Economic growth crept ahead in September


    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The economy kept growing slightly in September but prospects for the future appeared to be dimming, according to a coast-to-coast survey of conditions released by the U.S. central bank on Wednesday.

    "Overall economic activity continued to expand in September, although many districts described the pace of growth as 'modest' or 'slight' and contacts generally noted weaker or less certain outlooks for business conditions," the findings compiled by the regional Fed Bank of Chicago said.
