Money and Prices

NEW HAVEN, Conn, April 80 (Spe-
ciaD The commodity price level last
week more than held the substantial
gains of recent weeks and registered a
slight further advance.
The rising price level is becoming a
matter of major economic significance.
Since the week ending July 90. 1927,
the wholesale price level has risen 9.45
per cent This means that the pur-
chasing power of the dollar in goods
at wholesale has declined during this
period by more than twice the normal
interest rate on savings.
The rise Is the more significant In
view of the fact that it has been op-
posite to the seasonal movement of the
last four years. in each Of which fall
i'll prices has occurred in the first six
months. In 1923. prices advanced
sharply until April and then fell, until
the midyear saw them at or below jan
uarv levels.
Fluctuations in the general whole
sale price level and in the purchasing
power of the dollar are given below for
various periods The average for the
wear 1926 Is the base used.
