Profits and Prices Amid War Ramp and Education Shift
As the Korean War enters its fourth week, U.S. manufacturing after-tax profits for Q1 1950 rise about five percent from late 1949, while food prices climb. Rep Klein urges an inquiry into costs and profiteering, warning meat prices may steer the nation toward vegetarianism. The Fed notes industrial production hits a postwar peak in June, 17 percent above June 1949. Highlights include profits up $100 million, stockholder equity at 12 percent, and one billion dollars in dividends. A new trend in education favors 100 percent promotion, arguing nonpromotion signals an inadequate program and that real failures reflect system issues rather than pupil shortcomings.
