CANADIAN GAIN
SEEN SLOWER

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-The Do
minion Of Canada may be ex,
pected to follow the United States
closely in economic recovery over
the coming year, according to the
Standard Statistics Company, al.
though at q somewhat slower
pace.
The official Canadian index of
general business, just published,
shows an average Of 99.7 for the
year 1885, compared with 93.5 in
1884, a gain Of 6.6 per cent.
Wholesale and retail prices have
risen 2 per cent and "a per cent
and bank debts actually declined
from $32. .867 ,000, 900 to $31,500,'
100000. Life insurance sales are
likewise down. but on the other
hand, there has been a slight
gain in bank deposits.
In construction, according to
the League Of Nations figures,
Canada has made greater percen-
tage gains than most other coun-
tries, but still stands close to
the bottom Of the list in its COM
parison with 1929 levels. The
principal unfavorable factor is
that the increase in employment
has failed to keep pace with the
increase in production, with rela-
tive gains Of So per cent for
employment and 17.6 for produc-
ton. in December over a year
earlier. Thus far the Dominion
government has taken no effect
i've steps to meet this situation,
the firm said.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-05-22

Reverberations of the convention of the Connecticut Young Demo- crats, which took place last month in Waterbury, have begun to sound, indications being that the success full drive to unseat John r. Robin- son of this city as state president is having further reaching effects. Leaders of the Young Democrats in the state who opposed Robinson for reelection last month are now in control of the executive committee of the Connecticut organization. This is in line with the Democrats prediction following the state con- vention when the makeup of the executive committee was made known.
 The committee is the governing body of the state organization and consists of the eight elective offl- cers, the executive secretary, the chairman and ce-chairman of the county organizations and the chair.
