Business in eli lines is reported to
be improving about Brunswick Tray-
cling statesmen report heavier purchas-
/ es Of stock while nearly all retail mer-
! chants are being encouraged by what
seem to be increases in payrolls. On
~ lack of ships in which to handle
the immense cargoes accommodating on
the docks is hampering the return
Of prosperity and it is pointed out that
Brunswick has cargoes for as many
vessels as can be brought to the har-
Dor.
More Of the mills in the outlying
districts are running and in nearly ev-
cry line the approach of spring looks
to be the forerunner for the best bus
mess period since the spring OF 1914.
Mallory line reports show full north
bound cargoes and only lack of enough
vessels to handle the business.
With these signs indicating the in
fluence Of more capital being turned
loose for Investment and better tone
in all lines Of work, the spirit Of more
complete optimism should precail It
has now come to be but a question of
time until the waterfront again comes
into its own, there being new spirit
of enterprise in nearly every seaport
town that points to shipbuilding and
putting American bottoms to work. 1t
has been pointed out that the highest
goagoing rates now prevail and those
familiar with the situation have con
ndence in the continuation of a de-
mand for ships that will extend itself
for several years beyond the present
war
Attention is repeatedly called by
visitors that there is plenty of capital
for Investment in the southern cities
