Important changes for the better wer
R seen in the credit situation, "distinc

eating increased ability of business t
settle its accounts.
The "wholesome improvement,
which the board's correspondent
1 found in alnTost every sectibh ap
neared to have been based largel;
1 ;?n the advance in cotton prices. A
\ result of the higher cotton value
'iquidation has taken place and whole
" sale nnd retail trade has been buoyei
up. the report said.
Marked improvement in the credi
" situation was cited by the review a
the noteworthy feature of busines:
; during the month, the board declar
ing that "taken all in all, from i
financial standpoint the month ha.
1 been in the main a period of distinc
encouragement."
The board noted only a slight in
- crease in the number of unemployed
This was likely to be offset by ;
" growth in demand for labor on th<
1 part of manufacturing industries.
1 Railroads have begun to., increasi
the number of their employees

West," the review continued, "and th<
' fact that building contracts hav<

promises partial employment in tha*
service during the autumn."
' There has been a steady and reason:
ably heavy movement erf agriculture'

centers, the board reported. Prices of
most of these have advanced tQ . ar

Improvement also was seen In th^
