The Paper Industry

The American paper mill industry is thus summariz- ed by the Boston News Bureau:
 German newsprnt is responsible for present dulness of the trade the operating average of all domestic print mills above 70 per cent. Hugo Shines is offering German newsprint at $50 ton the dock at New York This companes with domestic price at $80.
 The reason is no secret. German paper mill workers are getting weekly wages with gold equivalent of 584 Even with the % per cent increase they demanding, his is not greatly the daily wage of the American operative The willingness to work for these wages is partly explained by the fact that the mark has purchas ing power within Germany times it's international value
 The other end of the story is cheap freight At least five of the big New York dailies using foreign print and the total consumption of this paper in New York alone by newspapers, will amount to about 48OOO tons year
 Manufacturers unanimous in declaring that the German price of $50 per $5 ton below their costs and many mills cannot break $80-4cent-paper
 Latest report indicates very little change in consumption of stocks, but curtaed production Ger man imports averaging 5000 month, amount to less than 5 per cent of our consumption.

An Industrial Center

Los Angeles is shining example of the fact that in- dustrial development and community development go hand in hand
 For years Los Angeles was known as ''mlionaries' playground"
 Slowly but surely the value of industries was recog- nzed by that city, and for years past it's Chamber of Commerce has been backing every movement that looked to the future industrial growth of Los Angeles and the surrounding country.
 Industrial development has been it's slogan and from show place and recreation point for the tour ist Los Angeles has emerged of the great anu- fscturng centers of this nation It has reached point where it's immense industries draw other industries
 As a city it has maintained satisfactory working conditions for the empoye and the investor and today Los Angeles probably the finest example of the result of concerted community action for industrial growth that can be found in this nation.
 This is not advertisement for Los Angeles, but al tip to other western cities go out and do likewise with the opportunities afforded for industrial growth in tho Weetern states.

T Tax-Exempt Securities

It is estimated ten billion dollars of tax-exempt se- curities are afoat in country.
 They are municipal bonds and bonds of federal and state land banks and farm loan organizations.
 The public utility banking firm that is in private ownership to get capital loan money farm mort gages must complete securities where the tax rate IS often as high the rate of interest should be.
 How can such public service utilities and farm loan banks get capital extend their service to the farmers at low rates in competition with taxexempt municipal securities and tax-exempt farm loans?
 Yet taxable private capital must carry threefourths of the public service utilities and farm loans at expense of the people.

KANSAS CITY STOCK MARKET
Cattle and Hogs Steady to Lower Lambs Higher,
 Active

Another heavy run of short fed cattle in Chicago, follow ing last weeks slow trade there, added further weak ness to the market, and caused a rather slow trade at points that had moderate receipts. Here receipts were less than a week ago, and material short of a year ago. Trade was rather slow with prices steady to slight ly lower. Hogs were steady to 15 cents lower, mostly 15 cents lower. Lambs were strong to 25 cents higher. Straight range lambs sold up to $9.00
 Today's Receipts
 Receipts today were 23,- 900 cattle, 5000 hogs, and 5000 sheep, compared with 25, ,000 cattle, 75O0 hogs, and $500 sheep a week ago, and 38, 900 cattle, 1850 hogs, and 3250 sheep a year ago.
 Beef Cattle
 Cattle receipts 23, ,000 car rled only a small per cent suitable for killing purposes, but the trade was slowed down considerably by the heavy run of short fed steers and lower prices in Chicago. Here the best COWS, steers and heifers were steady. The medium to plain kinds were 10 to 15 cents lower, and common kinds slow sale though close to steady. Ave rage quality was ordinary. No full fed steers arrived. Calues were 50 cents to $1.00 lower.
 Stockers and Feeders
 Thougha good many coun- try buyers were here and the supply of thin cattle large, trade was rather quiet. Good to choice classes sold readily, and the plain and ordinary kinds were slow sale. Prices however were held steady as indications are that the demand will broaden later in the week.
 Hogs
 A few medium and light weight hogs that sold early to order and shipper buyers at $6. 75 to $7.00 were quot ed steady. Packers how ever held off for lower prices and finally gained conces- slons of 10 to 15 cents. The packers top was $6.90 and bulk of sales $6. 40 to $6. 90. Pigs sold up to $7.75. Re- ceipts though larger than a week ago, were smaller than a year ago.
 Sheep and Lambs
 Some range lambs sold at $9. co and most of the ewes which were ordinary quality sold at $3. 75 and $4. %. The market was quoted steady on fat sheep and strong to 25 cents higher on lambs. The few feeding lambs here brought ST. 75, fully steady.
 Horses and Mules
 Fairly liberal supplies are in sight for the horse and mule auctions this week. Today's horse prices were unchanged, Demand was fairly active.
