of its implications for the
nation's economy. First, I should like.
to discuss the budget for the fiscal
year 1960. We estimate total receipts
of $77.1 billion. Of this total, $40.7
billion is expected to come from in¬
dividual income taxes, and $21.4 bil¬
lion from corporation income taxes.
The
assumptions for the calendar
year 1959 underlying-these figures
are $374 billion for personal income,
and $47 billion for corporate profits.
These income assumptions were
arrived at after; careful studies and
consultations utilizing all data and

to be made. Plans for modernization or expansion are more likely
to receive consideration.
Apprehension over the risk of carrying
a larger inventory is likely to give way to a greater concern over
possible lost profits if stocks prove inadequate.
Prospects of
higher incomes spur consumer spending, and state and local
governments are freer to tackle new projects as funds seem more
readily available and needs become more apparent.

Unemployment remains a nagging problem.
The rise in
employment was slowed in late 1958, but this was due in part to
strikes and severe weather. And, the Bank adds, a further sub¬
stantial rise in general activity can hardly fail to boost employ¬
ment and reduce unemployment.
