Trends of Week
BY III. n. McGuL,

Editor. McGil Commodity Service, Inc.
AUBURNDALE, Mass, May (P.-
AL commodities maintained the mo-
mentum of the upswing which has been
in force since early March. The level
is now the highest since the first week
in December, 1882.
The advance has not been limited
TO one or two groups for at the end
of the first week in May the industrial
group was up per cent; agriculture,
28 per cent; hides and leather, 80 per
cent ferrous metals, 2 per cent; paint
materials, 81 per cent; fine textiles, 80
per cent; coarse textiles. 10 per cent,
and vegetable oils, 27 per cent from
the extreme low in this record breaking
depression. During the past week out
of IA individual groups 10 were higher,
only l lower and 3 remained un-
changed.
Industrial Prices.
Industrial prices recorded substan-
tial gain, largely due to hides and
leather, metals and textiles. Statistical
aspects appear to have little weight in
determining the price level, for in the
case of copper, cotton and rubber
three outstanding examples OF exorbl-
tant reserve stocks-price strength has
either been maintained or continued.
Reports from industrial centers during
early May show moderate but favorable
improvement.
Agricultural prices which have ad-
vanced more than any other group,
now stand at the highest level since
last February. The increase during the
past week was due largely to higher
levels for grains, wool, cotton, haxseed
and eggs.
Live stock prices represented the only
group that failed to gain. Since the
beginning of the upward surge in COM
modify prices live stock quotations have
f1uctuated within narrow range, ex-
periencing difficulty in developing inde-
pendent price strength or an upward
movement in alignment with the IL per
cent increase in the index for all COM
mCditieS.
Hides and leather during the past
week recorded sensational price in
crease. Prices of hides, packer, are
now 7a4 cents, compared with low
earlier in the year Of cents, while
sole, betting and upper leather also
averaged higher.
Textiles were also sharply higher
during the week under the leadership
of cotton, which is now Al per cent
above the low for this year poted last
February Wool also moved upward
about cents during the past week,
while the trend of silk was irregularly
upward.
Non-ferrous metals continued the
climb. rejecting higher quotations
principally for tin.
Ferrous metals are now higher than
at the turn of the year due to price
strength in iron products and steel
scrap
Vegetable oils maintained the upward
momentum which has been noted in
recent weeks, the index now standing
27 per cent above the extreme low.
The three groups which showed no
price change during the week were
chemicals, fuels, paper and pulp.

Most important price changes in the

NOk-FERROUS METAL
INDUSTRY IMPROVES
Curtailment in Output and Infla-

Better Trade Outlook.
BIZ the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, May 6.-The non-fer-
rous metal industry, in the opinion of
some producers is not depending alto
gether upon initiation for future profits
but hopes to climb to higher prices
through continued curtailment of out
put and general internal improvement
Spot copper, which sold just under 5
cents a pound last year. is now around
634 cents; zinc, with an average 1882
low of about 2l2 cents, is now up to 334
cents. while lead, which also sank to
around pig cents during the past year,
is holding at about 3l2 cents.
Copper producing operations have been
nearly on a shutdown basis. Analysis
say they do not hope for any great i'm
provement in this department soon.
since the public utility industry, one of
the major consumers of copper, is not
in position just now to justify addi-
tional plant expenditures. Non-capital
goods consumers. however, may change
the picture somewhat.
Producers of lead and zinc. like the
copper miners, have been getting down
TO bedrock in curtailment of operations
and the supply of these metals on hand
Is not nearly so burdensome.

lowered wheat values today.

weather, indicative of crop dangers
later on.
Big new buying Of corn afterward
hoisted that grain afresh and wheat as
well. Corn went higher than was the
case early, and wheat overtopped yes
terdays finish. The rise OF corn car
ried the market to the highest point
since November. 1881. On the rally,
wheat hovered around the seasons top
quotations, but weakened again under
selling to realize profits.
Indications of persistent widespread
rains that promised further serious de-
lay to planting accompanied the soar
ing of corn prices. On the other hand,
public buying Of wheat appeared to be
confined largely today to periods when
the market showed price setbacks.
Most professional traders in wheat
leaned to the selling side for the time
being. The fact that the Liverpool
wheat market was higher today than
expected, and that British exchange
was at the topmost figure in more than
two years, was virtually ignored. Oats
were neglected.
Provisions tended upgrade with corn.
