news LETTERS FROM
Administration DIVISION

Enough progress has been made
since mid-August to prove that the
lows of the year definitely are in the
past, and that the turning point for
business has been reached" according
to Dun and BradstreetD Review for
October 5.
Tit continued expansion Of CONNER
cial loans would tend to confirm this
feeling. For the week ended October
3,member banks in the Federal Reserve
system report $34 million in loans to
business. This marks the eleventh
weekly increase in the longest upward
movement in this class of bank credit
in several years.
The August increase in machine
tool orders, after a six-months' decline,
a1so indicates tht trend toward ad-
vancing production activity. The nj
Be index rose to Ala compared with
BAT in July
Meanwhile, another advance was re-
corded by the N. Y. Times index of
business activity for the week end
ed September 29th, carrying the in
dex to 1877 from 1928 the previous
week. Resumption of operations af-
ter the textile strike brought the
index for cotton cloth production to
61.7, compared with 45.8 the previous
week. Electric power output, steel
mill activity and automobile produc-
ton also mved upward.
Settlement of the textile strike finds
that industry in the most favirable
inventory position in years, particular
" as regards silk, wool and rayon, ac-
cording to the NIBC. Since retail
sales of textiles and apparel have
been large, requirements are in order
and a more-than-seasonal squirt in
production is possible.
So far this year, owe one billion
dollars have poured into Treasury
vaults. This showing is ~ per cent
bstter than last year. The continued
increase in the number CT small coins
reflects the greater activity in COM
mercial channels.
a striking feature Of the RFC state
ment concerning their SIS billion OF
committees since the beginning of the
recovery program, is the $3.50 million
of approved applications which have
been cancelled by applicants because
Of improved conditions.
Banks representing more than rs
per cent of the total commercial bank
resources of the country have accept
ed contracts Of insurance in order to
make modernization loans, the FEEDER
al Housing Administration announces.
A day by day increase of 40 per cent
in the value of applications is report
ed, with Az millions in loans to about
10000 people already approved.
Due to the Federal Housing Pro
gram, the hardware trade regards the
fall outlook as the best in 5 years.
Unit production for the year to date
has averaged 20 per cent to 80 per
cent higher than in the 1888 period.
Sales during the first six months OF
1884, were 40 to so per cent higher
than in the 1888 period. The output
Of farm hardware has shown an ave-
rage increase Of so per cent The
movement of goods in the builders
division is now gaining from week to
week, while sales o f paints, plumbing
supplies, furnaces and heating equip
ment give promise of making expan
sion for the last quarter of 1884, the
largest in several years.
