a2dli BUSINESS HITS TEFFYEAR PEAK Babson Says America Afraid ef Prosperity. New York, December 2. Business closed November by sweeping up to the highest level for any month in ten years 'Without adjustment for our increase in population activity is now 6 per cent below the all-time highs of 1929 and is 93 per cent above the depression low of March, 1933. Business sentiment, however, continues uncertain and confused In 1929, the business world thought we could never have another depression. In 1939, the same group thinks we can never have another boom.

It is an even decade since' the Golden Era collapsed. In the years after 1929, business took the sharpest and longest drop ill history. As measured by ihe Babsonchart, it power-dived from 123 to 59 in the short space' of three and a half years. Stocks cracked front'-an average price of $381 a share to $41 a In 1933, the trend changed. Since then we have been in a zig-zag We had a sharp rise and then a sharp dip; another bris k-rise a not her- disconr1 aging set-back.

There were the boomlets of 1933, 1935 to 1937, and 1938. Each of these was fol lowed by STOCKS FAR BEHIND We are now in our fourth boomlet. Business has whirled up to within hailing distance of the 1929 peaks, not taking into accountas I say the gain in Stock prices which measure business sentiment pretty accurately are lagging far behind. The average stock is to day selhng at i share against the same price a year ago and at the 1937 Business, however, is 16 per cent abqve last November and even a notch higher than the 1937 During the past six months the cheeriest communiques in ten years have come from our indps-J iriai ironic-xet, no one seems to be very happy about it. Of course, we still have one tre mendous problem on our hands," unemployment.

There are perhaps as. many out of work now as at the bottom of the depression. How can this bef Because have been madly substituting machines for men during the past half dpcade to hold down costa. We have been driven to this because of labor union activities, rising taxes, and an unfriendy Administration. Our jobless problem is a big one'.

Probably of our idle workers are unemployable. The remainder, however should lie able to find jobs as business continues to increase. WHY WE SPENT $30,000,000,000 For years, economists and poh' iticians promised ns that if we could start business spiralling upward it would continue to rise under its own momentum. The forecast was that if we put n-o-ple back to work in the heavy industries, they would buy more goods, stores would place new orders with manufacturers, fac tories would hire more workers. These new employees, in turn.

would buy more goods; and around the circle again. The public was so convinced that this up ward spiral would bring back prosperity that it has. allowed the Administration to spend $30,000,. 000,000 priming the pump, in Hating the balloon, startinc the spiral Today, the upward spiral is underway. The heavy industrie are finally going The majority, however, fear that the current upswing is just a war baby.

True, the German invasion of Poland 'ignited the spark. So far, however, the war has neither helped nor hurt American business on balance. The 1940 elections, labor troubles, rising -taxes and similar hobgoblins are blinding business men to the best is dustrial news in a decade. Ten years of depression have taken tfieir toll. With business rising, heavy industries booming, earnings good, stocks and cointuodi- ities cheap, business nu-n are for getting fundamentals as com pletely as they ignored them in 1929.

ACTION AND REACTION 1 The Law of Action and Re- action ia. working 100 per dent. Ten years ago I was laughed off the platform for predicting ea impending rah. ia a sew era. Depressions are a thing of the past.

Babson is getting IxLl' This was the word that was passed around. Stocks and commodities were sky-high in those, days. Bonds were going begging. There were two. chickens in very pot.

There were plenty of signs pointing to what lay ahead, but these were ingeniously brushed aside. Today, the situation is just the reverse. Stocks are low in comparison with earnings. 'Many commodities sell for less than it costs to produee them. Bonds are sky-high.

There are two pots for every chicken. After ten year of hard -times those same, people who could foresee no more depressions in 1929ean today see no more booms. Five years ago these people wept over thelag of the heavy industries. Now the steel mills, car foundries, machine shops are booming. Still these gloom-mongers are worriedly telling their friend: "Business is good, but it can't last.

The good old days are gone forever," "LOST HORIZON" We have had depression and doldrums so long in America that we have come to think of hard times as normal times. America is just as afraid of prosperity tday a shewas -of -depression ten years ago. My guess is that those who believe that we can never have another boom will turn out to be just as wrong by 1945 as those who in 1929 believed that we could never have another depression I Interesting as this speculation is, the practical person must concern himself primarily with the outlook for the next six months not the next six vears!
