BIGGER FRUIT CROP
THIS YEAR IS SEEN
Greater Part of Supply Is
Outside of Area Stricken
by Drought.

Although less than an average crop
of all fruits combined is expected over
the country as a whole, production will
still be about Is per cent larger than
last. year, according to August fore
casts, based on the condition of the
United. States Department of Agricul-
ture. Bureau of Agricultural Economics,
market news service. The greater part
Of the general fruit supply is outside of
the area where the greatest drought
damage is reported. The commercial
apple crop in New York, New Jersey
and Pennsylvania combined, according
to the August forecast, would be not
only larger than last year, but also
slightly above average.
But the continuation of the hot, dry
weather since the first of August may
reduce prospects in those States a little.
The New England and Western States
are the only sections of the country
which give real hope for better-than-
average crop of apples.
Through the Central States, where
the drought has been most severe, less
than two-fifths of an average pear crop
is expected, but according to the August
forecast, New York may have a record
production of 1882 900 bushels. Grape
production is estimated about average
and about II per cent larger than the
crop of 1929. Drought conditions seem
to have been less injurious to grapes
than to any of the other generally
grown fruits, quality is expected to be
good although the berries may be some
what smaller than usual
New York. Michigan and California
were supplying the bulk of the daily
apple output of around 100 cars in mid
August. Other Eastern sections were
shipping small quantities. Prices were
generally fairly well maintained. APP
Piles of the Rambo, Starr and Wealthy
varieties ranged from $l.25 to $l.85 a
bushel in Eastern cities.
New Jersey was supplying nearly half
the potato shipments in mid-August,
and the shipping season had opened in
Maine. Total shipments from all
sources varied from $50 to SIS cars a
day. Slow demand was reported at New
Jersey shipping points the middle of
the month, and prices dropped off about
20 cents Range Of $3.50 to $1.60 at
Central Western points compared with
the $1.65 level that New Jersey ship
pers were getting. Undertone OF the
potato market in general was firm
Eastern markets reported sales of New
Jersey CobbIers at SITS to $210 per
100 pounds Long Island stock brought
$1.S5 to $i95 in New York. Barreled
stock from the Eastern Shore of Mary
land and Virginia ranged $40 to $3.50
in the East.
A reduction of more than per cent
was shown in the potato prospects in
the August reports On the basis of
the condition the first of the month,
total potato production may be 5 per
cent below average of the last five
years and only per cent larger than
the short crop of 1929. Conditions in
New Jersey, New York and New Eng
land continue to indicate better than
average yields, except in Aroostook
County, Me- where excessive rains may
have brought the yields down below
average.

CARIBBEAN POLICY
OF u. S. IS PRAISED
Author Describes New Break
From 0Id-Time Conquest
Relationship.

WILLIANSTOWN. Mass, August 16
The policy Of the United States in the
Caribbean was described as one of the
most interesting experiments in the
history of the world" by Dr. Henry
kittredge Norton of New York, publicist
and author, at the Institute of Politics
today
Conquest and Submission Old Basis.
Never before have the relations be-
tween great power and the surround
Ing areas been on any basis except that
OF conquest ON the one hand and sub
mission on the other" he said. only
In the Caribbean is it possible to find
such states as Cuba, Haiti. Santo Do
mingo, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica."
Why are these sovereign stateS?" he
asked, pointing out that other island
areas of the world. although more popu-
lous, are all imperial appendageS."
1t is because the United States has
refused to follow a hitherto universal
precedent" he said. BY all the age-old
rules of national growth the islands of
the Caribbean and the mainland as far
South as Panama should long since
nave become American territory
Hoover Policy Described.
President Hoover's policy toward the
Caribbean was defined by William Eng
1ish Walling, New York publicist, as
giving governmental support to eco
nomic intervention rather than to eco
nomic Imperialism
That is Walling said, "our economic
interests are apparently expected to
establish themselves by their own efforts
IN these countries, unaided by the Amer
lean Government.
'Once established, our Government is
ready to use diplomatic and financial
pressure to see that the governments
Of the countries invaded shall not loosen
their foothold."

EXPANSION

The semiannual report of the

ness for any corresponding period

the result of speculation, is
the opinion of Mr.. Hurd.

guaranteed mortgages including
extensions of mortgages already

PRICE CHANGES
NARROW

NEW YORK, July II G.N.SD.
The stock market met stubborn
opposition in efforts to extend
the recovery drive of the past
two days. and the general run of
trading leaders was forced into
a temporary trading area, with
a more or less unimportant set
of price changes.
The general impression in Specu-
lative circles was that yesterdays
brilliant upturn at the expense of
an over-crowded short interest
had weakened the technical struc-
ture of the market and their
previous sad experiences in fol
lowing up temporary rallies in the
past had chastened the bull
traders to a considerable extent.
U. S. Steel reached 1904, for
a fractional gain, but eased off
to 1894 later in the forenoon.
Pivotal industrials were well sup
ported, however.
Profit-taking on a large scale
was evidenced in the utility
section.
Auburn reached new high on
the current upward swing at
112A, up 2A points, but sold off
later in sympathy with other
motor shares.
Commodity markets ruled
steady, with but nominal changes
in wheat and cotton. Call money
was in good supply at 212 per
cent.

CHrtGiLn1ent to Halt
NeW Bond Financing

While a substantial amount of
bond financing for foreign ac-
counts is expected over the bal
ance of the year, it is doubtful in
view of the curtailment of expan-
sion programmes in practically all
lines of industry that the total Of
new bond financing will continue
to keep pace with the volume Of
the first five months of the year,
according to a survey of the bond
market by Mackay & Co.
In any case, the report points
out, the evidence appears to justi.
fy the opinion that prevailing
easy money rates are likely to
continue for some time and will
eventually be reflected in mate
rally higher bond prices.
