Report Shows
Business Good

LOS ANGELES, Jan. Z. U.P)-Im-
portant industrial and commercial
groups Of Southern California have
held up well during last year es-
pecially when compared with av-
erages over the past year, the
Southwest Business Review issued
By the Los Angeles Chamber Of
Commerce said today.
A continuous increase in popu-
lation had its effect in many lines
of business. it was said, and the
depression in this section was not
so marked as in many other large
cities of the nation.
Due TO declines in two major in
dustrials, motion pictures and rub
Der, the employment index for the
month of December dropped Slight
ly, reaching a figure of 1876 as COM
pared to 97.0 in December Of 1929.
All lines Of employment, it was
indicated by the report, showed
some degree OF decline. The small
est drops took place in wearing ap-
parel and printing with motion pic
lures, millwork and iron and steel
taking the largest declines. The
Gil industry was about 10000 men
behind the figure of December
1929.
The reported pointed out that at
no time during 1890 did the en-
rloyment index drop below TO or
above 80.
This absence Of wide fluctuation
may be taken as evidence of 4 gen.
eral stability OF the industrial sit
uation here" the report said
Speculative building during 1890
vas held to a minimum, according
TO the report, while the outlook for
fairly good year in 1891 is salts
