BRADSTREET'S REVIEW
By Associated Press

New York, April 1.-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say:
 Reaction from before Easter ac- tivity and a wide spread cold wave, which latter appears to have damaged early fruit and vegetables but not winter wheat have robbed the appar- ently general tendency toward moder- ate Improvement of much of it's uni formity, according to telegrams 10 Eradstreet's this week. On the whole however. distributive trade seems 10 have fairly held it's own, as has manu- facture and industry. gains In some lines of the latter .offsetting losses elsewhere. whereas collections have again sagged after two weeks i'm provement. The irregularity hitherto noted in reports from different branch es of trade and areas of country is still manifest to, perhaps, more ex treme degree, and general character izatien is just as difficult as ever ex- cept that 1t may be said that imme- diate need buying characterizes trade in spring goods, while fall buying, except in instances noted in recent weeks is done with caution approach ing timidity

Hubbard Bros,

New York, April 1.--( Special. Jour market remained quiet during the en- tire session. Interest was centered on the probable outcome of the British coal strike and its influence on British labor troubles in general. Consequent ly the market was very narrow and remained dormant a few points under opening prices. The conference be- tween the war finance board and southern bankers is looked forward to as to it's possible outcome.
 Any favorable action by the board will cause a generally better feeling through. the entire cotton growing states, as a little needed help at this time will not be amiss. A release of frozen credits will aid farmers and shippers materially At the moment the trade is content to look on and await new factors, and until such time as fresh news presents itself, we may look forward to q quiet and unchanged market. although eventually we expect gradual improvement.

BONUS MEASURES UP
 AT CAPITOL TODAY
Military Affairs Committee and Ap- preparations Body Hear
 Claims Jointly.

Hartford. March 3-The whole sub- ject of a bonus to war veterans or fi- nancial relief of some other kind was threshed out in the house chamber of the capitol this afternoon. The mili- mittee sat jointly. The attendance was very large.
 The bills considered were those of Mir. Dunn of Hartford for a cash bonus; of MT. Hickey of Stamford for an increase in the present relief fund and that of Senator Golden for a monthly cash allotment to correspond with length of foreign service.
 Opinion regarding the bills has been divergent. the American Legion being divided between those of Mir. Dunn and Mir. Hickey. while the Vet erans Of Foreign Wars want a bonus based on their service overseas.
 Before the hearing it was generally stated that the strongest rally would be for the Hickey bill. which would increase the present allotment of s2,- 5O0.ooo in Liberty bonds, the income direction of the American Legion.
 Just what amount would be added, was not stated, but the supporters of this bill expected it 10 be a generous one.
 Other hearings which drew atten- ton were those on employment of women and children and on intimida ton before the labor committee and on various school matters. before the education committee.
