tivity in the manufacturing and whole
sailing sections is broadening. Returns
OF statesmen visiting lctaiicrs' have
been OF an encouraging nature to the
trade. The numerous individual book
ings, however small in volume. are in
dicatjvc of greater confidence or the
part Of retailers garding the future.
The aggregate also indicates more lib

In addition to the recent gyrations
in the price Of platinum (Which have
brought the price down to $95 per

markets exhibit increased strength.
Several si%Rblo purchases of rough

some relief to the cutting industry
