Mark in Year
Result Compares With
$184,409 Earned, in
Preceding Period
By the Associated Press.

Rivitz also announced the com

$4,000,000 from its cash resources
to increase present capacity of the
Painesvllle, Ohio, plant more than
50 per cent “Our engineers are al
ready at work preparing plans and
we expect to break ground within
six to eight weeks,” he said. The
extension is expected to be ready
in the spring of 1941. Industrial

“We are entering the new year

“Inventories are low, the demand
continues to be good, and prices are

Wholesale Commodify
Average Goes Down
Commodity prices were generally
lower last week and the wholesale
price index compiled by the National
Fertilizer Association declined to the
lowest point reached since the mid
dle of December. This index in the
week ended February 3 was 77.5
compared with 78.2 in each of the
two preceding weeks. 78.3 three
weeks ago, 78.5 four weeks ago. and
72.8 a year ago, based on the 1926
1928 average as 100.
Declines were widespread through
out most of the commodity list with
six of the principal group indexes
declining, one registering a slight
advance and four remaining un
changed. The food price average fell
to the lowest point reached since
the advance began early last Sep
tember; 15 items in this group de
clined in price during the week and
four advanced.
With cotton, grains and live stock
all moving downward the farm
product average showed a moderate
recession. The only two products
included in the farm group to ad
vance were lambs and poultry, while
14 items declined
A fractional drop in gasoline quo
tations resulted in a slight decline in
the fuel price average, reversing tha
upward trend of recent weeks. All
of the changes in textile prices dur
ing the week were downward, with
burlap, wool, silk, cotton goods and
cotton yarns all moving lower.
Lower prices for steel scrap, copper
and lead were responsible for a drop
in the metal index. A small increase
in lumber quotations caused an up
turn in the index representing the
prices of building materials.
