RECENT EXPANSION OF DEMAND Digitized for FRASER https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

305 T 1 HE pace of over-all economic expansion has quickened as rising defense demands have been superimposed on those of a strong civilian economy. Gross national product increased about $16 billion in the fourth quarter, as compared with an average quarterly gain of $12 billion over the preceding year, and almost as large a rise is manifest in the current quarter. In real terms the current level of economic activity is 6 per cent above a year ago; growth in the year 1965 was at a rate of 51/2 per cent, and in 1964 at 5 per cent. The expanding defense program and exceptionally active de­ mands of businesses and consumers have increased pressure on capacity and manpower resources, lifting the utilization of in­ dustrial capacity to the highest rate in a decade. Business invest­ ment is scheduled to rise markedly further this year, and a large addition to manufacturing capacity is in prospect. Nevertheless, with demands generally strong, intensive use of available capacity is likely to continue. Rapid expansion of output has required substantial and wide­ spread additions to employment. Employment gains have exceeded the accelerated growth in the labor force and available manpower supplies have been sharply reduced. In February unemployment declined to 3.7 per cent of the civilian labor force—more than a full percentage point lower than a year earlier. Shortages of skilled labor are more extensive than at any time since the Korean War.

306 MARCH 1966 • FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN Consumer spending has kept pace with the sizable rise in income. With final purchases by business, government, and con­ sumers rising rapidly amid some signs of delivery delays and shortages, nonfarm business inventory demands picked up sharply in late 1965 and then were somewhat lower in early 1966. Early this year, the increase in industrial prices accelerated somewhat in response to increased pressure on industrial and labor resources. The rate of increase remained moderate, how­ ever, and in February the wholesale price index for industrial com­ modities was 1.7 per cent above a year earlier. From 1960 to late 1964, this index had shown little change. Food prices—at both wholesale and retail-—have increased sharply over the past year, mainly because of limited meat supplies. Chiefly because of ad­ vancing food prices, the consumer price index in January was 1.9 per cent higher than a year earlier, compared with an average annual increase of 1.3 per cent earlier in the current expansion. Rapid growth in capacity in many industries, as well as the availability of imports, have helped to limit price advances thus far, and cost pressures do not appear to have accelerated sig­ nificantly. With manufacturing wage increases more or less in line with productivity gains, labor costs per unit of output in manufacturing in early 1966 were only moderately above a year ago. RISING Expansion of demands over the past year exceeded anticipa­ DEMANDS tions at the beginning of 1965. The key factors in the greaterthan-expected rise were the upturn in Federal government pur­ chases, which began in the second quarter of 1965 and became pronounced near the year’s end, and a progressive stepping-up of business fixed investment spending throughout the year.-More­ over, business inventory accumulation was surprisingly large in late 1965, despite a rapid run-off in steel inventories following the labor contract settlement in early September. Unusually large additions to income over the past year led to one of the biggest increases in consumption of the postwar period. State and local government expenditures continued their steady growth. Only residential construction and net exports failed to expand. FEDERAL Federal defense outlays, which had been drifting downward for GOVERNMENT several years, stabilized in early 1965 and then rose substantially under the impetus of the mounting commitment in Vietnam.

RECENT EXPANSION OF DEMAND 307 Beginning last fall, the size of the armed forces was increased by nearly 40,000 per month and new orders for defense equipment were placed in much greater volume. Military payrolls expanded because of both the increase in size of the armed forces and a substantial military pay raise effective in September. Total de­ fense purchases of goods and services rose rapidly in the fourth quarter and further large increases are implied by the defense budgets for fiscal years 1966 and 1967.

Federal actions that increased demands in the last half of 1965 were not confined to defense activities. Prior to the ex­ pansion in military activities, reductions in excise taxes had been enacted to take effect around midyear. These reductions stimu­ lated consumption by lowering prices for a variety of consumer goods. Personal income, already rising at a fast pace, was boosted further by the comprehensive Social Security Amendments of 1965 enacted last summer, which'raised benefit payments by 7 per cent, retroactive to January 1. A lump-sum payment of Digitized for FRASER https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

