Reaction From High Costs Estab-

Says Federal Board.
FOOD And CLOTHING CHEAPER
Business Continues at Extremely
High Level" and Confidence of Sat
isfactory Solution of Wage and
Price Problems Is Reported.

Washington, Sept. 8.-Reaction from
the high price level established during
the war has set in, says the federal re-
serve boards review of business con-
ditions In August.
Not only are some foodstuffs declin-
ing In cost to the consumer, but the
price of wearing apparel, such as tex
tiles and shoes, also has been affected,
the review says.
Business continues at an extremely
high level" and confidence of salts
factory solution of the wage and price
problems was reported from all sec
lions of the country.
During August, factors which had
not hitherto arrested much attention
exercised great influence on the bust
ness situation" the boards statement
said. Reference is made, of course,
to the problem of commodity prices,
in particular those going to make up
the cost of living, and to the conse-
quent condition of labor unrest.
"a movement toward lower prices
appears to be in progress in certain
directions, prices of certain foodstuffs
are declining, as a feeling of conser-
vatism is noticeable in certain lines,
such as the textile and shoe indus
tries, in which price advances had pre-
viously been most marked, 'resales' at
some concession In price being re-
ported.
Reports from the federal reserve
agents generally indicate feeling OF
confidence that a satisfactory solution
of the price and wage problems will
be reported. The actual volume OF
business transacted continues at an
extremely high level for the present
season of the year, although transpor-
tation difficulties and shortage of la
Dor have been hampering factors in
certain lines.
"The agricultural outlook on the
whole is distinctly less favorable than
a month ago, although the large acre
age sOwn in certain cases will COM
pensate for decreased yield per acre.
Cotton in particular Is in poor condi-
ton.
"Rehecting the feeling of uncertain
ty which prevails, the volume of spec
ulation has abated, and declines in
the price Of securities have occurred.
The general business situation, how
ever, is at bottom strong"
Discussing labor conditions, the
board recorded that reports from the
majority of districts designate the sit
uatiOn as unsettled"
In certain districts a decreasing eff
cheney of labor is remarked, which is
ascribed to relaxation from wartime
pressure for maximum production. At
the same time additional demands
made by the workers have been grant
ed, in large part due to the general
shortage of labor which exists in many
sections.

The Americans, 200 in number, were

The strikers. about 500, walked six

Between the two groups were the

in command of Capt. Ben Strong and
Capt. f. D. Rinbach.
The foreigners, mostly Poles, were
led by Thomas Skuba, who was a lieu
tenant in the American army. He
wore his uniform and carried an
American flag.
At the corner of Columbia and
Highland streets is a vacant lot, a
sandy waste with a wagon road run
