...tough row to hoe for the remainder of the year." Howell expects 2 million people to be added to the unemployment rolls, leading to a jobless rate of about 8% (compared with a high of 9.2% during the last recession). A.

...entrepreneur was swift. Only about a year ago, he decided that he might try marketing reproductions of some of the approximately 16,000 items in his collection, which in 1974, when he became Vice President, was valued at $33.5 million. Two months ago, the Nelson Rockefeller Collection, Inc., began with the mailing of its catalogue to 475,000 sales prospects, including 350,000 from the mailing list of the Dallas-based Neiman-Marcus department store.