308 MARCH 1966 • FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN the retroactive increase in September and higher current benefits beginning in October added substantially to transfer payments. Another addition to personal income in the fourth quarter stemmed from the Federal civilian pay raise. An additional feature of last summer’s social security legisla­ tion was the provision of health insurance for the aged, effective July 1, 1966. To provide funds for Medicare and for expanded regular social security benefits, social security tax rates were raised and the wage base subject to tax was broadened, effective January 1. On the same date a second, smaller stage of reduction in excise taxes took effect; also Federal transfer payments were boosted further by additional social security benefits, higher Federal retirement payments, and larger outlays under some other Federal programs. Thus in early 1966 new Federal fiscal actions provided both restrictive and stimulative impacts on the economy. The revenues drawn from the economy through the boost in social security taxes were moderating private demands while the increase in Federal transfer payments and the large rise in defense spending were ex­ panding demands. The size of the program for meeting defense commitments in Vietnam remains a key factor in Federal activities. In recogni­ tion of the potentially over-stimulative effects of rapidly increasing defense outlays, new restrictive measures were enacted on March 15, in the form of restoration of part of the January 1, 1966, reduc­ tion in excise taxes and a speed-up of personal and corporate in­ come tax payments. The Administration has indicated that, if needed, further tax increases would be proposed. BUSINESS Aside from the recent sharp step-up in defense outlays, the out­ FIXED standing feature of recent economic trends has been the strong INVESTMENT and widespread expansion in business outlays for fixed capital. During 1965, as in 1964, businesses repeatedly revised upward their plans for spending on new plant and equipment. These revisions were particularly large in the last half of 1965, when the defense program encouraged expectations of continued eco­ nomic expansion in 1966 and of needs for further additions to capacity. Business fixed investment increased 15]/i per cent in 1965, following an 11 ]/2 per cent rise in 1964 and, according to the latest official survey of business plans, will continue to rise this year at a rapid rate. The level reached by business fixed invest- Digitized for FRASER https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Both in length and in magnitude, this succession of fixed capital expendi­ tures is setting a postwar record. Business plans further large additions to PLANT AND EQUIPMENT ....

Capacity utilization, Federal Reserve estimates; latest figure shown, first quarter 1966. Outlays for the two major elements of business fixed invest­ ment—producers’ durable equipment and nonresidential struc­ tures—increased more in 1965 than in 1964. While spending for producers’ durable equipment in the fourth quarter of 1965 was 13 per cent above a year earlier, that for structures was up 18 per cent. The pronounced step-up in spending for struc­ tures centered in industrial and commercial construction and apparently reflected a shift in emphasis towards capacity expan­ sion from replacement and modernization. In both years, public Digitized for FRASER https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

310 MARCH 1966 • FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN utility construction rose only moderately and farm construction declined slightly. In early 1966, outlays for business construction and for pro­ ducers’ durable equipment were apparently continuing their ad­ vance. New orders received by the machinery and equipment industries in January were up 12 per cent from a year earlier and the unfilled order backlog was up 19 per cent. Among major sectors of the economy, the rise in fixed invest­ ment has been particularly marked for manufacturing, where an increase in outlays for new plant and equipment of 21 per cent in 1965 followed a rise of 18 per cent in 1964. The total increase since 1961 in these manufacturing expenditures amounted to 64 per cent. The outlays in 1964 and 1965 enlarged capacity in 1965 by an estimated 6 per cent as compared with an average increase of 4 per cent in the preceding 4 years. Manufacturing output gains more than kept pace, however, and around the turn of this year the rate of capacity utilization had reached the highest level in 10 years. In the latest Commerce-SEC survey of business invest­ ment plans, manufacturers reported expectations of a further in­ crease of nearly one-fifth in their plant and equipment outlays during 1966, and capacity will expand still further—perhaps even more than in 1965. But pressures on capacity are likely to remain strong as output rises. Total investment by nonmanufacturing industries increased by more than one-tenth in 1965, as in 1964, and is expected to expand more rapidly in 1966. In transportation industries—where, as in manufacturing, pressing needs for more capacity have been evident—a pronounced spurt in outlays in 1965 is being followed by a moderate further rise in 1966. Public utilities, similarly sub­ ject to greater pressures on capacity, have projected a large increase in investment outlays in 1966 after raising them by a sizable amount in 1965. Increases in investment outlays in the last few years have reflected, as indicated above, high and rising rates of capacity utilization stemming from the large and steady gains in output and sales. They have also been stimulated by increased profits, the availability of improved technological processes, domestic and foreign competition for markets, and government actions such as the liberalization of depreciation rules, the investment tax credit, and the income tax cuts.

RECENT EXPANSION OF DEMAND 311 BUSINESS Business inventory accumulation has been generally moderate INVENTORY throughout most of this expansion period, and in 1964 was par­ INVESTMENT ticularly small. During 1965, on the other hand, inventory buying was at times quite large, and for the year the rate of accumu­ lation was up sharply from the modest 1964 rate. Outlays on inventories were especially large at the beginning and at the end of 1965, when final sales were also up sharply. Stock/sales ratios, however, remained generally stable over the course of the year. The high rate of inventory accumulation in early 1965 was associated with the restocking by auto dealers, following the BUSINESS INVENTORIES AND STOCK/SALES RATIO run-down of their inventories during the strikes of late 1964, and with the build-up in steel stocks in anticipation of a possible Inventory Stock/sales strike in late spring.

