U.S. BUSINESS UNSETTLED
MAY STAY OUT OF WAR CLOSE PACIFIC WATCH (Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, this day. “Business conditions in the United States are very unsettled,” said Mr. J. R. McKenzie, on his return to New Zealand from a visit to America. "There is great uncertainty regarding the future,’’ he proceeded, “people appear unwilling to invest in new enterprise.” The cause of the setback was the impending Presidential election and the international situation. He thought that the outbreak of war would mean •.hat President Roosevelt would continue in office for a further term. He was still popular with a large section of the community, but not with the business community. It was thought that he would do all possible to keep the United States out of war, while keeping a close watch on the safety of the Pacific.
