NO SPECIAL RATE
FOR i. s. PAPER
All Federal Reserve Banks
Notified by Board of
Change.

The Federal Reserve Board has tele-
graphed all federal reserve banks that
it will approve a schedule of rates do
ing away with the preferential rate
heretofore given to paper secured by
certificates Of Indebtedness, the differ
entails in favor of paper secured by
other government obligations having
been abolished by action taken earlier
in the month.
Great activity in retail trade, strong
demand for goods and consequently
large volume of buying orders al
manufacturing plants. high and rising
prices throughout the country, and
full employment of labor at unprece-
dented wages, except in those cases
where employment has been rendered
unsteady and insecure as the result
of strikes or labor disturbances, are
the principal factors reported by fed
eral reserve agents, in a bulletin OF
financial business throughout the sew
eral federal reserve districts during
the month Of December issued today.
Anxiety Over Price Advance.
General anxiety concerning the con-
tinued advance in prices is exhibited.
while unfavorable foreign exchange
rates are regarded as likely to bring
about a reduction in exports which may
neceSSitate some readtustment of domeS-
tic industry. Labor disturbances dur
ing the month of December, according
to the bulletin, have on the whole been
and coal strikes reaching a practical
conclusion by resumption Of work.
In practically all districts primary
emphasis is placed on the general dis
tribution of purchasing power and the
freedom with which recipients Of wages
and salaries are expending their means
in the purchase Of goods.
Detailed reports from the several dis
tricts are included in the report.
Prices Hit Buying Power.
From sundry of the districts it is
noted that the growth of business is
far more noticeable in terms Of dollars
than in units Of production. There
are some in which very high prices
are already beginning to produce a
curtailment of buying power. This ap-
pears to be more largely true in the
country and outlying districts than in
the cities.
The banking situation is spoken of
as rejecting the high prices of goods
in the form of larger demand for ac-
commodation.
Increase in the cost of living is re-
ferred to as menace, and in some dis
themselves recognize this fact.
The work and save" program is re-
ported by some to be hackneyed or
obsolete.
Skilled Labor Slowing Up.
According to one report, much of
our skilled labor works only sufficient
days during the month to keep going.
that of destroying regular standards
of living and the recognized basis Of
prices"
The housing situation is reaching a
critical stage, which may result in
largely stimulating building opera
tfons. In the middle west. particularly
in industrial centers. the shortage is
said to be acute. Rents have advanced
very greatly in view of the standstill
of building operations and the in
crease of city populations, which have
called for much more extensive ac-
commodation.
