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.

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.
