CONDITIONS
OF BUSINESS
ARE FAVORABLE
General Business Conditions Over the
Country Are Very Favorable
Says Bank Report.

In the weekly letter issued by the
First National Bank of Boston the
following summary of general condi-
lions and Government control which
we think will be of much interest to
our readers:
Encouraging reports from the
growing crops have been an impor-
tant feature during the past month.
Never in the history of the United
States has the need Off generous crops
been so great as at present, when to
this country has fallen the task of
supplying not only our own necessi-
ties but those of our Allies 1t is Of
immense Importance, therefore, that
we should produce a large surplus of
| foodstuffs and other natural products.
While the conditions are irregular, as
is inevitable over so extensive an area
there is uromise of extremely heavy
crops. The winter wheat crop is, vir-
tually made, and spring wheat pros
poets are very favorable The Gov
ernment's figures indicate wheat
crop over 24O,OOO,OOO bushels in eX-
cess of the 1917 crop. The Govern
ment estimates indicate cotton crop
some 100000 bales in excess of the
crop of 1917 and the largest since
1914.
General business conditions con-
tinue favorable judged by any of the
accepted standards. The record of
commercial failures during the first
half of 1918 is the smallest, both as a
murder and total liabilities, since
1917 Moreover, the figures for the
second quarter are distinctly better
than for the first. Under Government
operation the railroads report for the
five months to May 31st, gross earn
ings 1880, 2S2,62O as compared with
$274,970,49S year ago and net earn
ings $1S6,9S7144, as compared with
$295, 1890. This trend reflects the
rising cost of labor and materials,
which have for outweghed any eco
Monies in operation introduced by the
Government An indication of the in
dustrial and commercial prosperity of
the country is afforded by the fact
that in the fiscal year which ended
June Both the Government collected
$3,672 100000 in internal revenue
taxes, or $273 100000 more than the
estimated revenue from this source
The Government is extending its con-
troll over business steadily and has
fixed prices and regulated production
in many lines, the number of which is
likely to be further increased, 1t IS
commended that lower prices tend to
reduce production and so to reduce
the amount of taxes collectible upon
profits. The contrary also is true
and an instance where higher prices
have restricted consumption is cited
in decrease of about 65 per cent. in
the postal receipts from this source.
Another practical difficulty has
been the discrimination between es-
sential and non-essential industries.
Many industries occupy positions con-
corning which there con be no ques-
ton, but others lie on the border land
of doubt and their statues is not so
readily determined. 1t is inevitable
|
ent there should be inequalities and
injustices, real or fancied, but there
is a fundamental purpose and desire
for strict justice. 1t is impossible
that war conditions business should
be carried on as normally.
