 After practically a year of liqulda- ton and deflation new forces are now making for gradual business recupera tion. Recovery has not yet extended to all lines, but encouraging indications are increasing in number. AlthougA some of the hopeful signs partly result from the influence of special demands such as the Easter requirements, the favorable features are also beginning to assume characteristics of perman- ency.
 The rapid crop advancement. the re- taxation from monetary tension and the greater stability of financial markets promote a better. feeling while. the trend toward resumption of building activity is a significant development Reflecting the latter movement, buying of steel has gained little, and the lumber industry, especially in the Pa cific northwest, is experiencing some revival
