Company.
IN YEAR ago practically all
~ observers of business con-
ditions were disposed to take an
optimistic view of the prospects
for the immediate future. Conf
dence in the financial situation
had been restored and a period of
active business development was
generally predicted. In view of
this the closing of books for 1923
Ikvill in many quarters incline to
a more or less puzzled retrospect
of the year in finance and in
dustry. Some explanation is
necessary for the remarkable
change from the booming mar
kets of last spring to the unmis-
taxable reaction Of the middle of
the year.
Anyone who will take the trouble
70 read over the story Of 1909 Or
1s95-each being two years after the
TWO preceding panic years-wil1 find
r an explanation. 1t was perfectly well
known that at the end of 1922 supplies
of goods in the hands OF either pro-
ducers or middle men had fallen 10
the exhaustion point. With restored
confidence the movement to stock up
began all along the line. This soon
developed into an impetuous food of
forward orders" and the inevitable
rising commodity prices. 1t lasted
until stocks were replenished; then
competitive bidding stopped.
Explanation Obvious
The remembrance of bitter personal
experiences In 1920 was too fresh in
thousands Of minds not to furnish a
perfectly sound explanation for the
caution attitude which Immediately
developed. There was a sudden and
Unmistakable cessation OF trade
activity. 1t was especially true in
the building trades; large projects in
were up lDT the time
being. The last half of the year saw
e 20 per cent shrinkage in iron and
steel output. a 80 per cent decrease
IN the Steel Corporations untitled
orders, and a 16 per cent average
decline on the Stock Exchange be-
tween April and October. II was the
sequence OF events which has in
variably occurred in the first revival
from the depression following an
American financial crisis. On al
earlier occasion Of such an experience
the result was to place industry on
a sound and normal footing. and the
months Of November and December
furnish basis for the belief that such
has been the result in 1923. There is
a very general feeling in financial
quarters that on no similar occasion
in the past have American markets
ended the readjustment process in
so strong and sound position as to-
4 days.

the books at the year end reveals
