Ability to Buy in 1954 Side Glances by Babson
Roger W. Babson surveys official figures on living costs and wages to assess consumer buying power in 1954. He notes prices rose under 2 percent since 1952 while manufacturing wages grew about 8 percent, and discusses employment shifts, savings, home equity, and how idle money impacts prosperity.
