MARCH OF EVENTS

BUSINESS' ADVANCE AT RECORD LENGTH

RISE OF ECONOMY ON A BROAD SCALE

By HUNKY CATHCART

Central Press Washington Writer ■TCTASHINGTON—In a few short months, the United States W economy will establish a record that virtually no expert in the field ever had the courage to forecast It will have chalked

up five years of uninterrupted business advance. At present, that advance is in its 57th month. Already, national good times have continued more than twice as long as the average of any previous economic upswing, barring only periods of war or international

emergency.

Not only is the present economic rise a record, it is unusually broad in character. Nearly all segments of American business and agricultural life are sharing in the benefits. Some government economists are becoming convinced that the historic economic pattern of sharp rises followed by sharp drops may be out of date. These experts believe that the economic machinery is under sufficient control to smooth out sharp cyclical changes. They expect that in the future economic changes will come about gradually and mildly with a minimum of hardship to individuals from unemployment or sharp, sudden losses

in income.

Some economists have been brave enough to voice this view publicly, but most of them have contented themselves with saying these things privately. They have no desire to place themselves on record in what the general public regards as an exercise in crystal ball-gazing. However, the fact remains that things are better than ever, economically speaking, and all of the signs call for more of the same well into 1966.

• SCIENTIFIC APPROACH—The following story is circulating in Washington as a true occurrence: A federal science administrator, anxious to recruit a promising young scientist for his agency, talked with him at length and invited him to lunch. At lunch, the young man picked up a salt shaker and sprinkled his food liberally.'Thereafter the conversation chilled and the official clearly showed he no longer was interested in obtaining the scientist’s services. In fact, he was advised to stay where he was. Later, the administrator explained, "Any scientist who has such a closed mind that he’ll put salt on his food before he tastes it has no place in our agency.” That’s the end of the story, except for the obvious rejoinder— that any administrator who leaps to such vast conclusions on such little evidence has no place in government!

• STABILITY—Washington diplomats aren’t too enamored of French leader Charles deGaulle these days, but they do give him credit for bringing political stability to France. Diplomatic circles vividly recall the situation that existed only & few years back when French regimes seemed to rise and fall almost daily. It got so bad at one time that State Department officials frankly hesitated to talk over confidential matters with the French Foreign Office because they had no faith in any regime’s ability io survive more than a few months. With this background, it is understandable hat Washington diplomats were wholehearted in France’s heir congratulations to Maurice Couve de .. . Hurville, French foreign minister, when he set a Po it1to ongevity record by completing his seventh year, Stability hird month and 26th day in office. He had actually topped the mark set in the 19th century a predecessor—and that’s some stability for France and ■or most other maior countries as well.
