INCREASE IN HOG PRICES
REPORTED BY INSTITUTE

Farmers received 10 per cent more
for their hogs at the leading markets
during the month closing today than
they received in May of last year., &C
cording to a statement describing the
live stock and meat situation in the
United States, issued today by the In
Stitute of American Meat Packers. The
statement continued:
The export trade in meat products
was comparatively quiet.
There was a fair demand for fresh
pork during the month, but wholesale
prices were relatively unsatisfactory.
The demand for fresh shoulders was
somewhat better than the demand for
loins. Prices of all fresh products are
relatively low. compared with the prices
al which hogs are selling.
THE smoked meat business was quite
slow in the first half of the month, but
improved during the latter part. Prices
were about steady. The bacon trade
has improved substantially during re-
cent months and is now on about as
good a basis as the ham business.
THE demand for boiled hams was
comparatively slow, owing in part to
the unseasonably cool weather during
the month. There wa practically no
change in price. The trade in sausage
and ready-to-serve meats was Just fair.
The dressed beef trade improved
slightly toward the end of the month.
There was some improvement in the
dressed lamb market at the end of the
month.
THE wool market has been active,
but prices were somewhat lower than
during April"

AIR LINE HEAD SEES
LITTLE COMPETITION

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June frederick B.
Rentscheler, president of the United
Aircraft and Air Transportation Cor
poration, says large air lines need have
little fear of severe competition.
"The fact that a large part of the
earnings of air transport companies
arises at present from air mail con-
tracts" he said, %"precludes much
competition from smaller carriers. The
Post ONCE Department awards these
contracts on the basis of the COM
pany's ability to carry mail satisfac-
torily, and once a contract is placed no
similar award will be made to a COM
peting company"
He said that the passenger outlook
was extremely bright" because of the
successful performance of air mail
services.
Air transport companies may become
serious competitors of railroads in pas
senger service" declared Mr.. Rent
scheler, owing to the growing interest
in aviation, the construction of new
airports and landing fields and the
continual bctterment of equipment"
