Cocoa Prices Rally
On Hedge Covering

Demand from large consumers
for Sanchez cocoa from Santo
Domingo caused a strong under
tone in the cocoa market during
the latter part of the week at
the New York Cocoa Exchange.
Although the market closed prac-
tically unchanged for the week.
early losses were erased. The
buying of the Sanchez cocoa in
the spot cocoa market resulted
in hedge covering at the New
York Cocoa Exchange with a sub
Sequent firming up Of prices. An
other favorable influence to
prices was the consistent support
in the July position at the ex-
change despite the fact that SO
transferable notices were issued.
Gables from the Gold Coast,
informing traders that a part of
the middle Accra crop would not
be harvested because of current
low prices, was interpreted as an
indication that an area of Stabili-
zation had been reached for
cocoa prices.

Demand that the Federal Farm
Board purchase 1O0, 900, 900 bushels
Of wheat to save wheat growers
from disaster will be laid before
President Hoover today by Sen
ator Capper, of Kansas.
Cooper yesterday declared the
situation so critical that only
by huge purchases by the Farm
Board can the price be stabilized.
At present prices, the lowest
since 1914, wheat growers are
facing a staggering loss, Capper
said.
President Hoover's action is
being awaited anxiously. for the
wheat situation bids fair to be
a major issue in many fall cam.
paigns.
Chairman Alexander Legge, Of
the Farm Board, has declared
that the board cannot increase
its farm holdings.
Legge and Secretary of Agri-
culture Hyde are on a tour of
the wheat belt urging growers
to cut down their production as
the only way out.

Turn for Better Is Near

Decline Important
But in spite of these uncertain
ties about the figures, I regard
this tentative decline in commod-
ity stocks as the most important
bit of evidence that improvement
in business lies ahead which has
appeared thus far.
1t is confirmed, to a slight ex-
tent at least, by a little gain in
the Governments index of un-
filled orders after allowance is
made for seasonal variation. AS
reported, the figure was down,
but not quite as much as usual
in May.
We must remember that busi-
ness recessions result from busi-
ness booms. We get up too high.
and have to come down to get a
fresh start. that is what we are
now doing.
Cuts Mean Corrections
Each report of curtailed pro-
duction means another step in
the correction of past overpro-
duction. Each price cut means
a move to clear the shelves and
progress in liquidation.
The recent slash in prices made
by the Chicago mail order houses
is an intelligent procedure which
should be more widely followed.
/ do not forsee business recov-
cry for at least three months.
but such developments are bring
ing us to a point where We will
be able. to see daylight ahead
before long.

While this is no time for care
less optimism, and most business
barometers still point downward,
there is at least one indicator
which is now headed in the right
direction. At least, important
Government figures for May
show q turn.
This is the index compiled by
the Department of Commerce
showing the trend of commodity
stocks. One of the most needed
developments at the present time
has been a liquidation Of accu-
mulated inventories of commodi-
ties, including manufactured prod
ucts.
The tardy Government report
for May is Just in. 1t shows
stocks Of manufactured products
at the end of May (based on
the average for 1923-25) to be
11S per cent. This compared
with 124 per cent in April and
124 per cent a year ago.
Signs Of Readjustment
If we can assume these figures
to be correct and final they are
distinctly encouraging. The sur
est sign that the necessary read
juStment in business is well along
Is found when the surplus of COM
modities begins to dWindle. It
means that production is less than
shipments. 1t may mean that
prices have been cut low enough
to stimulate buying.
Unfortunately these figures are
subject to frequent revision, so
that one cannot be sure that the
May index will stay put at 118
per cent Of 1923-25. Judging by
experience I would say that some
change will probably be made.
Moreover, it Is hard to say just
what items did the declining. We
know stocks Of copper, lead and
zinc increased. So did stocks of
cotton cloth, paper and lard. Gas
oline stocks decreased, but less
than usual. Perhaps declines oc.

NEXT BUSINESS
TURN SEEN AS
UPWARD
By LESLIE GOULD


Business is now scraping bot
tom.
The next turn will be upward.
That is the view conveyed to
me by the heads of two Of the
country's largest corporations.
Business took a sharp drop
after the first of the year, but
In recent weeks it has been gently
rising and dipping like ocean
swells on a quiet, hot summer
day.
How long this will continue,
they would not hazard a guess.
But both said from their past
experiences, covering many years
and several business receSSionS,
an upturn always followed pc
riod of gently rising and falling
activity.
ReceSSions in trade are nothing
new to the business man. They
are only interludes to more pros
porous times. They provide time
for reorganization, increasing EFF
ficiency and elimination Of the
weak spots in preparation for the
good times that are sure to come.
Stocks Up On Week
The Stock Market for the sec
ond consecutive week finished
with a gain. Trading was on
small scale. Only on one day
did sales exceed 100000 shares
that was on Thursday.
The selling movement that got
underway just before three-day
Fourth of July holiday was car
ried over through Mondays seS-
sion and into Tuesday. Around
noon on Tuesday a rally was
started and extended through the
opening yesterday. A break in
wheat prices to new lows checked
the advance, and the weeks
gains were cut in half by last
nights closing.
The rails, motors and copperS
were the weeks outstanding
strong group performers. The
rails in fact led the rally, with
Atchison at it's best levels up
about 80 points JohnS-Manville,
du Pont and Air Reduction
sagged to new lows for the year
in the Monday-Tuesday selling.
While the immediate outlook
for the market is favorable,
prices of many leading issues are
still too high. So the safest
policy is to continue side line
position. Those making pur-
chases now should be willing and
able to hold on for six months.

