ihtnK/tOB.—^American bB«l- aWed by biuioM pt (Jollars sm federal aad state soTem- ''.BMiits, appeared today to bare polled Itself more than a third of , tbo wpy ont of tbe ■ depression which began itnietly fire years F, ago this month. -Mo^ than two years have passed ^ce the absolute bottom of the depression was reached early in July, 19S8. Today both official and private business fi gures showed an Irregular up- course since that Jlme, In- "•rrapted temporarily fifteen Months ago by the banking pa ralysis. Responsible figures compiled by the Federal Reserve board showed today that industrial ac- tlrlty In the United States after ' reaching Its peak of 125 per I cent of the 1P23-25 average In m Jnne, 1929, 'declined rather pi steadily to 58 per cent in July 1932. The index rose slightly thereafter and tell to a ‘‘second bottom” of 59 per cent in March - Aa^culatlve boom a year ago ' carried it to 100 per cent In July, 1933. After another set back, activity began to rise slowly early this year to the current 85 per cent level. At this level activity had regained 40 per cent of the entire decline from June. 1929, to July, 1932. Reasons for the start of the depression and its possible end two years ago are a matter of conjecture among leading econo mists. Hundreds of such reasons have been advanced by various schools of economic thought and by politicians. Regardless of cause, leading Industrial barometers showed to- . ^ day that substantial progress w has been made toward recovery with widespread hopes of furth er improvement after the usual summer lull. More billions of government money are to be poured out over the next few months in a final effort to clinch tbe recovery. Ef forts over the remainder of the current year are believed likely in many quarters to determine whether the recent upturn is lastlag or merely a rise before another smash. Wreck Fatal DclaiJkre.
