USINESS AROMETER i Ot our domestic situation it is still possible to speak with conservative optimism, says Theodore H. Price, editor of Comirc-rce and Finance. Perhaps the most encouraging item of a statistical character published during the week war the news of an Increase of 15 per over last year in the postal receipts during May. Now that the carriage cf parcels is such an important part of the postoffice business the revenue derived from it is a partlc- ulafly good reflex of general conditions Considered in detail there are only two dark spots in the economic map of the country. One is the coal strike The other is the low price of wheat They are both Important, though the fact that they are so lightly considered attests the widespread and confident cheerfulness of the nation.

It is true that a dollar for wheat used to be regarded as a fair price, but that figure is out of line with the present wage scale and the value of most other staple commodities. As to the coal strike, Mr Hoover is still laboring with it, but an agreement between the miners and the operators seems no nearer, and if after the first of the mines are still Idle there will be genuine reason for con cern. Railroad earnings and traffic are surprisingly good. The labor board has decreed another reduction, estimated at $60,000,000 annually, in the pay of th shop men, and another strike vote is being taken, but good judges say the men will accept the cut and this seems probable. The New England textile strike is approaching its end.
