Roberts (From the Monthly Bank Letter for October Issued by The National City Bank of New York) THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1924 There is apparent in business cire Ces some disappointment that the mdustrial which was quite no- ticeable in did not develop into a more in September. We think, however, ull things considered, that the vol- ume of trade in recent mondis and the present trend in industry should ie regarded ay quite satisfactory. Phe falling off of production during the past sis months has been tor the rally August most part iu lines that were very uctive in the preceding month: and whieh evidently bad —accume- lated « surplus of goods.

Here, also, however, there is the consola- tion that stocks of goods have been diminishing and that a turn cannot be long delayed. The shoe industry has not been right for some time, but here there has been decided recovery. Wage concessions have been made recently in the principal Massachusetts cen- ters and there is a general report of better business. These are the worst spots in in- dustry, although copper and oif are en- titled to mention when Yhe roll of the depressed is called. Both are close to the lowest prices on record.

The consumption jot copper in this country in the first six months of this year is said to have been no less than in the corre- sponding period of last year, In the | case of oil it is the old story of sup- plies accumulating beyond the ability of producers and middlemen to carry them. Experience in all lines teaches |that the only cure for such a situas tion is to have prices drop to a point where part of the production be- comes unprafitable. However, lower prices resulting from a production which overruns normal demands is not « symptom of industrial depres- sion, lt is a notable fact that through- out the past six months the volume ot bank clearings or debits has been running somewhat ahead of last year, and although the loadings of reve- uc-ireight have been under last year, the deficit has been largely in coal, and a few industries recognized }as below normal. Apparently industry on the whole | has been better than holding its own, and the reports as to the movement of merchandise and prospects éor trade are almost everywhere better Of course it. these reports as to in- creasing distribution are well-found- ed, industry will inevitably be quick ened, Fundamental Considerations There is a tendency in judging the busine individual industries to get so clos to it that there is a lack of per- spective and danger of not seeing jhe woods for the trees. While it j!s sometimes the case that the state of actévity in given industries is dominated fer the time being by con- ditions within them, as in the case of coal mining and cotton goods production in recent months, the} most potential influences usually are of a general character, affecting all industries and causing reactions from each upon ali the others, Local conditions, or conditions peculiar to rarticular industries, are uivally tem- poriry, giving way cither to adjust- | ments within or to the influence-of a rising general tide of Prosperity. | At the present time certain de- velopments of great importance are | to be noted which make for the in- | auguration of a period of general | prosperity. A pronounced change for the better has come over the gricultural situation. The final es- |timates of all the crops are better |than the early estimates. This is especially true of wheat, and the wheat-growing sections have been the ones that have suffered most in the depression since 1920. More over, owing to the smaller Canadian pred uctione and a light harvest in Europe, the increased yield in this country is accompanied by higher prices. The greatest drawback to stable industrial conditions in this country since 1926 has been the unbalanced relations between agriculture and the other industries, which has limited the purchasing power of the largest single group of consumers. That situation is in the way of being very much mitigated if not wholly re- lieved. Upon two previous occasions the recovery of agriculture from pro- tracted periods of depression has at dates yet to respondingly ligh other offense wh from Germany, from] punished.

In our opinion and the conditions are now favorable the people who are thinking chiefly of the menace of reviving competi- tion, are thinking of consumption as) a fixed quantity, whereas consump- tion is a highly variable quantity, depending altogether upon well-bal- anced. production, The only remaining economic con- dition that would seem to be neces- of prosperity more notable than any in the past is an abundance of liq- uid capital and credit, support enterprises in any and every direction in which development is needed. That requisite also is pres- ent. Never has the business com- munity been more amply equipped with financial resources, and the normal development of the past ten years has been held back by the war. The Cloud Over Business not business go forward with the confidence which seems to be war- ranted? The most reasonable explan- tion is to be found in the inharmo- nious relations that have been devel- oping in ‘the industrial organization. No matter what may be the size of an organization, from a football team to the all-inclusive industrial organization by which society sup- plies its wants, it cannot achieve success or prosperity without team work.

With the growth of popu- lation and the increase of special- ization, the organization becomes more intricate, more delicately bal- anced, more dependent upon mutual confidence and inutual loyalty, but increasingly subject to misunder standings, misrepresentations ud spasmodic swings of public opinion. It is evident that the forces mak- ing for disorganization and ior the throw of the existing. order ot individual liberty and individual ini- tiative have been ning ground in Fecent years. and this year are mak. ing a more formidable showing than they have been able to make hereto: fore. This has heey accomplished by a ceaseless campatgn of misrep- resentation and falschood, until rep- etition and reiteration have inisied millions of honest andy ten= tioned people. It is true, as cite cheerfully said, that the nation has been holding elections for 140 ind not { been ruined by any of them down to this time, but even so it has had serious experiences and narrow e¢: moreover, it has never faced so radi an attack upon its institutions as this which has been developing in recent years, Moreover, if the people who are making this attack believe the misrep- resentations which their leaders utter it is difficult to see how they could fail to adopt the radical measures they ad- vocate, in the event of their coming to Power, ‘That the radical movement has chance of carrying the country this year nobody believes, but that there is a Possibility of no electoral choice, which would involve a protracted contest in the two houses of Congress with un- certain results must be recognized. Moreover, it would be unfortunate to have this radical coalition become even the second party in numerical strength, because it would be a con- stant drag upon progress and men- ace to security. It is deplorable that an industry of such vital importance to the counry as the transportation industry, should, be made a target of ‘attack in a national campaign, and even more extraordiiat that its employes in large numbers, represented by the officials of some of their organizations, should join in the ttack. It means the cultivation of an- tagonism where in the interest of the Public service there should be coopera- tion. The attack on the railroads, how- ever, is only part of a general attack upon the private management and own- ership of industry, These conditions are not favorable to industrial efficiency or Progress, but are depressing to the spirit of confir “ee and coierinise which has been characteristic of all our great periods of development. : i some the workrooms, age, the Federation of Music Clubs nounced ovine the organization | state fair grounds es, piano and vi- includ- roof.
