Economic Outlook and Production Trends Seen for 1952 Main Streets
Washington experts forecast 1952 business on Main Streets will resemble prewar norms rather than abnormal profits. Personal income reached 257 billion dollars in December at an annual rate, with 1951 total income 251 billion and wage receipts rising to 166 billion. Public policy maintains price and wage controls, new wool price support operates as a loan program, and paint and fabric production shows gains with synthetic fabrics expanding to 425 million yards rayon and 43 million yards nylon in Q4 1952.
