WHEAT SHOWS
STRONG TREND
IN SLOW DEALS
Initiation Talk Provides
Most of Basis for
Upturn.
BY HAROLD f. RAINVILLE
United Press STAN Correspondent

CHICAGO, April Wheat prices
ran up more than a cent bush
el on the Board of Trade on Fri
day on initiation talk, but persistent
selling by interests identified with
the farm board checked the upturn.
Later there was a small reaction
when houses with eastern connec-
tons sold.
The other grains followed wheat,
but corn was less active than Of
late. Eastern shipping demand was
less pronounced Oats was dull,
but rye showed signs of independent
strength.
Close Is Higher
At the close wheat was p to =
cent higher; corn "a to 4 cent
higher; oats unchanged to 4 cent
higher; rye to J "a cent higher, and
barley unchanged to u cent higher.
Provisions we're dull and steady.
Trade was light during the morn
ing with most operators watching
Washington for news of the farm
bill and awaiting the announcement
of the farm board holdings, due
Saturday. Liverpool was stronger
than anticipated and closed 4 to
Il cent higher Receipts were cars.
Cash prices were y to q cent
higher.

INDIANAPOLIS STATEMENT
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-04-01
Wages 1914 Per Cent

These factors are combined to
show that the industrial population
as whole, including both employed
and unemployed, is receiving only
33.4 per cent as many dollars in
wage income as in 1929. But the
extent to which prices have declined
is taken into account in computing
industrial purchasing power.
Commenting on the significance
of its findings, the conference board
says: Whether the figure 45.3
represents exactly the present re-
duced purchasing power or whether
it varies slightly one way or the
other is immaterial. The significant
fact is that it is less than half of
what it was when industry was &C
tive. When one of the largest and
most dependable markets of Amerj-
can industry has contracted by more
than one-half it is small wonder
that efforts to increase industry
activity meet with little encourage
ment."
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-04-01
Buying Power Needed

The Importance of restoring and
modifying purchasing power, the
conference board points out, is basic
in any program for business re-
covery. Many of the special eco
nomic problems that have arisen
during the depression have their
origin, it is commended, in the fact
that industry can not produce be-
cause there is little market for its
product.
Since the ultimate consumer does
not purchase in any volume, fac
tories are idle or working on part
time, and therefore railroads are in
difficulties because of the low de-
mand for transportation.
The consequent loss of earning
power of invested capital is reflected
in depressed security prices, which
in turn complicate the problems of
large holders of securities, such as
banks and insurance companies, the
report continues. The conse-
quences of lost purchasing power
have multiplied in an ever widen
ing circle, it is represented.

had CONSTIPATION
SINCE BIRTH OF
MY FIRST Child"
Then Mrs. King Discovered
ALL-BRAN

We quote from her voluntary
letter:
"T have suffered from terrible
constipation since the birth of my
first child % years ago. / have
tried everything and nothing had
any lasting results. Very reluc-
tantly tried your 'ALL-BRAN' with
no faith in it at all. Much to my
surprise, / have not had to take
amy medicine since starting to use
ALL-BRAN, A months ago."-Mrs.
Doris Eyre King, 16 Abbey Road,
Oxford, England.
Laboratory tests show ALL-BRAN
contains two things which over
come constipation: "Bulk" to ex-
ercise the intestines; vitannin B to
help tone the intestinal tract.
The sebulk" in ALL-BRAN is much
like that of leafy vegetables. In
side the body, it forms q soft mass,
which gently clears the intestines
of wastes.
Certainly this is more natural
than taking patent medicines =
often harmful. Two tablespoonfuls
daily are usually sufficient. If not
relieved this way, see your doctor.
ALL-BRAN also supplies iron for
the blood. At all grocers. In the
red-and-green package. Made by
Kellogg in Battle Creek.

$500 900, little of which has been
used in exploitation of the mining
project for which the association
was organized. He said much Of
