Economic reports not good
United Press International
ASHINGTON — Recent economic reports do not
rr well for consumers in the months ahead, despite
Ications this year’s brief but sharp recession is begin-
to fade.
The onerous news comes on three fronts — food, ener-
pnd housing.
He quick turnaround of the recession has slowed,
iving interest rates near pre-recession peaks and
Iking the fragile recovery of the troubled housing

percent, the lowest since 1977, food prices are expected
to rise steadily over the next few months.
Food prices will go up 12.2 percent next year, the
Agriculture Department forecast last week, spurred by
increases for meat, poultry and eggs.
On the energy front, economists warn the relatively
stable energy prices of recent months will not continue if
the Iran-Iraqi war persists. Although neither country is
a major exporter to America, the reduction in produc
tion eventually will pinch U.S. allies and drive world
prices up.
According to a recent study by Evan Economics, a
Washington forecasting firm, “The situation in the Mid
dle East has deteriorated so rapidly that another major
oil shock is possible within the next few months.”
The outlook for the staggering housing industry
worsened when interest rates started up again, meaning
higher mortgage charges.
After the Federal Reserve Board boosted the discount
rate it charges banks, the banks hiked their rates. The
prime rate — what they charge their best corporate
customers — is flirting with 17 percent.
The Commerce Department also reported that while
new housing construction increased a moderate 1.6 per
cent last month, building permits — an indication of
future activity — slumped 14.8 percent.

LONDON — A London book
maker will pay out $350,000 to
gamblers who bet that Kristin shot
the nefarious J.R. Ewing of televi
sion’s “Dallas.”
Many morning newspapers and
radio stations carried detailed stories
about the climactic episode of the
wildly popular prime-time soap
opera, aired by CBS in the United
States Friday night, though British
viewers will not see the program un
til tonight.
“We ll probably wait until Monday
to pay up,” said a spokesman for Wil
liam Hill Bookmakers. “We have to
see it first. You never can tell, they
may run a different program here. ”
The spokesman said Hill took more
than 200,000 bets on the identity of
the gunman — gunwoman as it
turned out.
