rapidly. buyers are eVluently
recovering from their former
feeling of hesitancy and seem
determined to get their share of
business. Early in the year all
were holding back, but this feel
ing is entirely gone. Readjust-
ments are going on steadily as a
result of removal of the feeling
of uneasiness. The idea of wait
ing, before attempting to revive
business, until prices of material
have gone down to somewhere
near former levels has been CIV
en- up. Both financiers and in
dustrial leaders take the stand
that they will lose more by wait
ing than they will by paying the

while there exists here con-
siderable disturbance in the pro-
cess of reconstruction, owing to

expansion. There are 1900 in

Dor being the shipyards. There
has been no decrease of popula-
ton. New additions are being
placed on the market and con-
struction, both residential and in
dustrial, is much in advance of
the last few years. Labor dis
turbance is practically past.
There is little spirit of discon-

toward cooperation.
