Wage Issue a Hindrance. Money for building loans costs 6 to 8 per cent. Labor costs have not bgen reduced and negotiations pend- ing between employers and the build- ing trades unions show every indi- cation of ending in a deadlock. This week the Carpenters District Council, the Hoisting Engineers Union and the Painters Council rejected a proposal to reduce wages. These lunions are now working on the basic wages of $1.25 per hour. ) In general distributive lines busi- ness continues to show a satisfactory improvement. The clothing industry although sustaining some further ductions, reports the best two weeks since last fall. Manufacturers are beginning to buy raw materials in quantity. A leading shoe interest has covered its sole leather needs for the remainder of {this half year. gun, and will be sure.”” Then he adds If the new administration at ‘Washington disposes of our chief problems wisely, I see no reason why the present year should not witness a return to fairly normal business.

The circular declares: “The fundamental reason why the North Dakota bonds are not being readily sold is that bankers are afraid they cannot sell them. Investment bankers buy bonds in the capacity of merchants, to sell again. They try to buy Issues that they think will be popular with the public.” NEW YORK, April 1.—Merchants here declare that the “truth-in-adver- advertisers.

St. Paul showed a net deficit for the month, as did New York Central, Bos- ton & Maine and Detroit & Mackinac, Cadillac Motor Company reports full scheduled production to the first of June. V April 4 an important conference be- tween representative bankers of the south and the War Finan Corpora- tion will be held in this city, with a view of ascertaining if it possible for the latter to be of assistance to the south in financing cotton and other agricultural products of the money on this side as it is to de- velop a market in foreign countries for the products. The Standard Savings is prepared to carry on every business connected with modern banking. A progressive policy will be followed, though suffic ciently conservative to best serve commercial and financial interests. Formalities will be strictly tabooed, and earnest efforts on the part of offi- cials will be made to feature the “per- sonal touch,” which constitutes a necessary element to the banking business. In the commodious banking room of this new building, the wall and pil- wins the distinction of being the greatest leaf tobacco market in the world.
