No Early Hope for Relief Held
Out by Reserve Board

Washington, Dec. 6.--No hope of
carly relief from business depression
Is held out in the monthly statement

public tonight. Depression exists in
most communities. the statement said,
and one OF the basic causes so far as
the board could determine was CON
sumers' strike"--an evident public de-
termination ito wait for prices to
come down."
Manufacturing activities continued
to fall Off during November, the
board said. A wave of reduction" by
retailers has not, 1t added. resulted
in increased buying. which would
cause resumption OF production In
many lines. A corresponding de-
cline in the buying power" reflected
in the decreased volume Of trade Of
al kinds also was noted. -.
1t Is impossible" the board con-
tinued. Ito estimate the extent to
which the completion of the readjust-
ment process may involve further
siackening Of employment and the in
crease OF commercial embarrassment.
The favorable elements In the Inn
mediate situation are the improve
ment Of transportation and easing OF
credit conditions"
The board said there was a ten
dency by some retail merchants to at.
tempt to realize on stocks at the par.
ticular days prices, but that reports
from the various reserve districts in
dicated that there was also a counter
sentiment among merchants to make
their profit regardless Of the current
