BRIGHTER OUTLOOK
INDUSTRY AND TRADE
VIEWS FROM THREE ANGLES
The economies department ot Canterbury College, in its bulletin prepared ior the Canterbury Chamber of Commerce, analyses trade, and banking figures, am comes- to the conclusion that general trade improvement has marched independently of the World Economic Conference. It is pointed out that in the . bulletin issued in June last the better tone _ot the London market for metals and lot New Zealand produce was mentioned. me metal market has since maintained its tirmness, and meat prices have advanced sligntlv Wool prices have advanced by at least 20* per cent., and butter prices by more than iO per cent. This increased strength has continued, in spite of the indefinite results of the World Economic Conferencu, which might have tended to weaken commodity prices. - . "The short view in all the markets jn which New Zealand is interested is less unsatisfactory than it has been for .some tiinp. Any long view, however, must still take into account the continuance of those obstacles to a revival of prosperity it was hoped the Economic Conference wculd surmount."
