A few scattered labor difficulties, and the prospect of revision of NRA codes as result of the hearings which started in Washington, were men tioned by some business executives a3 possible factors inspiring caution, but on the whole, it was agreed busi ness seemed pointed toward a spring peak of gratifying proportions, par ticularly in contrast to the extreme low levels of a year ago. when the country was struggling with its firs.t banking crisis.

Steel ingot production, according to the weckl ysurvey by Steel, rose only one percentage point during the week to 4S percent of capacity. Cram estimated the past week's automobile production at 71.510 units, up only 4 63 over the previous week, but more than double the out put for the like week of last year. The W. C. T.
