Unemployment Rises ~ As Payrolls Decrease

Continued consumer and a consequent decline in business is reported by the Indiana Business ‘Review, cation of the Indiana university bureau of business research. Although there are still acute shortages of consumer and indus-| trial goods as a whole, inventories are close to normal proportions, As a result, production for many industries will have to be governed by the eurrent volume of consumer bttying in the “months to come. The” findings of the bureau indi{cate a period of uncertainty grow-| ling out of such present conditions| as the adqustment of prices to recent changes in cost, the size of the current corn crop, European export | !market trends, and the increase in consumer resistance to consumer | Fa prices.

years later. She later reassumed the name of Edison.
