The senate in approving the in

Times staff Writer

Depression is beating a slow re-
treat, with industry and business
bombarding it right and left, reports
of definite improvement in economic
conditions prove today.
From nearly every line of trade
come indications that the oppressive
four-year reign of hard times is
nearing an end.
A survey conducted by The Times
bring definite proof that the up
turn has started, With retail stores
reporting noticeable gains in sales,
factories finding orders more nu-
merouS, and unemployment decIin-
ing.
Among interesting results of the
survey are:
Average daily bank clearings in
May were considerably higher than
in April, March, and February.
Noticeable improvement in real
estate and rental activities.
Reduction in demands on town
ship trustees for relief.
Twenty per cent decrease in two
months in number of men employed
on made-work labor jobs.
Many firms calling back some
former employees.
Manufacturers flooded with in
quiries, many reporting increased
production schedules.
Retail prices of many items high
er, and others scheduled to be in
creased as soon as new shipments
for which the dealers had to pay
more, are received.
Stores Show Gain
One downtown department store
reported forty-two departments in
May were ahead of May, 1882, with
the total volume, in dollars and
cents, ahead of the same period a
year ago, despite prices being lower
than in the former period.
Particularly heavy were sales in
ladies' ready-to-wear and in furni-
ture departments.

in April and May revealed a salts
factory gain over the same period
a year ago, with new merchandise
orders costing more and some lines
difficult to obtain.
Stores generally reported paving
higher prices for articles ordered to
replenish their stocks, and this rise
in price must be added to retail
selling price as soon as present
stocks are exhausted, they said.
Prices of some articles have been
forced upward already.
Made Work Drops
One wholesale firm, in receiver
ship about two years, reported max
ing a profit of several thousand dol
lars in May, the first month to show
a profit since start of receiverShip.
The rise in prices, with further
rises in prospect, has resulted in
city department heads receiving in
Structions to check up on their fu-

by Albert Losche, city purchasing
agent, before any more advances are
made.

This became evident today as con-

labor leaders, and tentatively-ap-
pointed officials of the new admin
istration got under way at head
quarters established by General
Hugh S. Johnson, who is to adj
minister the law.
The iron and steel industry is
anxious to have a thirty two hour

as close to the thirty-hour week as
possible.
