Business in New England
Showing Reliable Advance
BY ElSON b. SMITH.
Special Correspondent Of The Star.

BOSTON, September 25.-There are
two big factors in evidence In tho
business situation Of New England
today. The first is the tendency of
commodity prices to advance and the
second is the scarcity of skilled
labor.
New England's business has now
advanced to a point where there is no
loneerI any real question as to
whethet the next three months are
going to be good or bad. The only
question now is how good business
will be and how much money business
men are going to make.
Optimism in business and bank
ing circles is almost universal and
manufacturers, jobbers and mer-
chants are more worried about
whether they will have the goods to
deliver than whether they can sell
them.
