NEW YEARS HNDs NATION
WITH BUSINESS STRENGTH

Washington, Dec. 31--A review of
business conditions throughout the
country made public today by the
COMMITTEES of statistical experts OF the
United States chamber of commerce
says that the extraordinary and an
normal demands made upon everyone
from farm boy to corporation head
have left the nation steady and with
heavy reserves coming up for the new
year."
In general, in the larger portion of
the country. the buying power of the
many is greater and more widespread
than ever before. so that the general
view seems to be sustained conf
dence. tempered by the realization that
no one can possibly divine what the
future holds in store for us and conse
.quently all purchasing Is for needs and
wants with the element of speculation
almost entirely eliminated. Appar-
emily the general volume of business
seems assured at something like it's
present status during the coming win
ter months"
