MINNEAPOLIS—With average purchasing power continuing high, the economic condition of the coun try is excellent, the monthly In vestors Syndicate survey of “real income” reports. “Real income" is the relationship of revenue to living costs. The buying power of the aver age family is 3 per cent higher than a yea' ago, the survey shows. Balance between wages, salaries, investment income and farm reve nue continues to improve, giving the economy a healthy stability. Barring a major inflationary surge resulting from a new round of wage increases, the average consumer will probably continue to be better off in 1948 than in 1947, Investors Syndicate said. Though prices, particularly of food, are still rising, they are not going up as fast as family income. “All predictions made last year that an early slump was inevitable have beqn proved false,” said E. E. Crabb, chairman and president ol Investors Syndicate, a leading dis tributor of investment certificates “The soundness of the economy has been proved by the way normal balances are being maintained be tween costs and income, and among various types of income. Econo mically, the nation seems to be in excellent condition.” CLEAN WHOLESOME MILK from a CLEAN LOCAL DAIRY!
