Readjustment of Prices.

Expectations that the mid-year
commodity index number would dis
close further price readjustment
have proved well founded. As meas
ured by Dun's compilation, the de-
cline last month was considerably
greater than that which occurred in
May. 81 per cent comparing with o.
per cent, and closely approximated
the average reduction for the first
four months this year. After four
teen consecutive months of yielding,
the index number is 1913 per cent be-
low the high point touched on May
l, last year, and the rise over the
prewar basis, which exceeded lis per
cent at the maximum level. has mar
rowed to about 30 per cent. Except
ing in dairy and garden products, in
which a small advance developed,
the price defiation during June ex-
tended to all OF the groups into
which the index number is sepa-
rated, the widest changes being in
breadstuffs. meat. and miscellaneous.
For all foods together, there was a
decline of 5.4 per cent.

To Consider Sales
OF Wildcat Issues

Regulation of the sale OF wildcat
securities through the United States
mails or other agencies of inter-
state commerce will be considered
by the House Committee on Inter-
state and Foreign Commerce today.
A bill to accomplish this has been
introduced by Representative Ed
ward Z. Denison. of Illinois, which
follows the precedent set by the
Reed amendment to the postoffice
appropriation bill of 1917, which
shut out from the mails and other
agencies of interstate transporta.
tion all letters and circulars ad
vertising the sale Of liquor from
those States in which prohibition
was in effect.
The Denison bill IL enacted will
give Federal aid in the enforce
mept of the blue- sky laws in the
nineteen States where they have
been enacted.
