Substantial Cuts Made.

After an apparent slowing down
in the price reduction movement DUR
ing midsummer, it has again reap
peared, and September saw substan-
tial cuts in well-known makes of au-
tomobiles, textiles, shoes and feathers
and other wholesale prices. Reduc-
lions have occurred in a variety OF
staples, including wheat. Changes In
prices have tended to make business
men and bankers cautious about fu-
ture commitments
Drops in prices have featured al
most all of the textile lines, agents
OF the reserve banks reported, and
they added that, due to reductions al
ready announced by wholesalers and
jobbers, the retailers are buying care
fully ana not in large quantities.
The retailers attitude was depicted
as necessarily conservative for the
reason a market with downward
trend leaves him the alternative OF
taking loss or keeping his shelves
stocked with high priced goods. Sim
liar influences were shown to be
bearing on the shoe and leather in
dustries. In these lines particularly
the reports of the board disclosed
the influence of az demand lessened
by high prices is strong and gives no
indicatio nof weakening. Because OF
this apparent sentiment, the review
stated, retailers are postponing buy
ing or are buying only for current re
qurements.

Pruction On Increase.
Although the board believed the
buying public alrgely was dominating
the market, it is said that labor and
production were having marked Ell
feet on prices. There was much evil
dence. it said, of increased efficiency
on the part of labor and as a result
production was on the increase and
factory operation beginning to APP
proach normal.
Summed up. the boards findings
were that business conditions now
are definitely on the road toward
stability OF as great and confirmed
a nature as the disturbed position OF
the world at large permits.
Continuance of the process OF re-
adjustment in business and industry
has been an outstanding feature OF
the last month"; the review said
This had been accomplished by price
reductions and by resumption OF
work in branches of industry where
hesitation as to future outlook has
led to suspension.
