BOSTON, November 7.-Conditions In
al the principal industries In New
England are steadily improving with
the exception Of the trade in the bet
ter grade of boots and shoes. In tho
high.Erade show business. refusal OF
orranized labor to accept wage reduc-
tions Is causing restriction OF output
and In some cases the closing down OF
factories, manufacturers declaring
that it Is impossible to meet western
competition. The textile mills continue
to be very busy. although sales OF the
lower grade OF cotton goods have
fallen Oh somewhat because OF the
htfh price of cotton.
The paper industry is In distinctly
b<tter shape and improved demand is
rnanifesting itself for lumber and

more hopeful and Unemployment is
decreasing: Retail trade Is display
ing seasonal improvement. Sentiment
in banking circles Is quite confident
that the business tide has turned
definitely for the better.
The improvement in some OF the
