Trade Trends

By the Associated Press.
Cotton cloths - Several constructions
are quoted well above the levels pre-
vailing last Friday. Narrow sheetings
are up cent to 112 cents a pound.
Some print cloths and broadcloths have
risen u cent yard
Pig iron-Some business is moving
despite the banking suspension. Two
or three carloads are said to have been
bought since Monday and inquiries are
IN the market for small amounts.
Textile prices - Owing to uncertain
ties in the banking and currency situa-
ton some mills have withdrawn price
lists recently announced to the trade.
Such action has been taken by some
cotton ribbed underwear manufacturers
with respect to their Fall, 1888, lists,
and by large knitting mill on informal
prices previously quoted on sweaters.
Rice-The market is steadier, with
sentiment rejecting prospects OF re-
duced acreage and smaller crop. Ex-
port demand is said to have picked up
slightly in recent weeks.
Copper-S Sellers continue unwilling to
sell far ahead on the basis of cents a
pound, and are doing little business for
nearby delivery. Foreign buying, In
active for long time, fell to still lower
levels in the last few days, according to
trade interests.

SENATORS WEIGH
MILK BOOTLEGG|NG
Independents Spokesman
Says Thousands of Gallons
Shipped in Illegally.

Milk hearings before the Senate Dis
trict subcommittee were In recess today
as Senators considered a maze of testi-
nony tending to show price-dxing,
monopolistic control and the bootleg
ging" Of unlicensed milk into the Dis
trict by dairy companies.
Evidence of the "bootlegging" was
introduced at the close of yesterdays S
hearing in crowded committee room
in the Senate once Building. The COM
mittee will resume hearings Saturday.
Norman Simpson, special committee
accountant, testified that annually since
1928 thousands of gallons of milk and
cream have been poured into the Wash
ington market by shippers who have no
licenses from the District government
to deliver to diaries.
Diaries engaging in the practice he
named as Fairfax Farms, Marcy
Bros, Wakefield, Walker Hill and
Model Farms.
A spokesman for the independents,
James j. Ward, of Walker Hill, fol-
lowed Simpson to the stand and testified
he had asked repeatedly the Maryland
and Virginia Milk Producers Associa-
ton for "direct-shipped" cream-rs;lk
which already has been compressed
into cream-but had been unable to
obtain an adequate supply.
Discloses Figures.
Ward said he had told John Nc
Gill, jr., secretary and manager of the
association, that he knew outside cream
was being shipped into Washington
and that unless the association pro-
ducers could supply his needs he would

Gill as replying:
'If you thing there's cream coming
in, you have got as much chance as
any one else"
Simpson disclosed that since 1898,
134,274 gallons of cream and 36.579
gallons of milk have been shipped into
Washington unlawfully. The cream
shipment represented 1,342,740 gallons
Of milk and deprived the dairy farmers
In this area of just that amount of
market for their product, Simpsons
testimony tended to show.
Shipments by years, as represented
In milk, were as follows: 1928, 5000
gallons; 1929, 193,63o gallons; 1880,
305,086; 1881, T2,168; 1882, 327,073,
and 1888 (to July ID. 275,570.
Tells of Shipments.
The milk was shipped from PennSyl-
vania, Maryland and Virginia, Simp-
son said He told the committee that
one Baltimore shipper, Samuel D.
Miller, delivers milk to dairies here that
is bought from the National Dairy
Products Corporation subsidiary there,
to which Isaac w. Heaps, producing
milk car, ships all his milk
Senator McCarran of Nevada, vice
chairman Of the investigating COM
mittee, wanted to know If the cream
shipped here Is being reconstructed
into milk, but no one answered his
query.
Ward testified that In many cases
the outside cream was more expensive
to his dairy than the cream bought
from the producers association. He
said laboratory tests compared favor
ably.
At least a portion of the cream
shipped by the unlicensed shippers rep
resents milk sent into Washington by
authorized producers and shippers, sent
OF the market and then brought back
through unlawful channels, Simpson
testified. He said he had been told this
by an Alexandria ice cream company
official, one of the unlicensed shippers
