Economists foresee laborious recovery from recession
Two economists told the National Economist Club that unemployment may peak at 8.5 percent next year while inflation falls to about 9 percent. They predict the inflation adjusted GNP will drop 3.5 to 4 percent from peak to trough, and warn recovery will be extremely slow with wages and inflation rising together. The House approved a bill to allow cash discounts over 5 percent, sending it to the Senate, to curb card use and fight inflation.
