The end of the first half Of the calen-
dar year and the beginning Of the new
fiscal year give opportunity for compari-
sons which tend TO increase the optimism
which has become the characteristic note
OF American business during the last few

now and those Of six and twelve months
ago is most marked in the financial field,
and the courage displayed there is spread
ing over the whole country.
Statistics of six months failures reveal
alike the effects of the passing depression
and the progress toward financial rehabili-
tation Properly analysed. they show how
great is the resisting power Of the busi-
ness structure as supported by the more
modern methods OF credits, accounting

Of improved conditions constantly multi
