STATE OF "A

The state of trade over the country
reported by Bradstreet's for last week
had more life. Divergent influences
noted. Price reductions and uncer-
tainty versus advance of fall season
and necessity of decisions. Cautious
hand-to-mouth buying noted every
where. Jobbing and retail distribution
better. Industry slightly more active
and collections a shade better. Crop
reports best in corn. Warm, dry
weather needed if record crop is to
be had. Cotton damaged by wet
weather and weevil. August showed
record break in commodity prices.
Weekly food index up this week. Large
wheat exports. Stock market steady.
Bonds strong. New wooden goods
prices lower.
