a sure one are on the way from West
Virginia and will reach San Francisco

REDUCTION IN LIVING
COST IS PREDICTED
Federal Government Soon to Make Re.
port on Living Cost Showing
Slight Reduction.

Washington, Sept. H. - A break in
retail food prices will be shown in a
price report covering the entire coun-
try now being prepared by the Labor
Department, officials predicted today.
The report probably will be issued
late next week.
Wholesale prices have been declin-
ing for three months. Prices paid
farmers declined six per cent. in Au-
gust, according to the reports, while
livestock men got 2.9 LIr cent. less.
Commodity prices also suffered de-
clines during the past two months, ac-
cording to the Federal Reserve Board.
Raw materials are sharing the de-
cline. In some materials, like crude
rubber and leather, prices are near
pre-war figures.
Unless spectators and middlemen
are reaping a harvest of profits be-
tween the producer and consumer, re-
tail food prices must begin to follow
the general decline, officials said to-
day. CO.

BALL GAME WILL ATTRACT
LARGE CROWD TOMORROW
Game Between Fl. Thomas Soldiers
and Picked Maysyille Team Prom.
ises to Be Best Of Season.

The game of baseball Sunday after
noon at League Park between the SOL
diers of Ft. Thomas and team picked
from the various local clubs by the
Leslie H. Arthur Post American
Legion, promises to be the best game
of baseball for the entire season in
Maysville and 1t is expected that the
attendance will break all past records.
Members of the local legion have
been selling tickets in advance and
reports from the selling committees
are very encouraging and predict a
record-breaking crowd. After the ex-
penses of the Fit. Thomas team are
paid, the profits from the game will go
to the American Legion to help the
members fit up their club rooms in
Sutton street.
More interest has been manifested
in Maysville this summer in baseball
than in many years pointing to a re-
vival of the spirit in Maysville and
many have ventured to predict that
net year will see Maysville with a
real ball team and probably in one Of
the nearby leagues.
