BY THE CHANCELLOR THE EXCHEQUER IN A SPEECH AT A LUNCHEON OF THE NATIONAL UNION OF
MANUFACTURERS.
"
Sir John Simon said that with the international situation so troubled and uncertain as at present; even limited indications of improvements were doubly significant and encour- aging.
He referred to the rise of whole- sale prices in the non-ferrous, me- tals class between June and October and said that so considerable a change could not be attributed en- tirely to the fall in sterling.
The steady rise in the index of industrial activity in the United States was more than a revival of the stock and share markets. It represented an industrial quicken- ing bound to have repercussions on world trade.

"Figures for our own industrial activity when due allowance is made for the timelag are also show- ing signs that the United
Kingdom is beginning to benefit by an upward movement."
