LAV AMI Burnous bplowt Department Of Commerce Weekly Business Review Retail trade was somewhat dis appointing during the greater part of October, according to the nation-wide business survey con ducted by the Department of Commerce. Unseasonably warm weather cut into Fall buying and resulted in a decline in volume from the previous week in many areas. In some cities, including New York, declines were shown from the same period last year, but the whole October business has been better than last year. Wholesale trade has not been | subject to the fluctuations appar ent in retail lines, but has shown steady advances. Buying of goods for the holiday trade has been strong with indications that all lines of this class merchan dise will surpass the volume of the previous year by a good mar gin. Department of Commerce re ports from 33 key cities show that considerable unemployment is being absorbed by private in dustry. These reports also show that Federal and State projects are getting under way more rapidly, with a consequent de crease in the ranks of the up employed. A somewhat higher level of operations in the lumber, textile and petroleum industries during October is indicated by the week ly survey. Lumber orders and shipments have been below the level of production during the month but demand remains rela tively strong. Cotton consump tion was maintaining September gains. Reports from 117 South ern pine mills showed shipments increased 46% over the same week in 1934. New York and Chicago re ports indicated considerable buy ing of the new model automo biles which is expected to be con siderably stimulated by the show beginning in New York on November 2. A 16% increase in employment in the Grand Rapids furniture industry during the first eight months of the year over the same period of last year was report ed. A gain of 41%' in piano shipments during September over the same month last year, was reported by the National Piano Association of Chicago. The semi-luxury trade is also feeling the impetus of increased buying power, sales of candy manufac turers having gained 66.7% in September over the previous month and 14.2% over Septem ber 1934. In crop regions, farmers were cashing in on good yields with prices received relative to prices paid running higher than in five years. Cash farm income for the first eight months pf the year rose to $4,020,000,000 from $3,754, 000,000 in the same period of 1934, while cash inoome for the entire year is estimated at $6, 700,000,000. The farm machin ery and equipment industry pre dicts sales of $360,000,000 to $400,000,000 for the year. The cotton spinning industry revived in September to 93.9% of capacity on a single shift basis, compared with 64.3% in September last year, with 22,. 688,818 of the 29,808,220 spind les active at some timer during the month. A trade balance of $38,686, 000 in favor of the United States resulted from the foreign trade activity in September, the United States having sold $198,198,000 of merchandise abroad and im ported goods to the value of $161,658,000. literary Digest (continued from front page) lated returns is anticipated some time in November. The Literary Digest states that just prior to the 1982 election it predicted Roosevelt would get 69.86 per cent, of the popular vote in his campaign against Hoover. The official returns showed that the President' re ceived 69.14 per cent, of the Roosovelt-Hoover vote revealing an error of 0.72 per cent, in the magazine’s forecast. In the spring of 1932 a poll of the national sentiment on Pro hibition forecast a popular vote of 76.06 per cent, for repeal. Satnrns trnm fW tions which brought about the demise of the Eighteenth Amend ment in 1933 showed a combined percentage of 73-41 foe repeal, evidencing a deviation of 1.64 per cent, error in the magazine’s balloting on the Prohibition ques tion. ~‘ Men watch the clock most when sleeping on the job. % YOUNG PIONEER When several hundred families were sent to Alaska from the Middle West to settle the Matanuska Valley, the Red Crosa sent a nurse, Madeleine de Foras, to remain with them for a year to help protect their health.
