Ayres Sees Wartime Boom Fading in 1939 Outlook
Cleveland Trust vice president Coy Leonard P. Ayres says a new business relapse is under way as war orders dwindle. He notes a four month boom in late 1939 was driven by war prep and stockpiling to meet potential orders, with production dropping from December to February and expected decline into March. Ayres warns further war and political developments shape short term recovery and long term welfare hinges on government attitude toward enterprise. He cites high production with slim profits as a barrier to new investment and expansion.
