L After declaring he could “see
nothing in the present situation
that is either menacing or warrants
pessimism.” 8ecretary Mellon said.
“in the credit situation the trend
of .moMy rates to downward. There
to plenty of credit available and
we have reason to expect that the
rates for new capital in building
construction and expansion will be
such as to facilitate the promotion
and accomplishment of new under-
takings. The government's finances
are in sound condition, which war-
rants the cut in taxes, and the gov-
ernment itself, to In a position to
do its part in helping the country
to meet and solve tse problems
which are ahead.”
Secretary Lamont's statement said
in port:
“Although some of our industries
lagged behind, there was on the
whole, during 1029, less disparity
between the slow and active
branches of business than has been
apparent in other recent years.

index of the output of the manufac-

increase of approximately 20 per

Clarence M Young, assistant Sec-
retary of Commerce for aeronau-
tics, made an equally opUmtotic re-
port on the progress of aviation,
adding the New Year should be fa-
vored by the momentum establish-
ed by the acbqmpttahments of the
