But its optimism is tempered somewhat by prospects of rising labor costs, possible strikes and limited industrial expansion. The Chamber, nationwide busi ness organization, based its fore casts largely on reports from seven key industries autos, steel, retailing, building, food, durable goods and finance. Attending the Chamber's annual business outlook conference, spokesmen for these industries were unanimous in their opti mism. Over-all. the Chamber predicted a 5 per cent rise in jobs, income and production in 1959. Dr. Emerson B. Schmidt, chief economist for the Chamber, spoke of a gradual increase to a record national output totaling about 475 billion dollars in the coming year. in I9b0, Schmidt said, output should top 500 billions. However, he said a number of factors are keeping a checkrein on optimism. He noted that industry is not planning any big increase in spending for new plants and equipment, adding: "It is difficult to attain full-blown prosperity without a strong capital goods boom. This is, perhaps, the great est element of uncertainty for 1959. . . ." Schmidt also said auto sales still are uncertain. The Chamber's top economist scid there has been a slowing in business recovery. Unemployment he said, may stay higher through out 1959 than in the prerecession 1957 period. Rising labor costs, he said, will tend to hold back re-employment. in this connection, he said wage and fringe settlements are likely to exceed productivity improve ments by a wider margin than in 1958." the tendency. Disputes were al ways straightened out verbally. "Some problems occurred as we began to get into the dark nifht. A man might become annoyed at the way somebody else blew his nose, or at the way he left his place at the table after eating, or even at the way he walked along the passageways between huts. "Some- people use the same phrases over and over, and this can he annoying too. You might feel like telling them to be quiet or say something new. "But even what problems we did have were always over little things." , How about such things as poli tics and religion? "You can safely -say they're not nearly the problems as the little things." Mogensen observed. "Nobody can become really an noying in a situation like that. He will be censured by the group And group censure is a big thing in such a place." Nearly all the men kept diaries. Some, including Mogensen'a, are being turned over to Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, where psychologists will study them. from such studies as this, Mo gensen believes, man may get some idea of how to stay away from his neighbors throat even after a year in a cramped rocket ship.
