U.S. government sees end to recession Children entertained

(Continued from Page 1)
recession is so severe, the lag
is likely to be comparable to
the four-to-six month gap of
earlier recoveries.
And although the dozen in-
dividual components combined
in the composite index were se-
lected primarily for their ac-
curacy in indicating the tim-
ing of economic turns, Zarno-
witz said, "there would be a
correlation" between the mag-
nitude of the index and the
strength of the recovery.
"But I think it's very early

to tell after two months," he
said. "The third month or the
next two will be decisive."
THE REVAMPED index for
April stood at 95.3, up 5.2 per
cent from February's low and
off 24.7 per cent from June 1973,
when it began falling.
The June 1973 figure in the
revamped index anticipated by
five months the November 1973
date which has been tentative-
ly selected by the National Bar-
eau of Economic Research as
the starting point of the reces-

inflation pushed up some of its
components even as the ec n-
omy was winding down, didn't
head down until July 1974.
In addition to being strong,
the April rise by the new yard-
stick was broad. Of the 11 com-
ponents available in the in,'-ial
report, only the money supply
pointed down, shrinking two-
tenths of one per cent during
the month after adjustment for
inflation.
POINTING toward a healthier
economy were a longer work
week, a lower layoff rate, im--
proved performance by suppli-
ers in meeting delivery dead-
lines, an increase in the amount
of corporate assets which are
quickly convertible into cash,
lower prices for key commodi-
ties at the wholesale level, in-
creased spending on factories
and equipment, faster formation
of new businesses, higher stock
prices, increased orders among
produc'ers of consumer goods
and a greater number of build-
ing permits issued.

The guerrillas stated the three
hostages would be killed if their
demands, which range from a
half million dollar ransom to
the release of political prison-
ers in exchange for the cap-
tives, were not met within 60
days.
But so far little progress has
been made as all parties con-
cerned have failed to stablish
communication with the raid-

EVEN thoigh U. S. diplomats
have reported the State Depart-
