MERGERS OPERATE
TO STABILIZE PRICE
Survey Shows Combines Have
Tended to Resist Upward
Movement.

Consultations in the manufacturing
industry have been a factor tending to
resist the general upward movement of
prices and in stabiliZing the markets In
which they operate, according to re-
/ port Just completed by the National In
dustrial Conference Board, PAT Park
avenue. New York. Consultations in
general were found to have achieved an
appreciate superiority in production
over independent producers in their re-
spective fields. although the same may
or may not be true of the distributive
phase of their operations, which were
not included in the scope of the con-
ference boards study.
Aspopular impression as to the fnan-
cial success of consultations generally
is proved illusory in that the study of
the business history of large number
of consultations over a period of from
10 to % years prior to the war showed
that, by and large, these mergers did
not prove exceptionally profitable.
Their combined record was found not
to differ much from that of independent
business concerns, in that, while many
made high profits and grew in size and
Importance, many failed absolutely, and
the majority failed of conspicuous sue
cess, indicating that consolidation in
itself is no substitute for business acu-
men or efficient management.
The effect Of consolidation upon the
price level is demonstrated with volum-
nous statistical evidence. Based upon
60 lines of manufacturing, the study
discloses that the general upward trend
of prices from 1900-1925 has been much
less pronounced in those branches OF
manufacturing in which industrial con-
solicitations have been a dominant factor
rrN- a..
these &c lines of manufacturing was
only 1913 per cent, as against a rise of
1106 per cent during the same period
in the 81 lines of manufacture which
have not been affected by the consolida-
ton movement.

Representatives of practically every
| wheat-growing district in the United
States in conference here have fairly
well outlined the organization of a
| wheat sterilization corporation to take
advantage of the new farm relief ap-
preparations.
The conference began last week and
will continue this week, but, despite
difficulties and disagreements which
have been encountered, it now looks
as though a nationwide organization
would spring into existence, borrow
$1O0, 900 900 from the Federal Farm
Loan Board created by the new law
as soon as the body comes into ex-
istence, and tackle the Job of carrying
over the 1928 wheat crop surplus. now
estimated TO run at about 10000 600
bushels.
My anticipation now is that the
wheat interests will be ready to start
at the first chance" said Chester H.
Gray, Washington representative of the
American Farm Bureau Federation.
There have been some doubts about it.,
due to the size of their problem, but
they have gotten together very well of
late. Also, the fruit and vegetable or
ganizations have been very fast, though
they will not require so much aid as
the wheat situation.
Secretary Hyde at the Agriculture
Department has been kept informed
of every step in the wheat procedure
and has been frequently consulted
In the theory adopted tentatively by
the wheat growers representatives the
scheme of organization for the wheat
sterilization corporation will partake of
public utility character. Organizations

activities on the basis of the amount
of wheat they have to market. Its
capital will be mostly supplied by the
Government out of the $500, 000, 900
farm relief program.
ut doesn't seem likely that the indi-
Vidual grower will deal with the wheat
sterilization corporation directly" said
Hugh j. Hughes, who has entered the
discussions as representative of the
Minnesota wheat pool. Local organi-
cations now exist in all the wheat ter
ritories. some of them competitive. but
all of them can join hands with the ma
tional corporation"
AS the program is Sketched, the
wheat corporation will stand ready to
take wheat from the 1929 crop almost
as soon as it comes to harvest, though
it will not be expected to handle
actually more than small proportion
of the crop. The notion is that it will
buy enough to pin the price at levels
deemed fair by the board and the
corporation.
Player-pianos manufactured in the
United States are much more popular
with foreign buyers than the types that
require human operators. In the last
recorded month of the customs reports
428 player pianos went abroad, and but
1874 ordinary pianos. Australia is by
far the best customer for the American
mechanical music device, taking $50
player pianos a month, but MeXicanS,
Peruvians and Cubans are important
buyers.

Serious calculations now show clearly
that the whole tariff program has been

is deemed to be more than possible that
the special session will adjourn without

the roll call on the Borah resolution
