ment was optimistic rather than pessi-
mistic, says the monthly letter on

There has been some Improvement
already and the tendency is toward
further Improvement although tho
change SO far recorded has been slight
and indications are for very slow.

Legislation looking toward a more
elastic currency is receiving some at
tention from Congress but there is no
assurance that the matter will be dis
posed OF at this session Some pro-
gress will no doubt be made and in
dicaiions are that a bill along the lines
of the national reserve association
