Canned goods will feel effects of. sharply higher costs and lower output. Bituminous coal depends upen labor union. policy, but I expect output to be at least 10% better in 1944 than in 1943. Air transport will gain in equipment and efficiency. Manpower is far from solved. The trend of the industry is up for both air passengers and freight. Railroads will continue to suffer from equipment shortages. War peak of traffic ‘s .passed. Railroad needs are so acute that higher: priorities for equipment will be forced. -After the war, -railroads will have a_ terrible’. slump. ‘With much less to haul, they will face, as never before, competition portation, new pipe lines, airplanes and trucks. Hastern roads. will slump as soon as Germany collapses. Electronics and television should ‘boom. Heavy electrical’ equipment orders may decline slightly in 1944. Kilowatt output may be 10% better in 1944 than in 1943. Lumber volume will continue to be reduced. Backlog of machine -tool orders is declining sharply. Subcontracts may help. Nonferrous metals are heid down by acute manpower shortage. Paper and pulp will be affected by the cut in newsprint. Paperboard output in 1944 should equal 1943. Refinery petroleum ouput in 1944 will-run 10% above 1943. Higher . . prices for. crude probable. All time peaks in steel output scheduled for 1944. Shipbuilding may not show a further gain, but launchings will. OUTLOOK FOR LABOR Crux is whether sufficient skilled ‘and unskilled workers can be channeled into critical war industries. It is estimated that 2,000,000 workers must be added to essential plants in
the next few months.However, over 2,000,000 men and women reach age 18 every twelve months. Therefore the labor. sitwation may begin to ease. There will be many disputes but most upsets will be of short duration and small scope. — Labor leaders must threaten strikes for publicity and to hold jobs. The cost (of living situation will dictate the rise and fall of strikes. If rolling back prices is successful, pressure for higher wages will be considerably reduced. After Germany cracks; there will be no~scarcity of labor. Labor’s honeymoon: is approaching its end. There will be no railroad strike in 1944. ° STOCK MARKET The 1944 long term trend of stock . ! prices is definitely upward. A grow. ing’; hoard of money se ks investment. Few new ‘stocks are! available. Present holders are less willing to let stocks go, except at higher’ prices. The rise from. May, 1942 to July 1943, was a long, “unbroken advance. A period of consolidation such as from July 14 to date, was in order. i infrom coastwise shipping, river transAgi 4Yeah, with,a blonde on thet lap. Our over-seas pay.
