Despite war fears, the United States recovers toward normalcy with factories running day and night to fill war orders. Clothing, hats, shoes, and flour ship abroad, car and textile industries expand, and cotton mills operate around the clock.

Farmers will reap about 15 million dollars from a 751000 ton beet yield to produce roughly 125000 tons of sugar on around 65400 acres, keeping California a world leader in the field.

Exports rise sharply as war demand boosts New York port
New York custom house data shows exports from the port up nearly 12 million dollars in the 28 days to Oct 23 versus last year. Cotton and machinery falloffs are offset by gains in sugar zinc nickel and war materials. Week ending Oct 23 sets a high year to date, with munitions flow questioned and land routes favored for supplies. Politically the election proceeds with Democratic gains expected in Missouri and nationally.
