THE tJMAHA BEE. 16 '-( RESERVE BOARD WARNS AGAINST UNDUECIIANCES PossibWity That Speculation Mayv Exert Injurious Influ : ence On TraaVPrompts . ' - Warning. y . Washington, July 2. Optimism as to the business outlook reported to day in the federal reserve board's monthly statement of conditions was tempered with renewed warning against undue speculation. y "tn nearly all the districts." the " board's statement said, "the opinion is entertained that the prospects for a successful and prosperous year, with very large output of .goods and almost unprecedented financial re turns both to manufacturers,' agri culturists and laborers now are posi tive. The possibility that specular tion may be carried too far and maH exert an injurious influence, aided and furthered by the existence of free credit and speculative tenden cies, appears as the principal offset ting influence in the situation." v Prices Rise During June. Prices continued to rise through- out June, the board's statement : showed, and enormously heavy de mand for goods for export had ren dered products in many lines scarce. In nearly all districts it was report ed business men had decided they could rely upon heavy demand and continuously sustained prices ioy some time to cpme, while a telling of apprehension entertained early in the year was" disappearing, jobbers" and retailers readily entering into large commitments for fall and win ter. ! In many respects the agricultural prospects of the- early spring are being mors than justified. Wheat, corn, cotton, tobacco and Pacific n coast crops will be harvested in s record quantities. Live stock con tinues high in price. Steel and iron experienced a distinct turn for the better. The fuel situation has been much below normal with prospects of a tight situation next winter Metal mining industry was again improving. Cafton Demands Excessive Manufacturing likewise took a strong upward turn during June. Demand for fine cotton goods ex- ' ceeds production. Shoe factories are producing at maximum capacity, while heavy demand from Europe , has drawn off much of the available supply. Wool products are sold ahead for ' months. ' Automobile manufacturing is running in many plants at record levels. Building shows continuation of the revival noted in previous months. Heavy buying of lumber b'y retailers i has become general. There is much trading in houses and business prop erty. Labor Situation Satisfactory. "The labor situation has now reached sT distinctly advanced stage .pf full employment," the board's statement said in commenting on - employment conditions. s "There is apparently no present ' condition of unemployment; indeed, many industries report they cannot get the men they need, while wages are fully up to past levels, or higher. The requirements for farm help are absorbing surplus labor in practical , Jy all parts of the country. There is .some surplus of unskilled workers in. some centers, but this is not dif ferent from the condition in normal " times. No reduction in wage scales is now foreseen. Advocate Increase for Clerks. "One of the principal problems in the labor situation- noted by thoughtful observers is the fact that clerks, and office erriployes, as well as other workers receiving more or , less fixed incomes, have not yet par ticipated in. the advance in wages. Improvement for these classes of workers will be necessary if prices are to continue at their present level, but will, of, course, add corre spondingly to the cost of business to the government. " "Returning soldiers are being rap 1 idly and steadily absorbed into busi ness arid the problem which for a time seemed to threaten In this con nection is now apparently minimized -; in all directions. From the farming districts particularly'comes the re port that the supply of labor i scanty and likely to prove more so as business progresses." Government credit was reported in good condition, as evidenced by the high and rising market for liber ty bonds of practically all issues, particularly Victory notes.
