The plant, which

The principal
parts of the current program will be the refitting

furnish them today, jn as much as the week
i ends Saturday and the Saturday figures are not available at time of going to press.
Accordingly, in the above the last day of the week in all cases has to be estimated.
In the elaborate detailed statement, however, which we present further below,
we are able to give the final and complete results of the week previous—the week
ended Jan. 5. For that week there was an increase of 13.0%, the aggregate of clear¬
ings for the Wholfe country having amounted to $12,441,975,093 against $11^008,612,135
iin the same week in 1944. Outside of this city there was a gain of 9.7%, the bank
clearings at this center having recorded an increase 6f 15.6%; We group the cities
according to the Federal Reserve Districts in Which they are located and from this
; is appears that in the New York District (including this City) the totals record an
improvement of 14.9%, in the Boston Reserve District of 14.2% and in the Phila! delphia Reserve District of 18.0%. In the Cleveland Reserve District the totals are
larger by 3.7% and in thd Atlanta Reserve District by 3.4%, but in the Richmond
Reserve District the totals are smaller by 0.4%. The Chicago Reserve District has
