In fact, Russia may already be largely responsible for our business recession and the slumps in aluminum, copper, ?nd other commodity prices. Steel prices have withstood the cutbacks in output to fifty per cent of capacity. Russia's supply of this and other commodities is rapidly increasing. Moreover, we must carefully watch the currently high outflow of gold from the •United States. A certain use of gold could take the place of gas, germ, or atomic attacks. Thus, Russia’s rapidly advancing technical know ledge could cause severe industrial competition. She has accelerated her program to expand trade with dollar-short Free eWorld Nations. “Gadgets and gim micks” such as Subsidies and tariffs could tempo rarily cushion us against such competition, but these may further arouse Russian enmity and make things worse. If left alone, this recession could run iU course by 1960 But an economic war started by Rus sia would cause more unemployment and business slumps Moreover, it could inevitably lead to drastic inflation and may even drive our dollar to twsnty- five THE PERSUADER With JAMES CRAIG KRISTINE MILLER —Also— THE DISEMBODIED With PAUL BURKE ALLISON HAYES “CASH NIGHT” SAT.
