Trillion Dollar Economy
Due For America In 1976
By ELMER C. WALKER
NEW YORK UPI)-Thc United
States of America is heading into
a trillion dollar economy when it
celebrates its 200th birthday 'n
I97fi.
This is how a trillion dollars
looks $1,000,000,000,000. Just
write a one and follow it by 12
zeros. It s a thousand billion.
That staggering figure would
be-a rise of 129 per cent over
the 1958 output of goods and
services amounting lo $4.16,000,
000.000. Thai's 436 billion dollars
Here's the way the trillion is
arrived at. Standard & Poors
estimates the national economy
bases its projection on a 5 per
cent annual increase. Project that
$750 billion by S per cent a year
and you get more than a trillion
dollars by 1976.
Standard & Poor's not only an
ticipates big things over the long
er period, but it also looks for
big year in 1959.
"Indications are that 1959 will
go down in economic history as
marking a complete recovery
from the 1957-58 recession and
the start of a succession of new
highs," the statistical service
says.
"The boom that many had been
forecasting for the golden sixties
promises to be well under way by
men.
Standard estimates that the NtfiO
gross national product will reach
$-171 billion, a rise of 8 per cent
over 1958 and believes that the
rate of this product will reach
$480 billion by the end of next
year. This would compare with
the previous high of $445,600,000,
000 attained in the third quarter
of 1957 and with the recession low
of $425,800,000,000 in the first
quarter of this year.

are a forgotten art, thanks to
over-sensitive groups and individ

Danny vowed. "I can't use dialect

factor in Ihe 1959 recovery move
ment a shift in inventory change.
In 1958 inventory liquidation
amounted to an estimated $5,400,
000,000. Stocks may be rebuilt by
some u oiiiion in rJ5.
Thus there would be an overa
change of $8.4 billion, a' counting
lor almost one-quarter of the pro
jected gain in the gross national
product.
Corporate capital spending is
expected to turn upward, gather
ing momentum as the year pro
gresscs with Ihe gains probably
more marked in equipment than
in oricK and mortar.
Government spending is ex
pected to be a major contributor
in lUoR as it was in 1958.
Personal income. Standard be
lieves, will rise 6 per cent or 7
per cent in 1959, reflecting wage
rises, longer hours and a some
what greater increase in employ
ment than in the labor force.
Personal expenditures are ex
pected to rise approximately in
proportion to the gain in income.
Spending for nondurable goods
and services will expand gradu
ally, continuing the long term
trend in those areas.
Also purchases of durable eonds
should be up substantially, espe
cially automobiles.
"Although public reception of
Ihe new 1959 models is not yet
conclusive, there would appear to
be a market lor at least the
5,500,000 car target on which the
industry has set its sights.
Standard says. "This would be
almost 40 per cent above the m
dicated 1958 total."
The agency looks for a Federal
Reserve production index of
around 146 (or the year witli a
peak of close to 152 before the
end of 1959. The previous record
was 146 set in December, 1946.
"Dialect jokes are the best
weapons available to fight preju
dice. People who complain about
dialect bits cause more bigotry
man they prevent. Alter all,
everybody in this country belongs
lo some kind of minority group."
Thomas deplores deletion and
changes of lyrics in "Old Man
River and Stephen Foster's clas
sics.
"Those songs glorify a great
and colorful era in American his
tory. It's abominable that they
have been altered," he said.
"When I was 11 years old I took
a job as candy butcher in a To
ledo, Ohio, theater. During the
seven years I worked there I saw
the greatest dialecticians in show
business. Whenever the audience
was in an absolute uproar, laugh
ing Itself to death, you could bet
99 per cent of the time the co
median was doing dialects.
"There was no hatred nor hurt
feelings. The people loved it.
"And I'll tell you why. In those
days you lived in neighborhoods
where the butcher was usually
Gorman, the tailor Yiddish. Ihe
cop Irish and the fruit peddler
Italian. Their native accents were
a part of everyday lile.
"Sure, they beefed and fought
with one another, but they loved
each other, too.
"Those people were proud of
Iheir backgrounds and old-country
culture. Their laughter was genu
ine when tiny heard a visiting
comic mimic their mannerisms
and accents."
Danny's own beginnings in show
business included dialects. Rut he
gave them up in 1941 when he
was advised that Ihe road lo star
dom wasn't paved with imitations
of other stars nor the accents of
racial groups.
Occasionally he ' works in a
character with a slrong dialect on
his CBS-TV "Danny Thomas
Show." Usually it is a warm
hearted characterization which
keeps his audience from becom
ing mutinous.
"One of these days I'm going
to give a block parly in my
neighborhood in Reverly Hills."
Danny went on. "Everyone will
wear costumes representing Iheir
family origins.
"It would help us all get to
know one-anolher better.
"Nobody his anything lo he
ashamed of regarding his nation
al origins and by go Iv I m try
ing to prove It."

