Money and Prices

NEW HAVEN, Conn, September 10
tSpeclaD .-Wavering commodity prices
last week depressed the wholesale price
index to 99.7; therefore the dollars
buying power increased $40 of a cent.
Last weeks decline marks the sixth
week of alternating wholesale price rises
and falls. The general trend. however
Is still upward as compared with
year ago when the index was 95.5 and
with the 1927 average. which was 94.2.
Today's figures show that, even with
last weeks slight decline. the commodity
index is still within 3-1O of a point
of the highest level reached since the
gradual decline which started in No
vember 1926 This highest level was
reached the week before last when the
wholesale price index touched 100, the
1926 price average, and the base for
calculating consequent price changes.
1t Is healthy sign that there has
been no severe increase or decrease for
the past seven years in the value of the
dollar in terms of commodities. Since
1925, for instance. the largest deviation
from the 1926 average was in July
1927, when the dollar averaged 7.8 cents
less in purchasing power than it did
during the previous year.
Fluctuations i'll the general wholesale
price level and in the purchasing power
OF the dollar are given below for various
periods. The average for the year 1925
is the base used.
