Economy Expected to Advance Through 1967 Says Saulnier
Raymond J. Saulnier, former chairman of Eisenhower’s CEA, foresees continued growth in 1966 and 1967 barring a Viet Nam escalation. William C. Freund of Prudential predicts a 4 percent national growth for the next decade, with no major low mood recurring. Saulnier downplays tax hikes, warns of capital goods softness, expects rising prices but a controlled money supply and stable interest rates. He criticizes Kennedy Johnson policies but aligns with Johnson on the business outlook. The President’s tax stance appears to have paid off, critics’ views underscoring stability goals.