tion of 30.300,000,000 rubles
$7,575,000,000 for the expansion
oi agriculture.
'Zverev said 27,300,000,000 rubles
$6,825,000,000 would be ap
propriated lor scienlilic research
He compared this to a previous
appropriation ol 23,900,000,000.
He said 232 billion rubles, or 58
billion dollars, would be spent in
1959 on education, health, social
insurance and maternity benelits
for prolific mothers, an increase
of nearly 20 billion rubles over
1958. This will include more than
94 billion rubles for education, 44
billion for the health program
over 88 billion for social insurance
and 5'i billion for mothers.
"As compared with 1958, the na
tional income will increase by 8
per cent and will be 140 per cent
greater than in 1950, Zverev
said.
The finance minister called for
increased labor productivity and
lower production costs in indus
try, transport services and agri
culture, the labor force is to in
crease by 1,300,000 workers, but
the workers obviously are expect
ed to produce slill more than in
past years in the campaign to
overtake the American economy.
Zverev said Ihe Soviet govern
ment expecls its budget revenues
to rise to 722,900,000,000 rubles, an
increase of 9.3 per cent over 1958,
and expenditures to go up 10.8 per
cent to 707,200,000,000 rubles.
By contrast with the big rise
in expenditures for education and
social benefits, a slight decrease
was promised in the defense ap
propriation. This was put at 96,-
100.000,000 $24,025,000,000 as
compared with a 1958 defense ap
propriation of 96.300,000,000 rubles
The finance minister said the
defense budget "reflects the peace
policy of the Soviet Union, a pol
icy of preserving peace m the
whole world.
(The actual figure for Soviet de
fense spending is far greater than
that given for the defense appro
priation but cannot be estimated
This is because much of the Krem

coaled under other budget head
ings.

Russell To Fight
For Relocation
ATLANTA (A:) - Sen. Rich-
ard B. Russell (D-Ga) says he will
try again to persuade his congres
sional colleagues to pass a law
providing for voluntary relocation
of whites and Negroes as a means
of reducing racial tensions.
Russell s bill, a revised version
of one he introduced in 1949,
would provide federal assistance
to Negroes in the South who want
to move to stales having a low
percentage of Negroes. It would
make the same assistance avail
able to whites desiring to move
into the South. The ".949 measure
never got out of committee.
The senator said Sunday that
if other states had a larger share
of the race problem "we would
have a workable means of easing
racial tensions."
Russell said his program would
cost no more than the United
Slates spends each year on for
eign aid about four billion dol
lars this year.

The agreement was signed by
U.S. Ambassador Karl Rankin and
Dep. Foreign Minister Bogdan

The United States during fiscal
year 1958-59 will deliver about 900.
000 tons of wheat, 27,000 tons of
cotton, 30,000 tons of edible oil and
10.000 tons of beans from agricul

part fund. About 69 million dollars
of the fund will be made available
to Yugoslavia as a 30-year loan
for development of industry, min
ing, transport and agriculture.
Yugoslavia receives as a gift
about 14 million dollars of local
currency for development of
neallh. education and agriculture,
while the counterpart in dinars of
11 million dollars will be used by
Ihe U.S. government for its needs
in Yugoslavia.
The newest assistance will bring
lo about 900 million dollars Ihe
American economic aid to Yugo
slavia since 1950. The aid is aimed
at helping President Tilo in pur
suing a course independent from
.V10SCOW.
Yugoslavia also obtained con
siderable military aid, estimated
to total about 700 million dollars
since 1950. Yugoslavia stopped the
military aid last year.
It is expected here that another
agreement on a long-range credit
to Yugoslavia to' help her develop

Pretty Nurse
cold-blooded crime I've ever
heard of."
The victim, a surgical nurse,
had been missing since Nov. 18
She was the estranged wife of
Santa Barbara lawyer Frank Dun
can. They separated only two
weeks after their marriage last
June. '
Coroner Virgil L. Payton, mean
time, indicated that because the
murdered nurse was carrying a
child of more than five months
development, the case possibly
would be considered a double
homicide.
Dist. Atty. Roy Guslafson said
jealousy of the older woman was
the major motive.
Less than four months before
her death, the dead woman had
written her mother, Mrs. Jessie
Kupczyk of Benito, Manitoba, that
Mrs. Duncan beld "an uncanny
hold" over her son. She said she
planned an annulment.
"Don't dwell on my troubles,"
Olga Duncan wrote. "Life is short,
and I want to enjoy the rest ol
it."
Moya, who has denied knowl
edge of the slaying, was de
scribed by Santa Barbara Sheriff
John Ross as badly shaken upon
learning of Baldonado's state
ment.
"How could he say that?" Moya
asked. "Believe me . . . believe
mo!
Mrs. Duncan, too, has insisted
she knows nothing of her daughter-in-law's
disappearance. Gus
lafson said she gave.no statement
when questioned again after find
ing of the body.
Police say Mrs. Duncan has
been married five times in eight
years. She is charged with posing
in court here as her son s wife,
along with a paid confederate, to
obtain a fraudulent annulment of
her son's marriage last August.
It was the discovery of the
spurious annulment, authorities
say, that caused them lo begin
an intensive search for the miss
ing daughter-in-law.
Charges are on file at Santa
Barbara accusing Mrs. Duncan,
Moya and Baldonado of conspir
ing to kidnap and murder Olga
uuncan. lhey are held in lieu of
f 100,000 bail apiece.
Gustafson said he intends to
present murder charges against
all three to the grand iurv in
Ventura on Friday.
Police, led by Baldonado. found
the body of the nurse, clothed
only in a nylon bathrobe, buried
at the bottom of a 20-foot embank
ment on Casitas Pass, 19 miles
northwest of Ventura.
Baldonado said she fought bit
terly for her life in the early
hours of Nov. 18 before being
slugged unconscious with a pistol.
uustaison quoted Baldonado as
saying he and Moya took turns
holding the struggling woman
while the other dug the 16-inch-deep
grave.
