‘ THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1934 RISING TREND IN TRADE, BUSINESS CONTINUES STRONG Commercial Agency Says Gains Over Year Ago Reach ‘Staggering’ Figures New York, Feb. 16—(4)—The ris- img trend in trade and business vol- ume continued without abatement, and “sporadic instances of improve- ment now are giving way to proofs of a more definite general revival,” said the weekly Dun & Bradstreet trade review Friday. Some of the gains as compared with a year ago “reach nearly staggering percentages,” the review asserted, pointing out that this time a year ago “the nadir of the past century had been touched by nearly all branches of commercial and indus- trial activity.” “The high level to which both mer- cantile and manufacturing business has been lifted,” continued the Re- view, “was revealed by reports from all sections of the country this week, which brought a unanimity of ex- Pression indicating continued, im- provement. “With some moderation of the sub- |zero temperatures of a week earlier, which slowed down transactions in the agricultural districts, retail sales pushed ahead boldly, as the larger in- Gustrial payrolls offset the layoffs of the CWA. “In consumptive goods, such as foods, wearing apparel, shoes and mil- Yinery, demand is widening rapidly, with prospects now more assured that in both textiles and shoes the spring business will exceed that of the past | four or five years. “The more moderate temperatures and the favorable weather prevailing on Lincoln's birthday brought out the largest crowds that retail stores have held since Christmas. Sales on both last Saturday and Monday nearly equalled the total of the best days during the December shopping period. “In the weekly industrial indices, advances are becoming more consis- tent and the spread is being widened constantly from the positions of a year ago.” SILVER PRICES BOOM New York, Feb. 16.—(4#)—The silver | market extended its recent -advance again Friday, bar metal gaining % of ® cent an ounce to reach the 46-cent. level for the first time since 1930.
