Change Of Sentiment

William A. Law, president OF the
First National Bank, in reviewing the
business and financial outlook says:
1.-The extent to which sentiment has
improved is indicated by the fact that
three days after the launching Of the
great coal strike involving several hun
dred thousand men seventy five stocks
advanced to new high record for the
year on the New York Stock Exchange.
Quite apart from speculative conditions,
this movement is Of high significance, for
no such broad advance as that could
have taken place with the public enter
tanning serious doubts as to the ulti-
mate revival Of trade and finance. Busi.
ness, in some respects, fs better than Il
was month ago, but the improvement
in sentiment is much more pronounced
than the increase in the volume Of
orders. This bctterment means a great
deal. for Il represents a gradual re.
vival of confidence throughout the Nation
due in part to the striking rise In grain
prices and the belated recognition of the
benefits accruing from the general seal.
ing down of inflated Inventories. The
country IL doing business everywhere
upon a much safer price basis than last
year and, while there are troublesome
problems to work out, the Nation is
solving them in satisfactory man
ner."

Livestock Industry Hopeful

The livestock industry has set the
pace for agricultural readjustment and
indications are that it will continue
to exert dominating influence in the
return Of business to normal condi.
tions," according to a quarterly report
issued by 8. B. Stafford, president Of
the Chicago Livestock Exchange.
Hog prices are on q sound basis"
says the report. Continued light sup.
plies may be expected because of the
enormous losses the spring pig crop has
sustained.
Cattle should sell at higher levels.
We are on the verge of scarcity of
beef producing animals that would have
become acute before now had not the
depression caused an increase in mar.
keting at the same time it curtailed
consumptive demand"
There is heavy demand for breeding
animals. says the report, showing "the
faith of the producers in the future Of
the livestock industry"
'Since the turn of the year." the
report adds, livestock has been pulling
the farmer out of his predicament."
A high sheep market all summer is
forecast with the statement that lamb
prices have been the highest since the
decline from war levels.
