Economy Edges Toward Recovery Amid Mixed Signals
New York AP reports economists declare the recession ending as private and government analysts forecast a recovery. Jobless rate sits around 8.9 percent, with some estimates near 11. Commerce notes 1.3 million more poor in 1973 totaling 24.3 million. Median family income at 12,840 for 1974, inflation-adjusted down 4 percent from 1973. Prices rise, mortgage rates climb, and some growth in output and inventories hints at momentum, though unemployment remains high and living costs strain families.
