BUSINESS NOW PROGRESSING SATISFACTORILY

Washington, To-day. President Roosevelt's ad- visers feel that business is pro- gressing salisfactorily. The moderate selback of the past few weeks is considered to be the normal reaction following the active Summer, when pro- duction exceeded consumption due to the manufacturers' ef- forts to "beat the gun" before the Codes raised wages and

costs.

It is now expected that with most Codes effective, produc- tion will more closely follow demand.

It is anticipated that several million additional workers will be re-employed before Jan- uary. United Press, per S. C. Gold Bar Co.
