The brick business has shown a slight better- ment and Jumber is doing well Steel production is proceeding with- out a check, and is responding to bet- terment in the oil fields, in buildin: and to the strong tone of the automo- bile industry. The leading automobile producer is employing more men than ever before.

The number of cars shipped abroad is exceeding that for any vear known in the industry. New models are hav- inz a decided appeal. and sales are better distributed among the various companies.

Bra makers predominate as buyers in local markets. As to zinc, galvanizers are buying only for a brief period in advance. The tourist season is turning out to be the best in years.

SOVIET GRAIN PROSPECTS. zust MOSCOW. Augu: 10 (Special) What began as one of the we ars in Soviet grain ory now has turned into a normal year. The loss caused by bad weather in the early Spring has been largely recouped by prompt re- sowing. An exceedingly good crop Siberia has offset the serious loss in the Ukraine It was estimated today that the total crop will exceed last year's crop of 76.- 750.000 tons. and may possibly exceed the banner vear of 1926, when the total was 78,300,000 tons. In othsr words, the danger of a critical shortage. whica was freely acknowledged in the early Spring, now seems to have been over- come.
