Foreign Trade Outlook
41. Exports will fall again in 1953.
The drop in imports will be much
less than in exports. The new Ad
ministration will be urged to pro
mote foreign trade instead of foreign
aid. Only by buying our neighbors’
goods can we get them off the relief
rolls. To save ourselves, I predict,
we will buy more abroad, although
this will be hard on some United
States irtaoufacturiers.
42. I look for no change in the of
ficial United States buying price for
gold. We won’t ‘‘monkey with” the

cording to P. L. Bruce, owner.

for business profits to be slightly
lower than in 1952. Earnings will be
better during the early months, with
a decline occurring later in the year.
Profit margins will be cut by stiffer
competition from both domestic and
foreign sources.
44. Recently upped wages, plus
some additional 1953 boosts, will also
put heavier cost pressure on profits.

PIANOS in excellent condition, rather than from a new enlightened no action unless prepared to
heavier lojgs. This very fact, how
ever, will make it difficult for Con
gress to reduce the rate of taxation.
47. Stocks are high historically.
We are approaching the ehd of k
long period of prosperity, much of
which is based upon artificial meas
ures. Therefore, some time during
1953 I forecast lower stock prices
than exist today.
48. Yet, do not forget that the
stock market was at about the same
price point when President Hoover
won by a landslide in 1928. With
business prospects good for early
1953, confidence might again cause
a temporary boom. If an “Eisenhow
er bull market” develops, I strongly
urge readers to take profits and build
up reserves. With 12 months after
Hoover entered the White House the
Industrial Averages fell 100 points.
49. New Administration will not
favor “soft money” policy. There
fore, some further rise in interest
rates seems probable. For this rea
son, I favor high-grade, short-term
bonds, rather than long-term.
50. Finally: Wise investors are
been sold since their production
started in 1947. The over-all length
of the new tractor has been increased
to 1220 inches and its weight to
2,510 pounds. It is powered by the
entirely new overhead valve Ford
“Red-Tiger” engine.

had chickenpox last fall, then in Jan

spell of measles in April. All this left
her so weak she could hardly sit up
all day and seemed so nervous at
night she would wake up crying and
frightened. Her arms and legs seem

to rub her with alcohol and other
rubs. We gave her vitamins and oth

get better until we started her on

fore she had finished the second bot

sjae seemed ’just fine, and now she
doesn’t seem like the same child. She
seems so much happier and doesn't

hearty and is growing fast on Scalfs

of folks ask what we have done for
