New York, Dec. 14. Dun' tomorrow will say: Only In th retail field have storms and low temperatures been helpful to business and It Is of lets general Importance that demands for sessenabl commodities have been accelerated und augmented than that transportation problems have been aggra vated and manufacturing still further lm pedad. Through th vigorous and unusual measures taken to better condition, partial relief from th freight congestion was in dicated before real winter weather set In over a wide area, but ince then the ltua tion ha become even mor troublesome and not a few planis hav been forced to hut down altogether or to appreciably reduce operation because of the added difficulties of obtaining fuel. The toppage or curtailment of work I especially unfortunate at a tlm when the pressure for supplies of various materials and merohandlse for the government and other Interests Is so great and In branches wher regular buying ha diminished the change is not unwlcom. with producer hampered as they are. That strictly civilian trade, whll not so conspicuously active b previously, remain large In the aggregate report make clear and Christmas shopping has started In a way forecasting favorabl results on the whole. But holi day purchases In most Instances are both more conservative and discriminating than last, year and emphatlte the movement toward economy which has grown out of theOwar and which la spreading In about all sections.

' Th market re ceived good eupport though and no radical setback In prices was effected at any tlm. Receipt wero still of meager volume and. numerous buyers seemed entirely willing to take all chances conrsnlng a better ment of the quality of offerings and to risk whatever Increase of arrivals might follow an escape from tho prevailing cold wave. Depression In oals resulted to a consider able extent from gossip that the govern ment had asked New Orleans exporters to curb their activities until an accumulation of atock could be made at Interior ter minals. Besides, aK"od deal of selling was done on the theory that a four-day advance in price wan morn than enough.
