Forest Service
Starts Drive of
Standardization
V
Portland - A three - year
project, another in the con
tinuous effort to combat for
est fires and one which may
save the lives of future lire
fighters, is being launched
by the U.S. forest service.
The project is one to stand
ardize fire hose couplings to
conform to National Fire Pro
tection association standards.
Increasing emphasis on mu
tual aid in fire fighting be
tween federal, state, and lo
cal agencies makes availabil
ity of equipment that hooks
together, like hose, desirable.
In pointing up the need for
standardization, the forest
service said there are 4K2
fire hose coupling thread
forms in use by fire services
in the United States. There
ore 17 different threads-per-Inch
types in 10 basic sizes
of fire hose fittings.'
Standardization and im
provement of equipment may
save lives during an emergency.
Reason for Standardizing
One of the most important
reasons for standardizing na
tionwide is for defense pur
poses, according to J. Her
bert Stone, regional forester,
Portland. In case of attack
where many fires would re
sult, much equipment, includ
ing pumps and hose would be
needed. Standard threading of
hose would be essential to ef
ficient operation, Stone said.
Many fire departments and
at least one state (California)
already have adopted the Na
tional Fire Protection associa
tion standard for small hose.
The trend Is to more gen
eral adoption of this stand
ard.
The Paeifi" Nm-f 'vf...-. .
gion of the forest service is
now working witn me stall's
of Washington and Oregon,
with other government agen
cies, and various fire-fighting
organizations to accomplish
the task of correcting a rela
tively small equipment prob
lem that grew into a many
headed monster.
Target dale for conversion
to NFPA standards is June
30, 1968, Stone said.

(1) New orders received by manufacturers tor durable
goods reversed a two-month decline in January, the last
reporting date, and total new orders rose 2 per cent from
December's level. '
' (2) Contracts awarded for commercial and industrial
buildings are climbing.
(3) Net corporate profits have been Increasing too, hit
the highest level of 1962 In the fourth quarter.
These are three of the 12 "leading indicators" developed
by the National Bureau of Economic Research - and called
"leading indicators" because in the past they have signaled
ahead of time the development of a business upturn or down
turn with remarkable consistency. Why are these three con
sidered so significant? What makes them "leaders"? Here's
the answer.- , '
When a manufacturer receives a new order for dur
able good., he follows up by spending money to manu
facture the good., employing workers to produce the .
good., etc. The buyer's deci.ion to place the order and
the manufacturer', receipt of the order precede the
activity to fulfill the order. Rl.ing new orders for dur
able good., therefore, telegraph in advance rising manu
facturing activity to produce the goods.
When a businessman places a contract for a new factory,
he sets off a chain of events which will take place over a
prolonged period. The contract is just the beginning, the
actual spending for the factory may not occur for months.
Rising contract awards for commercial and industrial
building, therefore, telegraph in advance rising business
spending on the buildings, and as the paper contract is trans
formed into the reality of a new factory, Jobs and paychecks
are created not only for the workers engaged in the con
struction but also for those serving those workers.
When a corporation's net profits rise, Its managers are
influenced to make favorable decisions on spending for in
ventories so the corporation can hike its sales, on spending
for new plants so It can enhance its efficiency, on spending
for new equipment so it can produce at lower costs. At the
heart of a favorable Investment decision will be the corpor
ation's rising profit margins and net profits.
In short, these three indicators flash clues to basic busi
ness decisions which will be made in advance of the business
activity Itself. A decision to boost a new order for goods
means future manufacturing to fulfill the order. A decision
to award a contract for a new factory means future business
spending to build the factory. A decision to Increase Inven
tories on the basis of favorable profit prospects means future
spending on the Inventories. :
Of cour.e, other "leading Indicator." are not acting
a. wall a. these threei thl. I. why the overall pattern la
till ao Inconclusive. For in.tance, the cluaa to a future
cut in our unemployment rata are not bright. A manufac
turer ordinarily would lengthen the average workweek
in his factory, step up hi. hiring rate and alaah his
layofl rate before employing a substantial total of new
workers. As oi now, none of these three leading indica
tors - tha length of the average workweek, the hiring
rate, and the layoff rate in manufacturing - la telegraph
ing any employment boom, and our unemployment tat
has Just Increased to 6.1 per cent.
Nevertheless, the signs that business Investment will be
markedly higher this year than last are vitally important.
Consumer spending is still rising. There certainly la no de
flation apparent In government spending at any level - fed
eral, state or local. Business spending has been the lagging
factor all along.
Assuming business spending now perks up, the whple
economic picture will park up and the across-the-board tax
reductions we'll eventually get really should help ua move
ahead.
The 1961-63 economic advance Is now Into Its 23th month,
which matches the life span of the 1938-60 advance. Thla on
is showing signs of considerably greater durability.
