OREGON I forecast that the dollar will not be devalued in 1967, but the pound will continue shaky. 4 C Certainly, Congress will become more ind more critical * of the looting going on under cover of the Administra tion’s War on Poverty. The whole program will be subjected to tighter supervision. 4*7 As 1967 wears along, the high hopes for more construc- * tive conservative action by the 90th Congress will give way to increased doubts as a legislative stalemate develops. Republicans will have enough strength to stop the most lib-1 eral Administration bills, but not enough to launch a pro-1 gram of their own. 4Q There will be a lot of talk in 1967 about the economy’s * “still growing.” But I warn readers to examine care fully the advance in Gross National Product which I am fore-' casting here. Biggest part of the increase will come from higher prices and wages. 40 I foresee that a breathing spell in the economy can prove * helpful. The prolonged prosperity has bred waste, lax ness and inefficiency. These can be corrected only by a re turn to fundamentals. Just as the human body requires ade quate rest in order to enjoy proper health, so too the economy, and the stock market as well, must undergo periodic resting phases. tn As the economy cools off in 1967, readers should beware * of reassurances that our problems are only temporary and will soon be followed by a decade of boom conditions. The promised land may be only across the river, but it is al ways wise to test the depth of the water before wading in. That is behind my forecast that 1967 will be a good year for businessmen and investors to have strong confidence for the future, hut to proceed with caution and restraint until the un certainties just ahead have been resolved.
