months and this latest expansion is already 15 months old. The scope of the 1961-62 upswing to date has been just iiddlin', neither spectacularly good nor spectacularly bad; the result is that our unemployment rate at this mature stage margins are just not fat as they must be if business spend ing it to be at the pace essential to sustain the advance. What, then, cih w do to meet tht threat of recession befor it becomes eality, sgrids bankruptcies soaring, throws more millions of men and women out of work, ouias ne-) dmag to our nation in today's fiercely com petitive world markets? We can do plenty and one place we can start right now is with major reform o our tax laws and regulations to spur business Into speeding additional billions on modern ization and expansio of qjir increasingly fbsolete factories ana equipment, This spending can be stimulated through the treasury's scheduled liberalization of its depreciation rulrOowhich will permit businessmen to write dow,p costs of buying equip ment ia a much shorter period of time and save them an estimated $1 to $1.5 billion a year in taxes. The new sched ules are being ppared by the Treasury, will be 'disclosed before June 21. It can be stimulated too through passage of the ta$ credit plan by Congress which woul give business men investing inPequipment a cash rebate of taxes of up to 7 sr cent as the bill stands toda and 8 per cent if the Administration's proposal finally wins. This move would save businessmen another $1 billion or moft in taxes each year. It ran baj spurred by a thorough reform of our tax laws end regulations governing depreciation of equipment busi nessmen buy to modernize their itlants. The one bright aspect of steel's unsuccessful attempt to raise1 prices is that it has riveted attention on the problam businessmen face today as they seek to finance modernization arfti expansion of their factories.

Hiin( price ian't tht aolulio to tn crucial monef problam of U.S. bui- tod. Tax raliarf i This is plain talk, factual and unbiased. The McGraw Hill forecast of an 11 per cent increase in business spending over 1961 is impressively higher than an earlier overnment pradicition of an 8 per cent rise but the $38 biation tops the 997 record ay only j slim margin. If the figures are ad justed for tha piacc rises of the pst five years, ''real" busi Mi spandinf this yar actually will be 9 per cent below Ivat it was a tialf-decade ao, when we wera much smaller nation. The rata at which we're modernizing our plants is quivalent to . creep when it should be a gallop. Acceleration of this spendin vja basic incentives is not only a key to our competing abroad, raising our exports, creating new jobs, paychecks, profits, it also is a way we cn postpona rcsion. It is on the area of speeding up business spending that we shouJ be concentrating NOW hile we still have time to pfevent the fourth upturn of post-Wqjld War II from burning into the fifth downturn in 1963.
