Why DEAR ABBY: I was gotngi through my daughter's dresser I drawers looking for something I had misplaced when I came across a letter she had written to you, but not mailed.

In it she thanks you for helping her out of some "mess" she had gotten herself into. We are very close, my daughter and and she has always come to me with all her little problems. I don't want to ask her what the "mess" was she had written to you about because I don't want her to get the impression that I was snooping through her things, but I want your explanation of that "mess" whatever it was. Please don't feel that you would be betraying her confidence by anything you tell me, Abby, because we are just like sisters, and she tells me everything any way. She signed herseli "vw NOUGH." HER MOTHER DEAR MOTHER: Since she tells you everything, why don't you ask her.

On the whole, say the ex perts, families appear to be do ing a good 10b of balancing spending and saving. If the tax cut nad resulted in a spending splurge, it might have off a new round of inflation Too much emphasis on saving, on the other band, would have kept the tax cut from giving me nation economy the fast boost it needed. Now that sev era! months have passed, how ever, it's clear that consumers as a group are steering clear of either extreme, so that the tax cut is working out to just about everyone's satisfaction.

Economists are happy because the increase in consumer spending has helped put the national economy into high gear. Retailers' sales have been climbing month after month, as a good part of the extra dollars are finding their way to store cash registers Car makers are sure that 1984 will be a record-breaker, with some eight million cars rolling off the assembly lines and into people's garages. And, of course, America's families are enjoying a rare they are getting to keep a larger slice of their earnings. slice amounting to an additional $9 billion a year.
