Dunn's Report

New York. April 19.-Dun's tomorrow
will say:
Not only regular domestic business
but also foreign commerce, is brought
under closer restrictions az the coun-
try Is placed more completely on war
footing. and there Is no industry or
trade of importance that Is not dominant
ed by prcsen, or prospective federal re-
quirements.
While strictly civilian demands are
enlargng in many instances. notwith-
standing the extraordinary prices. the
difficulty of meeting all needs tends to
limit the volume of transa ctons, and a
still greater scarcity of some supplies
is clearly foreshadowed by the ever in
creasing pressure of governmental or
ders.
With such facts In evidence. it Is es-
pecially fortunate that the recovery in
manufa curing has continued and come
plants are rapidly reducing accumulated
contracts as the progressive improve
ment in transportation makes freer de
liveries of raw materials and products
possible. The works In not few casA-
however, remained handica pred by the
shortage of skilled mechanics. and the
steadily enhancing costs OF production
through rising wages and other. causes
apparently render further upward price
1eYt0iouo inevitable.
