Business progress steady amid speculative ebullience and wheat concerns
The report notes steady business in general while speculators vacillate with the wheat market. Hoover says much of the crop left farmers before the break. Farm wheat stocks on March 1 stood at Pro2s,000 bushels. A lower wheat price could reduce planting but raise futures. Rail traffic hit a record pace for the season with 9,000,382 cars loaded Jan 1 to Mar 7, up 16 percent from last year. Steel demand mirrors 1924 averages, auto output rose in February, and building activity expands with seasonal employment. Indicators suggest a sound economy, not an imminent boom, and that speculation cannot alter underlying conditions.
