Babson Sees Better Times This Fall
Babson, a noted statistician, predicted improvement in business this fall at the 27th annual national business conference. He warned shorter term optimism, citing a fall in consumption and production, but urged faster money circulation and four measures: reduce overhead, improve measures, increase research, and advertise more. He believed orders may pick up and freight congestion lessen with a speedy recovery. He reserved long term forecasts.
