NEW YORK. Aug. 9—U. S. Treas
ury issues showed the bond market1
the way to somewhat lower prices
today.
Some corporate issues resisted the
main trend and recorded fractional
advances in late dealings. Helping
sentiment, bond men said, were re
ports of avid demand for new is
sues. including the big Pennsylva
nia power and light offering.
An urge to wait for Europe's "dan
ger period" to pass was cited as one
reason for inactivity on the buying
side in today's market.
Slipping for losses of fractions to a
point or so were American & For
eign Power 5s. American Telephone
3'iS, Commonwealth Edison 3'2S.
Great Northern 4s, Loews 312s.
Southern Railway General 6s.
Northern Pacific 5s and Utilities
Power & Light 5s.
Losses in the Treasury list at one
time ranged to 9 32ds.
Italian and German issues lost
ground in thin dealings in the for
eign division.

Financial Barometer
NEW YORK. Aub 9 (£8.—Merchandise
Inventories of 75 large corporations de
clined 7 per cent during the six months
ended June 30. according to a compila
tion by National. City Bank,
Inventories were also 8 per cent lower
than a year a«o and 21 per cent lower
than June 30. 1937
While these companies are only a small
sample of industry and trade, the com
pilation confirms the wldesDread belief
that Inventories are conservative and in
a position to support any rise in busi
ness activity.

Commodity Price Index
Sags to New Low
A moderate decline last week in
the wholesale commodity price in
dex compiled by the National Fer
tilizer Association took it to the low
est point reached since July, 1934.
In the week ended August 5 this
index stood at 70.9 per cent of the
1926-1928 average, compared with
71.2 in the preceding week, 74 a
year ago and 88.2 two years ago.
The principal decline was in the
food group, with the group index
declining to the lowest point reached
in recent years. Lower prices for
silk and wool were responsible for
a drop in the textile price index.
The building material average was
also lower, reflecting declining quo
tations for lumber. A fractional
rise was recorded by the farm prod
uct average, with higher prices for
cotton, corn and poultry more than
offsetting declines in w'heat and
hogs. Continued strength in non
ferrous metals and steel scrap took
the metal index to the higest point
reached in the last three months.
Small Increases were also recorded
by the indexes representing the
prices of fertilizer materials and
miscellaneous commodities.
As a result of small increases in
the prices of a number of less im
portant commodities advances in
price series included in the index
outnumbered declines 25 to 21. In
the preceding week there were 31
advances and 20 declines. In the
second preceding week there were
12 advances and 26 declines.

Rains Have Mixed Effect
On Virginia Crops
By the Associated Press.
The Department of Agriculture re
. ported today general rains in Vir
ginia truck crop areas since July 20.
with mixed effects.
Very dry weather previous to that
date on the Eastern Shore greatly
reduced the potato yield.
Rains, though beneficial to the
tomoto crop, temporarily hurt the
quality. Too much rain in the last
two weeks hurt watermelons, caus
ing development of wilt and other
: diseases.
Cabbage and snap beans in the
Southwest were greatly benefited
by the rains, the department said,
and a normal late crop of cabbage
is expected.
Potato shipments were practically
finished by August 1. Watermelons
started to move the last week in
July and are expected to reach a
peak about August 15.
At the same time, the department
reported that receipts by farmers
from sale of livestock and livestock
products in Virginia during the first
six months of 1939 nearly doubled
the receipts from sale of crops.
Pullman, Inc., Reports
Net of $1,104,127
By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. Aug. 9 —Pullman. Inc.,
large railroad equipment manufac
turer and sleeping car transporta
tion concern, reported for the six
months ended June 30 consolidated
net income of $1,104,127, equal to
28 cents a share.
This compared with net income
of $644,901 for the corresponding
1938 period.
George F. Kelly, vice president,
said the chief source of consolidated
earning power in the first half of
this year was the Pullman company
sleeping car subsidiary, which re
ported operating income of $1,317,131
for the period, compared with an
operating loss of $355,898 a year ago.
Car manufacturine activity Mr
Kelly said, resulted in a small
profit during the second quarter, but
showed a loss for the first half year.
Sugar Quota Imports
Off For 7 Months
By the Associated Press.
The Agriculture Department re
ported imports of sugar under the
quota law totaled 2.771.729 short
tons, raw value, during the first
seven months of this year.
Imports during the comparable
period last year totaled 3,049.474
short tons.
The imports were as follows:
Cuba, 816,385 short tons; the Phil
ippines. 713,161; Puerto Rico. 723.
598; Hawaii, 506,830. and foreign
countries other than Cuba, 11,755.

Great Diversification
Of Steel Orders Is
Hailed by Magazine
Industry Hopeful of
Higher Rates When
Auto Tonnage Climbs
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Aug. 9.—The out
standing significance of current
steel business has been the great
diversification of orders both in re*
spect to products and range of users,
Iron Age said today in its weekly
review of the industry.
"As there is no’ indication of a *‘
cessation of yiis flow of miscel
laneous business in the near fu
ture," the magazine said, "the steel
industry is hopeful of higher operat
ing rates as soon as automobile ton
nage is sufficient to make itself felt.
Within a week or two the trend of *
automobile assemblies will be up
ward. when production of new mod
els begins. *
"Settlement of the General Mo
tors strike has not yet had an im-'
portant effect on steel releases
* * *, but specifications in fairly
large volume are expected before
the end of this month.
“Meanwhile the adjournment of
Congress, together with the defeat '
of the New Deal’s spending-lending
program, has had a good senti
mental effect on business, notwith
standing the fact a good share of
present steel buying flows directly
or indirectly from Government ex
penditures."
Expectations for a stronger trend
in steel business during the late
summer and early autumn, Iron
Age continued, were borne out by
a rise in steel ingot production of
1 point to 61 per cent, highest since
November last year, and a further
gain in scrap prices which raised
the Iron Age scrap price composite
to $15.42, highest since October, 1937.
Foreign business, particularly Jap
anese, was partly responsible for
increased strength of scrap markets
in the East, the review added.
R. F. C. Loans to Industry

The R. F. C. reported yesterday

Since the R. F. C. was formed, the
report said it has authorized 6.613

aggregating $343,616 177. Of this
amount $77,223,879 has been with
drawn and $93,120,490 remains avail
able to the borrowers.
In addition the corporation has
I agreed to purchase participations
amounting to $115,672,382 in loans
to 1.543 businesses.
Emil Schram. R. F. C. chairman,
said the R. F. C.'s commitments and
| authorizations of all kinds in con
nection with the recovery program
totaled $12,398,614 during July,
j Total authorizations since the R.
j T C. started, and tentative commit
ments jutstanding on July 31,
amounted to $13,352,422,609." Of
this, $2,245,185,371 has been canceled
or withdrawn.
