And they think that even the distressed industries may be doing at least moderately well agaip. Earnings, statements from two business giants today add to the pleasant scene.

American Tele- pHone and Telegraph-reports the binest per share earnings since iS2S, and Du Pont says sales are up 32 per cent over last year, but higher taxes cut earnings back -Index Higher Optimists point-to other things industrial production in dex of the resen-e board is 14 per cent higher than a year ago and still at a peacetime record high, although its rise has Jbeen halted and some think it a little this summer. Factory employment is reported 16 per cent higher than a ago. and factory payrolls 27 per cent higher. Electric power output, is up 15 per cent over last and freight carloadings are tone per cent higher. All of this leads the Pacific Finance Corp.

of Los Angeles to say in its "automotive digest" that the slump is confined to consumer goods, and price cutting will disappear as inventories decline. the grocery field, the Am erican Institute of Food-Distribution says consumer buying for -actual use is. fully maintained, although therie is some resist ahce to high prices. It thinks io6A sales will go even higher because the population is larger of workers are more fully employed and getting bigger pay checks. Activity Is Seen As for business in general.

Bache Co. thinks that while "minor readjustments may naturally occur, the forward momentum and the tremendous program" already well on Its way to completion will keep the production lines running at a lively tempo." None of this means that all business is booming by any nieans. Some factories are laying off men. Some industries are crippled by shortages of raw materials. Some dealers complain that credit curbs are ruining business.

Some merchants are overstocked.

Weber said later he was told the store had been robbed and immediately called police. He the man carrying the shotgun had trouble entering the car and also experienced difficulties in getting the vehicle started. Mra.

Reich, 21 year-old clerk in the store for the past eigW months, said she had seen the car parked in front of the grocery and believed the robber was waiting a chance to i.nd her alone.

who abdicated yesterday after an ill-fated reign of 17 years. Standing erect in front of his red and gold throne in the national house of representative.s, the young monarch took the oath to uphold the constitution and assumed the royal powers. Loud bursts of cheering and applause roared up from the as- as the youthful king spoKe. Slowly and clearly. Baudouin said: "1 swear to the constitution and the laws of the Belgian people; to maintain the national independence and integrity of the The new ruler took the oath in the khaki uniform of a lieutenant general, highest rank In the Belgian army.

He wore only one crimson sash of the Order of Leopold. Outside cannons boomed, church bells pciled and thous ands of Belgians cheered in the bright sunlight. It all was in marked contrast to yesterday's brief, quiet ceremony at which Leopold his abdication papers before 2.TO persons in a royal palace ballroom. The 49-year-old Leopold gave up his throne yesterday, still contending his surrender to the Germans in 1940 was only after the army had "fought valiantly to the extreme limit of its resistance." His enemies had accused him of being pro-German and also condemned his wartime marriage to the beautiful commoner, Marj-l-iliane Bael.s. As the controversy threatened to split the country, Leopold returned to Belgium in July last year after a plebiscite showed 58 per cent of the voters wanted him.

But he turned his powers over to Baudouin temporarily on Aug. 1. after Socialist strikes and riots threatened a revolu- tionarj' march on Brussels.

By JAMES MARLOW Washington The detective business in congress is nin- nlng Info big money: Almost $8,000.000 spent on special investigations since 1947. This came out last week in a report by a staff of experts on congress, working for the senate's expenditures committee. They don't complain about the number of i vestigations.

But they think Iney're needlessly expensive. ongress. forever calling on the executive branch of the government for more efficiency and Markm economy, acts like an amoeba Itself: it multiplies its activities by dividing and re-dividing itself. It does so by setting up committees to handle this, that and the other thing. Everj'body gets into the act Congress started out with, and will always have, number of standing committees.

They handle the regular legislative problems of government, like finances, commerce, foreign and affairs, and so on. But the.se committees divide up into In addition, special committees are created. up Specials All three kinds of committees make investigations, since that's one of congress' most important funcfion.s. Investigations help in lawmaking, checking on the executive branch, and keeping the public informed. Still, when you pile the subcommittees and special all the people hired to work for top of the standing committees and their staffs, you get quite a bundle.

For example. In 1945 the house alone had 110 special or select committees, subcommittees and standing committees. The senate had 75. cfn 1346 congress, grown top- heavy, reorganized itself. The senate's standing committees, which had multiplied through the years to 33.

were reduced to 15. The house's 48 standing com- miftees were cut to 19.) Orerlappinr How to account for this maze of committees which had grown up? In their report the experts explain: (I.) Part of it WM due to (he overlapping and indefinite jurisdiction of the standing committees. For example: Is food shipped abroad a problem for the foreign relations or agriculture committee? (3.) The standing committees were not equipped with professional staffs competent to help in conducting investigations. So when it reorganized itself in 1946 congress tried to define the jurisdictions of the various standing committees a little more closely. And each of them was voted money to hire permanent professional staffs.

For these routine chores the committees don't need extra help. But when it comes to investigations subcommittees and special committees get into the act they go out and hire more help, a temporary staff of professional men and clerical workers. MUUon on Extras Ahnost all of the SS.OOO.OOO spent on investigations since 1947 went to pay these extra, temporary people. That SS.OOO.­ OOO was in addition to the salaries of' th? permanent staff people working for the standing committees, plus 510,000 a year which each standing conunittee has for expenses. The experts In their report suggest congress cut down on hiring those temporarj' people for investigations and make better use of the permanent, professional men already on the payroll.

Further, the experts suggest that all investigations not directly connected with lawmaking be given to a central investigating committee, with a permanent professional staff to help the Although the experts undoubtedly put a lot of work into nuking up their report, that doesn't mean congress will ido anything about it.
