ing which came out this week. The time was October 1948 and enginers the Boeing Airplane Company were in Dayton to discuss B-52 plans with the Air Force. The plane they planned was designed for turboprop engines-jet engines turning propellors-but top speed was only 500 mils an hour. The Air Force asked for something faster. Back in their hotel that night, Boeing engineers sketched out a new airplane with sweptback wings, eight pure jet engines and a top speed over 600 miles an hour.

Saturday morning they bought plywood, glue and carving tools before the stores closed and built a scale model of the new airplane by hand. A public stenographer was called in to put the engineering data on paper Sunday, and day morning the 33-page report was in the hands of Air Force officers who later bought the airplane.

That is the collective opinion of 221 of the nation's leading econpolled by F. W. Dodge Corporation in its annual survey of opinions on the economic to an analysis of the survey by Dodge vice president and economist George Cline Smith, the economists are "unusually unanimous" in their belief that will be excellent and that no downturn is in sight, even though most of them do not expect sharp increases in the major economic indicators, Dr.

Smith noted that in past surveys, the panel of economists has had a good record of foreseeing turning points in these indicators. Economists included survey panel because of "their close contact with business conditions represent a wide range of businesses, trade associations, government agencies and universities, The average forecast of the economists, Dr. Smith said, indicated that gross national product an annual rate of would, billion by the end of next year, as compared with the $408 billion rate for the third quarter of 1956. The economists expected personal incomes, prices and wage rates to rise moderately next year, with industrial production, business investment and construction activity remaining at about this year's levels. Dr.

Smith said that study of the forecasts, together with comments made by the economists on their questionnaires, led to these three conclusions: 1. Business activity will set new records in 1957 in dollar terms, but this will be primarily the result of further shrinkage in purchasing power of the dollar, rather than a real increase in output, 2, The consumer and wholesale price indexes will continue to rise moderately but definitely. 3. The rise in prices will be primarily the result of wage increases. Judging from the comments, Dr.

Smith said, few of the economists were inclined to feel that the oltcome of the election would have any great effect on the immediate outlook for business.

Dust-clogged filters restrict air flow through the heating or conditioning unit, cAusing them to work at higher temperatures to meet temperature settings in rooms. This means impeded comfort performance and higher operating costs.
