the year ended June 80. 1921. the
last figure available, was f2?.ao'.-
5,55s. nearly s150,00Q,000 in Ameri-

The total amount Of Friendly So

drink bill representing waste) was
nearly twenty times the thrift

Invalid and old age pensions

spent more than six and one-hati
times rs much for liquor.
War pensions for the year ended
June 80. 1920 totaled f5.S12.1 90
This was about one-fifti the
amount spent for liquor.
The states Of the commonwealth
spent more money for booze than

more than one-fifth of the amount

All the several state charities

pockets of Australians more than
ten times that amount.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS

During the laSt thirty Gays. com,
mercial and industrial activity has
reflected the usual stimulation OF
fall and winter demand. Retail
trade In the larger cities is more
active than at the corresponding
period Of last year, and, seasonal
acceleration is evident through out
the country. Uncertainty as TO the
volume of purchases by the, farm
fers of the grain and livestock states
has not been dispelled, however.
Wholesale trade has been good
throughout the current period.
Stocks of many kinds OF goods in
the hands both. of wholesale and
retail dealers are light, but neither
this fact nor threats: of higher
prices have been sufficient to, IN
duce buyers TO make substantial
forward purchases. The conser
vatism shown justifies the belief
that the catastrophe of 1920 has
not been forgotten.
Total car ~loadings and loadings
of merchandise and Of less than
carload lots are practically at the
record levels established in 1920.
Despite car shortage, especially for
coal and for the movement of farm
products. the railroads are hand1-
ing freight remarkably well. Coal
has been rapidly moved to the lake
ports for shipment to the north
west before the close of navigation.
Receipts of wheat at primary mar
kets to date, while somewhat less
than for the corresponding period
of 1921. are well above receipts for
1920. The livestock movement is
satisfactory. Cotton is moving
more rapidly than in 1921. Some
Industrial consumers are beginning
to accumulate coal reserves. and

Immediate delivery is evidence of

Der 1920 Railroad orders con-
tinue heavy. Demand from the
automobile and building industries
is good. due account being taken
of seasonal declines. Buying by
agricultural implement makers is
still light The indications seem
to be that demand for steel may
slacken somewhat during the re-
mainder of the year, but that re-
coyery will be made early in 1928.
Demand for machine tools is fair.
The wooden and worsted indus
try is at between 80 and 50 per
cent OF capacity. Boot and shoe
manufactures range from 80 per
cent. in New England to capacity
at ST. Louis. Cotton consumption
in October was 5S3.950 bales,
compared with 4s4.745 and 481.-
S25 bales in october 1921 and 1929
respectively, October output of
automobiles made a new high rec
ord for that month. Building is eA-
ceptionally active for the season
this condition being reflected in the
various industries producing build

Change In All Russia
1T cannot be said that political 'on-
