A less pessimistic tone is taken this

velopments, says in part: Excellent
spring weather and the near approach Of
Easter have frightened up jobbing ana
retail trade. The former sends about tnc
best reports since the late summer or

in failures Is Indicated"
Noting continued hesitation and cur
rent price uncertainties with threatened
labor troubles in some industries tending
ITO accentuate the waiting attitude, Dun's
ReDieD declares that the hopeful aspects
in the situation are being more freely

lions OF u beginning OF spring building
activity In various parts Of the country.
The Re0iot0 adds: Comparative ease IL

Gus and frequently involving large