Inventory Encouraging

While business continues to
plod along practically unchanged
one favorable point brought out
by the midyear stock taking is
the relatively small amount OF
inventory. This will be one OF
the most important factors in
the ultimate business recovery.
r. G. Dun in its trade review
says:
"In its broader aspects busi-
ness has deviated little from its
preceding course, the principal
gain being in factors which,
while not stimulating actlvl-
ties now in any marked degree,
have a constructive bearing on
the future"

COOLIDGE DAM Ariz., March S.
Coolidge Dam, towering tri-domed bar
rier of steel and concrete which holds
back the turbulent waters of the ella
River. today stands dedicated as a mon
ument to Uncle SANS faith in the most
pastoral of Southwestern Indian tribes
the Arizona Pimas.
The huge structure dedicated yes
terdaY by Calvin Coolidge, former Pres
ident of the United States in whose
honor 1t was named, will provide irri-
cation water, first, for 10000 acres of
land in the Pima Indian Reservation,
and then water for an additional 10000
acres in the Florence-Casa Grande VAL
leys of the lower Gala. The dam proper
stands at the head of Box Canyon, in
the Apache reservation, and will form
lake, when filled, which will bury the
Apache trading post of San Carlos be-
meath 125 feet of water.
Mr.. COolidge's Address.
Standing on the parapet of the dam,
Mr.. Coolidge dedicated the project to
the advancement Of religion, education,
better homes and a better country"
In the same brief speech he also called
upon the People OF the Southwest to
dedicate theI1selves to the task Of COM
pleting the louder Canyon Dam, which
reclamation project"
Scressing the Importance of water
conservation in Western States, the
former President called upon the States
of Arizona and California to settle their
differences on the Boulder Dam ques-
ton. He suggested that Arizona and
citizens of Nevada, Utah and California
as well, take their Bibles and read the
admonition, Agree with thine adver-
sary quickly"
Represents National Policy.
The former President said the Cool
idge Dam represented q national policy
and gave a brief outline of the 30-year
governmental program for the develop
ment of the water places of the West.
This is one of the great national
projects" he said. 1T win make this
country more productive and bring in
larger income. think you should
devote part of this increased income
to better promote religious life. You
should devote some of 1t to q better
system of education, and then you
should think Of more conveniences and
comforts for your homes.
so it seems to me that we ought to
dedicate this to the advancement of the
Nation, to the benefits of education, to
the making Of better homes and the
making of better country"
Smokes Pipe Of Peace.
Following the dedicatory ceremonies
Lewis D. Nelson, Pima Indian and
spokesman for his tribe, asked Mr..
Coolidge to participate with himself and
the chief of the Apache tribe in snok-
ing the pipe Of peace.
For years the Pimas and Apaches
fought each other in these hills, and
until recent years they were bitter enc
miles," Nelson said. To-day we are go
ing to smoke the pipe of peace and end
forever the bitter feeling that caused
bloodshed in earlier days"
Mr.. and Mrs. Coolidge left for the
East at o'clock last night.

 The special counsellors. Paul More, former president of the Paris court of appeals, and Henri Buteau, refused to divulge the terms of their verdict, but it was understood the terms laid down by Raymond Poin- care, former president of France, were accepted categorically. It was announced that a communique would be issued as soon as the, terms had been submitted to Prince Louis, pres ent ruler of Monaco and father of Princess Charlotte.
 Attorneys and judges arrived for the nights sitting in automobiles with blinds drawn. No one, not even Poincare himself, was permitted in the counsel chamber. Princess Char lotte and Prince Pierre were repre- scented by their personal counsel from Monte Carlo.
 Meanwhile all Europe, particularly society, awaits the official con- munique and news from Monaco as to whether the decision meets with tho royal father-in-law's approval.

 When Jack Goehring is an old man he will tell his grandchildren about that intense drama i'll the scrub palmetto, and the wild flight homeward with the dying dog in his arms. And probably he'll tell them. even as he sobbed to his mother when he finally laid down the rigid little body:
