' Washington, June 2. While "a defi nite turn for the better" , has been taken apparently by some branches of (industry and the business outlook for 1 the season continues generally more favorable, there is but little prospect of "an immediately sharp improvement ! of conditions," the Federal Reserve 1 Board declared Wednesday night in its i review of the financial and. economic i situation throughout the country dur ing May. i Recovery in production and distri bution has made progress during the monh, the. board said, but slowly and greatly retarded. However, it added, the more hopeful attitude which has shown itself among business men re cently has continued and is preparing the way for active development in some industries. Financially, the month was one of increasing strength and of more pros perous outlook, the board asserted, la various sections of the country, it was explained, there has been an easn ing of the demand for funds resulting in part from acceptance of lower price levels and partially from the adjust ment of business to new conaiuons. LACK OF UNIFORMITY. Irregularity and lack of uniformity still exist to a marked degree in the retail price field, the board observed. Serious obstacles to the final adjust ment of wages was forecast unless re tail prices moves much faster to their final basis. Adjustment between wages and prices, especially retail prices, is ex1 hibiting special difficulties, the board said, while re-adjustment in wages has been slow. Testability of wholesale prices, the board asserted, was retarding buying for future delivery in many lines, both in industries where recovery was m progress and in those which were still declining. In the wholesale and retail trade, there has been some recession, mainly seasonal, it continued, the re action being only sporadic, as gains made by business generally in preced ing months have been retained on the whole. ! FOREIGN TRADE ARRESTED. Foreign trade during the month was described as still arrested or depressed, with its movement continuing toward a more nearly equal balance' of im ports and exports. Especially note worthy in the foreign trade situation has been the volume of goods as reflected in the figures showing de creased foriegn shipments and increas ed receipts from aboard during the months, the board said. Unemployment was on the increase in May, the board reported, despite the anticipated improvement in the la bor market due to the opening of spring agricultural activities. wow ever, it added, voluntary unemploy ment haa been considerably augmented as a result of increasing labor diffi culties accompanying wage reductions. Agriculturally, the board declared, the situation during the month may the native sons of Georgia assemble for their monthly dinner. A wire was received Wednesday night from Mr. Hiers, accepting an in vitation to be the guest of the club here. An invitation had been sent him earlier in the day to be presont.
