REPORT BUSINESS RECOVERY SLOWER IN RECENT MONTHS The recovery from the 1960- 61 business recession began fast, but is slowing down. For example, the flow of personal income increased about 4 percent from February to July, but dipped % percent in August. The latest report on employment, for August, showed over 71 million persons at work. This was about the same as a year before. Unemployment was listed at 4\z million, or % million more than a year earlier. New jobs have not been forthcoming to match the additions to the labor force. Housing starts, which increased in five of the first six months of this year, declined in July and August. The annual rate of starts was 1,317,000 in August compared with 1,335.- 000 the year oefore and over 1.40Q.000 two years before. Housing construction is one of the nation's biggest industries. Steel production swelled from around 6 million tons a month at the first of the year to 9 million tons in May. Monthly output since May has been 8 million to 9 million tons. Families are still cautious in spending their money. Installment debt is about the same as it was a year ago, while savingfe are greater. The slowness of personal and family buying to increase has been a major factor in holding back recovery. Retail sales dipped to a recession low of $17.8 billion in January and February. They went up a bit to $18.1 billion in March, but have not increased since then. Retail sales, however, have lagged in other recoveries, particularly those of 1954 and 1958. Consumers are better supplied with goods now than they were in the earlier years. They are less pressed to buy automobiles, furniture and appliances. Another point is that uncertainties about military service obligations prevent many families from making major purchases. Trends in bank credit are good measures of the change in tides of business. Many bankers are disappointed in the slow demand from business for loans. Business firms are not borrowing as much to finance expansion and improvements as had been expected. There is some thought that when and if consumers start on another spending spree, businessmen will borrow to increase their spending for new plants and equipment. But many businesses have just completed expansion programs and see no profit from increasing their outlays for capital items. Business failures jumped in August to 74 per 10,000 enterprises compared with around 62 in earlier months of this year and late 1960. In 1959 and 1960 the monthly rate of failures was only about 50 per 10,000. The biggest increase in failures was among retail stores selling apparel, furniture, hardware and general merchandise. • Spending by state and city governments has continued to increase, but only at a normal rate. No big change in such spending is in sight. Spending by the federal government is increasing, but not so rapidly as in the recovery from the 1957-58 recession. L. H. Simerl Department of Agricultural Economics ATTEND FUNERAL Mr. and Mrs. Peter J. Schaefer, Joseph A. Schaefer and Ben Schaefer, attended the wake of a brother, Fred Schaefer, at the Sullivan funeral home in Chicago Sunday. Funeral services took place from St. Rita's church in that city Monday.
