...development, the deficit could still break the postwar 1959 record of $12 billion. That would seem to point to a hefty tax hike-but another estimate crossed the President's desk last week that pointed in the opposite direction. According to the Commerce Department, industry's pell-mell increase in plant expansion, which did much to overheat the economy, is slowing down. This year, such outlays increased a lusty 17%-but by mid-1967, Commerce expects the rate to be halved, significantly cooling off the economy...

The passion for pilgrimage has made the airlines the fastest-growing industry in the U.S., expanding by an average 14% a year since 1950, as against 8.4% for the runner-up, electric utilities. The pell-mell pace is still accelerating: this year U.S. airlines plan to take delivery of 287 new jet and turbo-prop planes worth almost $1.5 billion, nearly twice as much as they spent on equipment in 1965.

Golden Eggs. Every boom brings its dislocation, and Spain's pell-mell rush to industrialize is no exception. The flood of workers to the cities has sharply cut farm production, forcing Spain to import food. Government spending to feed the development plan has brought a new round of inflation at home, and a horrendous $2 billion trade deficit abroad-too much even for tourist dollars to make up for. Many economists fear that Spain is trying to do too much too quickly. "Our economy is the goose that lays the golden egg," warns Ullastres...
