NEW YORK Uncle Sam's economic doctors gave business another dose of recovery medicine this week. The cut in the discount rate by 12 Federal Reserve banks eased borrowing for large banks and big customers, fueling bank rate cuts. Senators offered cautious optimism about a turn, while President Eisenhower's economic report blamed inventories and consumer spending for the downturn and predicted a midyear recovery if inventories fall. Key indicators showed mixed results as steel, power, autos, and retail sectors moved unevenly, with UAW talks and slight freight carload gains noted.
