AP Business writer reports that growth remains robust in many sectors and plans for record capital spending. Commerce and SEC surveys show $73 billion to be spent on new plants and equipment this year, up 14 percent from 1968, while employment climbs to a February high of 77,729,000. Inflation, taxes, and a 10 percent income tax surcharge loom as possible brake measures.
