OUTLOOK FOR
1921 IS GOOD
Financial and Industrial
Leaders Hopeful

II bank ciearings and railroad traf.
fic are any criterion, the business
outlook for 1921 is extremely eneour-
aging. according TO financial and in
dustrial leaders.
Here are a few OF the things TO
which they point. things that are
not generally appreciated:
Railroad passenger traffic in Seat
Ito during 1890 was the largest in
the history OF the city.
Bank ciearings for 1920 were
s2,oT2, 63s .43s. as compared with only
s2.0si .0os .335 In 1919.
Shipments OF lumber by water car
rier, both foreign and domestic ports.
were much greater in 1920 than DUR
ing the previous year. according 10

reau. Statistics on rail lumber ship
ments are being compiled.

coal production in 1920 was $4,000

Anthracite production IN 1920 was
