THE BUSINESS oUr1ooK.

In the latest issue OF Henry Clewss
Financial Review he notes a distinct
Improvement in the business situa-
ton. He says:
President Harding's leadership and
his success In dealing with cong css,
as shown by the modification of the
oil duties at his request and the ap-
parent intention to lay aside the tariff
until the question of tax reform has
been settled, are proving an extremely
hopeful factor in the restoration OF a
There is now full confidence that
the excess profits tax will be repealed
and some relief at least given in re-
gard to surtaxes before the end of the
session. The development of what ap-
pears to be a definite plan for effect
ing settlement between the govern
ment and the railways has helped
railroad stocks during the past week
and has encouraged outside buying.
Improvement in orders for Etruc-
tural steel Is partly due to better con-
ditions in the interior of the country
and is partly a response to the cuts
that have already been made in quo
tations. There is also an improved ex-
port demand for leather, while the
establishment of some important for
eign credits indicates the restoration
of better conditions in connection with
the financing OF our export trade, AL
together sNe week has been a distinctly
hopeful period, not so much as for
what has taken place as for the
brighter outlook on the future which
is afforded
There was an increase of about 81
per cent in structural steel buying
during June Revival OF manufacture
ing is noted in a number of the prin-
cipal producing districts and employ
ment conditions are decidedly better
in many parts Of the country. There
has been a decided check to the DOWN
ward movement of prices and an ap-
parent approach to completion of the
readtustment process in a number Of
industries.
Further reductions or suspensions OF
dividends have been few. and while
this Is partly due to the fact that
meetings of directors at which finan-
cial action is to be taken are not so
numerous as they had been during
June, # is also evident that the
changes which had given rise to divi-
dend curtaiiment are approaching
their close. Prospects for the clear
| ing up of the sugar situation and the
! financing connected with it are better
| than they have been. and it is prob
able that they will reach a definite
conclusion within a short time.
