PERIOD OF ANXIETY
AHEAD FOR BUSINESS
Steady Advance in Prices Is Coupled
With Reduction in
Production.

! Washington, Jan. 1.-American bust
ness feels anxious over what the fu.
ture holds, the federal reserve board
announced in its review of December
business conditions. The continued
advance in prices, the reduction In
production and the high cost of living
are regarded as forming "a commercial
meance
Although the retail trade shows great
activities and wholesalers and manu-.
facturers are piled with orders, the
growth in business, the report said, is
in terms of dollars and not in produc-
ton. High priced labor refuses to
work regularly and demands short
hours, with the consequent falling off
in production.
Uncertainty as to the developments
of the next three monhs is reftd
ing expansion in trade, the report said,
as cautious manufacturers are inclined
not to commit themselves far into
the future.
Labor unrest showed some abate.
ment during the month, but the idle
ness of workmen is regarded greater
problem than systematic strikes.
The housing congestion is expected
to be relieved by the increase in con-
struction, which the report predicts
value of undeveloped sites.
