Output Cut 60 Per Cent Since 1914 Says Prohibition Chief

Steel Output Practically Stationary
The week which began 4 new
month was marked by little change
III the rate Of steel output. Estimates
not unnaturally have varied q little.
but the consensus Of report indicates
a production about on the same basis
as that Of last week. In point Of new
business, advices also have differed,
although the balance Is stated to be
on the side Of improvement.
FAN Textile Trade Broadens
The cooler weather Of the week
gave added impetus to fall trade In
textiles. That was true both OF retail
and wholesale distribution, and In
terruption of activities by the observ-
ance Of further Jewish holidays was
a temporary phase. Much irregular
|ity still marks purchasing in differ
ent centers and sections Of the coun-
try, yet seasonal expansion has &C.
CURED in varying degree in numerous
instances, and there has been evi-
dence Of light stocks in dealers
hands.

Abundance to Borrow Will

The final quarter Of an unsettled
year begins with widespread and Wig
orous commercial revival still de-
ferred. although not without some In
dications Of seasonal gain, according
to the weekly review Of trade by r.
G.. Dun and Company. The review
continues:
There is now, as might be expected
after rather q protracted period OF
uncertainty, much sensitiveness to
the conflicting forces in operation
and the extensive scope and diversity
Of these factors accentuates their In
~fluence. An equilibrium In commod-
ity prices Is yet to be reached, par
| ticularly In the great agricultural
staples, securities markets have con-
tinued to lack stability. and senti-
ment has remained confused.
Those are among the major Gle.
ments acting Is barriers to business
progress, but they are familiar phases
in times Of REIMBURSEMENT. The point
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1930-10-07

has been frequently stressed that
economic recuperation was not likely
to come otherwise than slowly and
unevenly, and the present absence oi
q broad advance Is not surprising
More than the ordinary fluctuatiou
in the volume OF trade appears IN
individual lines from week to week,
giving the composite situation q
highly irregular aspect, and there Is
no general upward trend in the vari-
Gus statistical barometers.
There is, however, q naturally i'm
proved status in the retail field un-
der the stimulus Of autumn require
ments, and the increased activity In
this channel has been aided recently
by cool weather over q considerable
area Of the country.
Conditions in manufacture, as q
whole, have not changed in marked
degree. although buying for re-
punishment of stocks and some for
ward purchasing induced by attrac-
tive prices has raised the level Of pro-
duction in certain instances. In view

have prevailed for many months, and
which have been practically world
wide, conservative opinion does not
minimize the adjustments yet to be
completed, even while recognizing
the Importance Of the results already
achieved In strengthening the basic
structure Of business.
Ultimately, there will be q fuller
response to the better fundamental
position. and It will be facilitated BY
the abundance Of funds available al
exceptionally low rates. Instead Of
the growing monetary tension OF q
year ago, with abnormally inflated
loans on speculative accotnt, the cur
rent trend Is toward further ease II
both respects.
Brokers' Loans Sharply Reduced
The current weeks reduction II
brokers loans considerably exceeded
the largest estimate made in finan-
cial circles before the report ap.
peared. It was regarded as . fore

the week, that loans would be sub
stantialiy decreased, but the actual
decline Of 5 1000, 900 came in the
nature Of q surprise. It lowered the
total as Of October l, according to
compilations made by federal reserve
banks, to $3,063, 10000, q point not

most exactly = year ago. loans on
brokerage account were above $780,
100000, so that the amount has been
more than cut in half.
Another striking contrast with the
conditions prevailing at this time last
year is reflected in a comparison Of
money rates. The prevailing charge
Of 2 per cent for call loans Is only
one-fourth Of the quotation Of q year
ago, while existing rates OF 2 to az
per cent for time funds are much be-
low the 9 to 9A per cent named in
this week Of 1928.
Failure Totals Continue High
It was to be expected, in the light
Of the weekly returns, that the num-
Der Of failures in the United States
in septembef would be unusually high,
and the total Of 1868 commercial
defaults represents a new maximum
for the period. It also marks a re-
versal Of the declining trend note in
August, when insolvencies were at
the lowest level for this year, and
the increase over the 1853 failures
Of September, 1929, exceeds Is per
cent.
Conversely, last months liabilities,
although exceptionally large for this
season, are ~ per cent below those
for August. The respective amounts
are 81, .02l and $49,l80.653. With
the close Of September. the figures OH
the business mortality for the third
quarter became available. and the
5,oO4 defaults have not been equaled
during any corresponding three
months. The rise over the 5,082 in
~solvencies Of the third quarter Of 1929
approximates is per cent, while the
latest quarters indebetdness-$135,-

to the amount of $4,000 tons; fresh
raisin grapes, $4,000 tons; and
raisins on grape basis 100000 tons, or

to the amount of $4,000 tons; fresh
raisin grapes, $4,000 tons; and
raisins on grape basis 10000 tons, or
q total Of 1851 900 tons.
Deducting table grapes consumed as
food and dried raisins. there were
available about 100000 tons Of grapes
for wine purposes. One ton Of grapes
will make about $50 gallons of wine,
or q total of about 100, 5000 gallons
Of home made wine could have been
made from the grape crop during the
year ending June 80, 1880, not &C
counted for In legitimate industry.
Hops Reveal Beer Total
The amount of wine made from
small fruits and other sources is i'm
possible to trace, but Is considered as
negligible.
The production of hops is the best
index as to the production of home
brew, as 90 per cent Of the hop crop
finds its way into the beer kettle,
either in the form Of hops or hoped
malt extract, says the statement.
In the year ending June 80, 1880,
there were produced In the United
| States, less imports and exports, and
for use In legal cereal beverages OF
less than u Of l per cent alcohol
content. and for medicinal purposes,
24,994, 900 pounds Of hops. q
Brewers used about y of a pound
| Of hops to produce 80 gallons of beer.
Taking into consideration more
wasteful methods in home brewing
| the bureau has used as an index fig
ure one pound Of hops to % gallons
| Of beer, based on inquiries directed
to home brew makers and producers
Of hoped malt.
On this basis 1t would have been
possible to make 683 ,O32,O00 gallons
Of beer In the year ending June
80, 1880.
The sources Of struggled liquor are
quite definitely known. BY treat,
arrangement with foreign countries
information is available Of cearance'
Of ships containing liquor probably
destined for this country. In add
ton to this, United States Officials
in foreign lands also furnish such in
formation.
Considerable Canadian liQuol
shipped out Of that country finds it
way back into Canada-to evade tn
high Canadian excise tax. The sam'
Is true Of shipments from other near
by countries. The coast guard patrol
also turn back many cargoes.

its full and unrestricted effort to re-
duce costs by use Of these machines
and methods; that the savings from
these reduced costs shall be shared
between labor. employer, and the con-
sumner.
1T is philosophy Of mutual interest.
It Is q practice Of cooperation for an
advantage that Is not only mutual
but universal.
Labor Stands to Gain
Labor gains either through in
crease Of wage O reduction Of cost
Of living or shortened hours. En-
ployers gain through enlarged con-
| sumption, and q wider spread Of dis
| tribution Of their products, consum-
ers gain through lower cost Of what
they buy. Indeed, mass production
must be accompanied by mass con-
sumption through increased standards
Of living"
Such q system Of industrial rela-
tions, he added, Is much better than
"doles Of various kinds which limit
the independence Of men,"
Mr.. Hoover said an increase q

Of public and private construction
had helped take up the slack Of un.

Our freedom from strike and lock-
out" he added, rs well evidenced b,
the statement Of the department O
labor that, In the last depression
there were more than 1000 labor dis
putes. many Of them OF major char
