BUSINESS SHOWS
Big IMPROVEMENT

WASHINGTON. Aug. 4-General
business conditions throughout the
country continue to show improve
ment. but until crops are harvested
the full measure OF this improvement
cannot be judged. according to the
monthly bulletin bf the federal re.
serve board issued today. Crop pros
poets are unusually bright and in sew
eral reserve districts war orders have
brought boom to many industries.
Boston reports a feeling of optim-
Ism. and a belief that Improvement al.
though slow. may be expected New
fork reports Improvement in the
steel. leather and textile Industry.
nut building operations are curtailed.
encouraging reports from Phila.
delphia itself are lacking. although
Improvement is noted throughout the
rest OF the Philadelphia district. The
outlook In Philadelphia Is said to be
uncertain. with Improvement in many
special lines, such as iron and steel.
Exports OF the port are increasing.
bank clcarings are higher, and arri.
cultural conditions outside the CITY
generally favorable.
The steel business in the Cleveland
district shows a decided advance
since last month and tin plate is

among the wholesale and retail mer.
chants and underlying conditions are
healthy
In the Chicago district there are
signs Of general improvement which
