to report expanding order backlogs
and at the same time a new high
in production.
Available weekly statistical meas
urements generally concurred in
showing an upward trend for the
latest period. - Both of the COM
monly-used general business barom-
eters. bank clearings and freight
traffic, were higher In the week.
. = The commodity index reflected
a continued moderate advance in
wholesale prices. -
Despite the persistence of some
spottiness, retailers found definite
signs of underlying strength.
Not all regions noted the favorable
trend to the same degree. AS a rule,
areas in which heavy industries
were concentrated showed larger
gains in sales volume than others.
THE average increase over 1889
was between 7 and 10 per cent and
in some parts of the East. South and
Middle West. changes of better than
10 per cent were frequent.
New England and the Northwest
had fewer centers with substantial
advances than other regions, the
average improvement here being be-
tween and 6 per cent. Other re-
gions showed percentage increases as
follows: East, to Il; Middle West,
4 to Is; South, 9 to u; Southwest,
