Steady Improvement Shown
Throughout Country in
Business Review.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February l5.-Partly
In anticipation of a good Spring peak
Of consuming demand rather than on
the basis of present pressure, basic in
dustrial activity throughout the coun-
try continues to increase steadily and
it Is becoming increasingly probable
that the low point of recession has
been passed and that definite uptrend
is under way, says the Business Week
In it's report covering the week end
ing February Is.
Immediate building activity is some
what weak pending Spring, but plans
are piling up fast. In the latest weeks
records there are signs that general
trade is tagging less behind industry.
CarloadingS and check money turnover
picked up early in February and COM
modify prices have tended to strengthen
after acute weakness.
The worldwide: and particularly the
country wide, easing of central bank
rates is of future rather than immediate
significance Its effects will show them
selves in four or five. months and may
be startling. Current money rates are
low enough and general enough to
provide the basis for exceptionally great
Fall business expansion. After Febru-
airy hooooos have been passed, the stock
market will probably begin to do some
forecasting along this line.
Although most weather signs are
reassuring, politics are piling up some
thunder heads on the horizon in Farm
Board and ANTITRUST policy.