The inventory build-up of recent months has been broadly based, occurring for both durable and nondurable goods and at both manufacturers and distributors. Much of the substantial additions to inventories has been work-in-process stocks needed by defense and business equipment industries for their high and rising levels of output and sales. Following a moderate rate of accumulation earlier in 1965, nondurable goods producers en­ larged their stocks at a faster pace in the final quarter. Among distributors, auto stocks continued to climb in the latter part of 1965 but tended to stabilize in early 1966. Food retaijers made large additions to stocks around the turn of the year. Both this increase and the accompanying sharp rise in sales reflected to a considerable extent higher prices.

CONSUMER Increases in personal income were marked in the last half of SPENDING 1965, when the rise in employment and in wages and salaries accelerated under the special influence of larger defense spending, and when there were increases in Federal transfer payments and in Federal military and civilian pay. After an abrupt slowing in January, when the higher social security taxes became effective, a large gain in total personal income was resumed in February.

Consumers have spent freely on all types of goods and services and have supplemented their current income with a record expansion in consumer credit. For the year 1965, the rise in consumption expenditures exceeded the gain in after-tax income and the saving rate declined to 5.4 per cent from 6.0 per cent in 1964; for the first quarter of 1966 it is estimated at 5.6 per cent. Consumers increased their spending the most, relatively, on durable goods, which are usually the most sensitive to changes in the rate of income growth. Expenditures on durable goods rose nearly 11 per cent from 1964 to 1965 as compared with an increase of around 7 per cent for nondurable goods and for services. Durable goods purchases rose sharply in the first quarter Digitized for FRASER https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

RECENT EXPANSION OF DEMAND 313 of 1965, for the special reason noted below, and thereafter showed only a moderate increase. Throughout most of the year the bulk of the expansion in total consumer spending reflected outlays for nondurable goods and services. In the first quarter of 1966, with total consumption expendi­ tures estimated to be up 7.5 per cent from a year earlier, the rise for durable goods is estimated at 4.5 per cent, for nondurable goods 8.5 per cent, and for services 7.5 per cent. If allow­ ances were made for price changes, however, the differential behavior of the three major spending categories would not be so marked. Owing in part to the reduction in Federal excise taxes on major durable goods (the first stage last June and the second stage this January), prices of durable goods declined 3 per cent over the past year. In contrast, prices of nondurable goods increased 3 per cent, with food prices up sharply, and prices of services advanced 2.5 per cent. The year 1965 opened with a bulge in new auto sales following the slowdown in late 1964, when strikes reduced the number of cars available. Sales (including imports) were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 9.7 million cars in the first quarter.

314 MARCH 1966 • FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN this make-up period, sales receded substantially in the second quarter and then rose again at midyear, but not to the record first-quarter level. For the year, 9.3 million new cars were sold, 15 per cent above 1964. Early 1966 sales experience suggests continued strong consumer demands for new autos, with the prospect of a sixth consecutive year of growth in sales. With auto purchases little above the artificially high rate in early 1965, larger consumer spending on durable goods other than autos in the first quarter accounts for most of the year-over-year gain for durable goods. Consumer purchases of other durable goods accelerated after mid-1965, when sales were stimulated by lowered prices of appliances, radio, and TV resulting from the reduction in excise taxes. Continued strong—and probably ex­ panding—consumer demands for home goods were indicated in the January 1966 Census survey of consumer buying intentions: 18.1 per cent of households reported intentions to buy one or more of 7 major household durable items within 6 months as com­ pared with 16.3 per cent so reporting in January 1965. Plans to buy television sets were well above a year ago, and higher de­ mands were also reported for refrigerators, clothes dryers, dish­ washers, and radio and phonographic equipment. The unusually large rise in consumer purchases of nondurable goods during the past year followed a substantial one in 1964. Over the two years purchases have increased twice as fast as in 1962 and 1963. The gain has matched-—-and at times exceeded —that in disposable income, in contrast with earlier years, when consumer purchases of nondurable goods tended to lag the rise in their income. As already noted, the especially sharp increase over the past year reflected in part significant price advances— mainly for foods and apparel, which together account for over two-thirds of total consumer spending for nondurable goods. Outlays for services have continued the steady climb of recent years. Of the major types of services, housing expenditures showed the largest advance over the past year. The smallest gain was in transportation services, which continue to reflect the growing use of private automobiles at the expense of public transportation. Spending for medical and other types of services showed sizable increases. Digitized for FRASER https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
