New York. oct Bradstreets
tomorrow will say:
Labor unrest and inefficiency are
apparently the only clouds on the
commercial horizon. now thai living
cost agitation has waned and prices
seem to have reached an equilibrium
Some old strikes. as for instance that
in the steel industry, have lost much
of their power for unsettlements. but
those OF longshoremen at New York
and San Francisco have aimed new
blow at the country's export while
printers and pressmen continue an
parently determined to tie up that m
dustry at the country's largest city. to
the benefit Of other centers where
union control is sufficient to insure
the carrying out of agreements.
Still the eountry's trade despite
obstacles and uncertainties as TO ad-
ditional ultimate costs forced by un-
reasonable labor demands seems to
forge ahead slowly at a few cities but
so swiftly at most other centers that
the general turnover compares fairly
well with the exceptional activity of
midsummer and in most cases shows
gains over a year ago in volume or
value or both.
