NATION AND WORLD
GNP grows at moderate rate
Page 11
By United Press International
WASHINGTON - The gross national product is growing at a moderate 3.6 percent annual rate this quarter, only half as strong as the previous three-month period, but enough to improve the unemployment rate, the government said yesterday.
The "flash" projection by government economists did not include the effects of the United Auto Workers strike against General Motors, which could reduce growth to 3.3 percent if it lasts until Sept. 30.
The unemployment rate has remained at 7.5 percent for three of the past four months, the same rate as when President Reagan took office.
University Daily Kansan, September 21. 1984
But Commerce Department chief economist Robert Ortner said the pace was still strong enough to ease the economic rate downward in the months ahead.
THE DEPARTMENT'S REPORT on the value of all the country's goods and services said that the economy was going through one of its slowest periods of the recovery but remains better than the average of the past two years.
w years.
In the eight quarters since the GNP
stopped shrinking, only two have had lower growth rates.
The vigorous April-June quarter grew at a revised rate of 7.1 percent, slightly less than the 7.6 percent last reported, and the first quarter surged at a spectacular 10.1 percent rate.
White House spokesman Larry Speakes, speaking from Air Force One as President Reagan flew to a campaign stop in Iowa, called the report "good news" and said the latest figures indicate "the economy is settling into sustainable growth."
The slowdown in July and August is being blamed on high interest rates and the fact that consumers may have finally caught up on the purchases delayed through two recent recessions.
"THE FASTEST PART of the recovery is over," said economist Larry Chimerine, head of the Chase Econometrics analysis firm.
"The only question is whether this is the beginning of an even sharper slowdown" or a continuing moderate growth pattern, he said.
The indicated slowdown was less drastic than many Wall Street analysis anticipated as they revised their economic outlooks downward this week. So the effect on trading
was muted, even though slower growth encourages investors to think that interest rates may come down.
for the economy as a whole, the weaker growth path suggests a slowdown in the creation of new jobs.
The report said inflation throughout the economy, not just for consumers, was expected to run at a 2.9 percent rate in the third quarter
THE 3.6 PERCENT increase in the GNP is after adjustment for inflation. In 1972 dollars, that would take the value of all goods and services to an annual rate of $1,653 trillion in the third quarter.
In 1984 dollars, the economy would grow 6.4 percent in the third quarter, to $3704 trillion, if the department's projections are realized
The administration assumes that the GNP will grow 4.5 percent in the third quarter and 4.2 percent in the fourth. The projection will be followed by the first formal measurement of the third quarter GNP on Oct.19, two weeks before the election.
The business statistics since June have been unusually weak. The forward-looking index of leading indicators dropped in both June and July.
Homosexuality linked to hormones
WASHINGTON — A pioneering experiment in hormone response suggests there may be a biological reason for homosexuality in men, scientists reported yesterday.
By United Press International
The research at the State University of New York and the South Beach Psychiatric Center in New York City adds a new dimension to the question of how much behavior is affected by genetics and how much it is affected by environment.
The scientists went beyond the standard measurements of hormone concentrations in the blood and studied how the brain responds to hormonal changes — in this case the addition of the female hormone
estrogen to the blood stream.
"It's how they process the hor mone, estrogen, that seems to be different," said Brian Gladue, a physician who now is at North Dakota State University. "It's not just what's in the system that counts, but it's how your system handles the hormones."
GLADLEA AND HIS ASSOCIATES injected Premarin, the estrogen, into heterosexual men and women and into men who reported a lifelong pattern of homosexual behavior and fantasies involving male partners.
"The heterosexual and homosexual men as a group showed a strikingly different response to Premarin," said the scientists' research report published in the Sept. 28 issue of Science magazine.
A sudden increase of estrogen in the blood stream causes a specific response in the body's secretion of mating hormone, a chemical that plays a key role in the menstrual cycle of women and triggers production of the male hormone testosterone in men.
HOWEVER, IN THE men, the levels of luteinizing hormone were higher in nine of 14 homosexuals tested than in all 17 heterosexuals tested.
The researchers found a clear sex difference in the response of luteinizing hormone to estrogen. Luteinizing hormone increased earlier in the blood of women and reached much higher levels than in all the men.
DETROIT — Navy veteran George Madas, 96, gives a salute outside a local Navy recruiting office here. The U.S. Navy Reserve mailed a recruiting flier to several apartment buildings in the Detroit area, not knowing one of them was mainly for senior citizens. Madas and 20 other seniors crowded the recruiting office, which said it only took recruits ages 17 to 34.
Pope John Paul II ends journey to Canada

John Paul's Air Canada L-1011 departed Canadian Forces Base-Ottawa for Rome at 7:44 p.m., ending his longest of 23 trips outside Italy since he rose to the papacy six years ago.
OTTAWA - Pope John Paul II flew home yesterday "filled with joy" that he shared "moments of grace" with the millions of people who reached out to him during his 12-day, coast-to-coast Canadian pilgrimage.
"Nevertheless, I am filled with joy,
for I feel that we lived together

His 8,600-mile Canadian journey took him to eight of 10 provinces and the Northwest Territories.
moments of glory. During his last day in Canada, as he has done throughout his tour, John Paul spoke forcefully for peace and against a society that accepted sexual permissiveness, divorce, abortion, wars of aggression and stockpiles of nuclear weapons.
John Paul's 18 page address to the Canadian Catholic hierarchy was the longest of the nearly three dozen speeches, homilies and discourses he delivered during his first visit to Canada as pope.
During the tour that began Sept. 9 in Quebec, the pope celebrated a Mass before 500,000 people in Toronto; had a tearful meeting with a small group of Polish sailors in Newfoundland; and met twice with Canada's Indians and Inuit, though bad weather forced him to cancel a meeting with Indians in Fort Simpson in the Northwest Territories.
