Midsummer Retail Business
Shows Some Improvement,
Signs of Good Fall Trade.

Washington, July 31-Business re
action in basic lines of industry still
was reflected during July in volume
of business, extent of employment and
depression of production, said the
monthly review of general economic
conditions issued Sunday by the fed
eral reserve board.
Copper and zinc were said to suffer
from lack of demand and extreme de-
preston of prices. The board declar-
ed there had been noticeable improve
ment in production of cement and
structural steel as result of the
growth in building operations.
Retail Business Better.
Midsummer retail business, the
board asserted. has been in some re-
spects better than usual, while the out
look for a satisfactory autumn busi-
ness in a number of lines, such as knit
goods and cotton textiles. was declared
to be decidedly encouraging. Consum-
ers' demand, as reflected in the volume
of retail trade, continued as good as,
or better than, at this time last year.
Continuing prospect of excellent
food crops was declared to be the most
hopeful feature in the general outlook.
Little change in cotton crops was noted
with about two thirds Of last years
production expected.
Prices Firm.
Price changes during the month have
shown no pronounced tendency, the
board stated Greater stability was
in the textile, boot and
shoe industries, although important
declines have taken place in other lines,
such as iron, steel and, particularly.
The unemployment situation has re-
mained practically unchanged, accord
ing to the review. with labor anthori-
ties reporting serious depletion Of the
savings of men who have been out of
work, as we'll as of unemployment
funds of trade unions.
Money Rates Easier.
Desire to see resumption Of full
the board said, apparently
has led to operation Of some plants on
q non-profit basis, with wage scales
reduced or employees
working on part time.
Money rates have become distinctly
easier, the review continued, but fluc-
tuations in exchange and unstable for
eign financial conditions have prevent
ed any material improvement in for
eign trade.

EXPLOSIONS CAUSE
BIG PROPERTY LOSS
Thirty Persons Injured by Flying Glas. and
Debris Taken to Hospital; Window Display
of Jewelry Stores Scattered About Street.

Minneapolis, July 31.-Thirty per.
sons .were taken to the general hos
pital about 100 others were treated
elsewhere for minor injuries and prop
erty damage estimated at $4,000 was
caused by a series Of eight explosions
in down town Minneapolis late Satur-
day night and early Sunday. None OF
the injured are hurt seriously and all
except five were released from the
hospital this afternoon.
Most of those hurt were cut by fly
ing glass or were bruised and stunned
when thrown to the pavement.
The first explosion occcrred shortly
after 1890 o'clock last night and was
believed to have been caused when a
short circuit in power cable manhole
at Sixth street and Nicollet avenue
ignited sewer gas. The manhole cover
was blown about 20 feet and flames
shot into the air. A number of per-
sons were injured here.
Crowds Gather.
A crowd of several thousand quickly
gathered despite efforts of police and
firemen to keep them back. A few
moments later another explosion oc-
Cured in a manhole across the street.
Twenty-Five persons, injured in the
second blast, had to be taken to the
hospital.
Many women tainted and childreh

AGAINST

DIFFICULT TASK
Unsanitary Conditions
Reported Responsible
for Present Epidemic.
Starving Population Is
Moving South and
Carrying Infection.

Riga, Letvia, July 31.-(By The As.
sociated ress.)-The task of fighting
the present serious cholera epidemic
in soviet Russia is magnified in its
difficulties by the terrible unsanitary
state existing virtually throughout the
country, says DR.. N. Semashko, com
missar of public health of the soviet
government, writing in the Moscow
Izvestia.
Dirt in the towns is such that even
in dry weather persons who are for
tunate enough to have overshoes, walk
in the streets in them. The sewage
and water supplies are in terrible dis
repair" Doctor Semashko writes.
=, Added to this, says the doctor. is the
mass migration, as if it has been mali
ciously planned, distributing the infec-
tion from one place to another for
thousands and tens of thousands of
versts. The starving population of the
Volga is moving to the south as an
avalanche, sowing on its way infec-
ton and death.
"The cholera has already developed
into big epidemic in the Rostoff,
Volga, Voronesh and Orel govern
ments. Scattered outbreaks have been
discovered in the most widespread To-
calities of the republic"
