CAN'T
STOP BUSINESS
Activity Continues Unabat.
ed Despite Excitement of
Windup.

NEW YORK. Nov. 4.-Hun's Review
for this week says:
Neither the pending elections nor
the persistent rise of prices have per-
ceptibly reduced the momentum of the
business movement. Activity contin-
ues undated at time when more or
less hesitancy Is usually Witnessed
and It remains a wonder that with
costs mounting steadily, and In many
cases rapidly, demands are sustained
in such great volume.
New buying for current and forward
requirements still outstrips the facili.
ties for both production and distribu.
ton, labor conditions and the growing
scarcity of materials acting as brake
on manufacturing in many directions.
Car shortages are also hindrance and
the consequent restriction Of fuel sup
plies causes some concern among in.
dustrial interests. With shipments
generally backward and the trend OF
prices continuing strongly upward.
producers display greater reluctance
In extending commitments farther into
the future and an increasing number
Of profitable contracts are being re-
jected.
Yet, even with much business of
necessity held In allegiance, bank clear.
ings make phenomenal exhibit and
are 800 per cent. larger this week at
leading centers outside New York
than year ago. though part OF the
gain Is obviously due to the high
prices.
