And the technological ly unemployed, those whose imwl GEuuurs jobs have been eliminated by machines and processes, are not better off perhaps worse off The beginning of the boom was barely heard, perhaps because it was muffled in the controversy, pertinent at the time, of whether the nation was in a recession, which really is the starting point of expansions. Heated Debate The recession debate became heated in the weeks following the inauguration of President John F. Kennedy, who was accused by Republicans of exaggerating the problems of the day. But then agreement was reached on the use of sion." In reply to a reporter's question, Kennedy stated "To put it precisely I would call this a recession." And said Sen.

Everett M. Dirksen, "Recede means to come down from a high level, and in that respect I guess we have a recession." Hie ascent during the next seven years has produced remarkable contrasts, so vast, in fact, that they make 1961 seem many more years ago. For example, the Gross National Product or the total of all efforts at mining, forging, manufacturing, assembling, preparing, serving rose to a rate well over $800 billion a year from only $500 billion, although inflation has lately exaggerated the contrast. i Industrial output during that time soared.

Heinz Barth, Washington correspondent for the independent Die Welt, said of Johnson's domestic position: "The very same Johnson who until recently was considered the prototype of a not overscrupulous demagogue, as a cunning manipulator, has now been cast by prevailing circumstances in the role of a wise man who does not hesitate to risk unpopularity by harsh but necessary decision. "Now that he is entering the last ground, he is compelled to disappoint all groups; the liberals by escalation, the Negroes by delaying social programs, the whites by tax increases, industry by curbing foreign investments, the public by making traveling abroad more difficult." In Paris, the conservative l'Aurore said: "Less than a year away from the presidential election, Lyndon B. Johnson employed a tone far removed, from demagogy.

He gave the American people no illusions about an end of the war being near. He did not hide the enormity of the federal government's needs." Le Dauphine Libere of Grenoble said: "It was perhaps an excellent spech. it disappointed everyone in the world waiting for clarification of his thoughts on Vietnam."
