Dr. Rochester points out that the trend has been downward for the past year and that the July level was 11 per cant less than the all-time peak in July, 1948. He adds that divergent changes oc curred for different commodity groups as shown by the fact that while prices for hogs, milk, eggs, feed p-airn and hay increased ■lightly, prices of cattle and chick ens decreased. “The situation compared with a | year ago shows a decline of 11 per cent in the prices of things farmers sell ami a decline of only 3 per cent in the things farmers buy,” he says in the monthly Ex tension Farm Situation and Out look. “Prospects are that this squeeze will become tighter when heavier marketings are made. A further weakening in demand and near record crop production point to a ' itly lower level of farmers' in the next few months. _.iese prospects for a further weakening in demand stem from the declines that continue to high* light the economic picture. “In the immediate future noth ing like the drastic decline in prices following World War I and the depression of the early 30’s seem likely because our economy is now qeuipped with several built-in shock-absorbers which help to prevent such occurrences. Among these are insured bank de posits and farm price supports. “Industrial output in June w down 13.3 per cent below the peak of last fall,” he continues. “Steel production had dropped one-fifth from the March peak and cpn- sumer income, which still above last year continues a gradual de cline. Unemployment hit a post war high of 3.8 million in June, while total employment was up 900,000 from May for a total o 59.6 million. Increases in both em ployment and unemployment were possible because more peo- 1 - 1 _ ai— * ■ • - - wail pie, especially students, were job hunting,” he explains. Dr. Rochester also points out that while declines are wide spread there are important excep tions. He says that spending for construction reached a new high record in the first half of 1049 and for the year may exceed 1948. Spending by business for plants and equipment also topped the first half of last year and is ex pected to continue at a high rate w the third quarter. The number of new houses started was only 6 per cent below the first half of 1948 in spite of slumps early this year.
