Heat Wave Helps
Grabbing Industry
On Eastern Shore
By the Associated Press.

BY the ASSociateo fress.
CRISTFIELD, Md, June 1.-THE
grabbing industry of the Lower East
ern Shore Of Maryland began to boom
during the last week as the warm
weather brought hundreds of crabs
into the shore, about a month later
than usual.
During the last few days crabbers
have caught from 200 to 400 "peeler"
crabs and from one to three barrels
of hard crabs apiece. The average
price paid here was "a cents for
each "peeler" and about SIS a barrel
for hard crabs.
Waterman had feared there would
be a shortage of crabs this Summer
because of the extremely cold Winter.
1t was believed the cold had killed
large portion of the :rustaceans.
Up until last week, the catches have
been extremely small
With the increase in the local pro-
duction, packers have been opening
up their plants, finding sufficient
supply to meet the demand Many
of them earlier in the season had to
send trucks 100 miles in Virginia to
get enough crabs to hold their own
trade.

DECLINE IN TRADE
ACTIVITY W|DENS
Summer Drop Is Expected
to Average Not More
Than 10 Per Cent.
Special pispatch to The star.

NEW YORK, June lin its
weekly summary of the general busi-
ness situation. the Standard Statistics
as follows:
"Recessions in business activity and
in prices of finished goods have be-
come more general during the last
week. AS estimated for May the
Standard Statistics Co. index of in
dustrial production has been placed
at 1872, compared with 1873 for April
and 1919 for March. At present,
however, it appears unlikely that the
Summer decline, after allowing for
the seasonal factor, will be more
than 10 per cent from the recent
peak.
"Steel production has continued to
run counter to the general trend, pri-
marily because of rush orders for
stock purposes. Although the earn
ings outlook for the trade in the
third quarter is impaired by a pros
pective reduction in activity, fourth
quarter results promise to be better
than those for the similar period in
1898.
Price reductions on less expensive
automobiles foreshadow sharp COM
petition in this group. Crude oil pro-
duction and stocks of motor fuel, on
the other hand, have continued to
decline, placing the industry in a
stronger position. Electric power out
put has shown sharp seasonal declines
in recent weeks, although still holding
above 1888.
With the settlement of several i'm
portant strikes, the crest of labor dis
turbances appears to have been
reached for the time being, although
full solution of the policy differences
between capital and labor has by no
means been achieved. In the Mid
die Western drought areas, conditions
have been slightly improved by scat
tered rains. and prospects for the late
staple crops would be measurably in
creased by more rain. In any event,
Government aid will prevent serious
reduction in farm purchasing power.
Most prevailing uncertainties ap-
pear of a relatively temporary ma
ture. and resumption of the uptrend
of general business is still in pros
pect for the Autumn"

BLOW TO CHINA SEEN

SALES CURB LAID
TO AUTO PRICES
Hamilton Institute Ayers
Sharp Rise Has Served to
Check Demand.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

OpCIldi DiophbCll W 1uC oldI.
NEW YORK, June l1.-Automobile
production this year would exceed
$780, 900 cars, almost double the 1882
output, if prices were lower, says the
Alexander Hamilton Institutes cur
rent bulletin.
"Since last September" says the
institute, "the index of automobile
prices. on the basis of 1926 as 100,
has advanced from 904 to 978 While
the national income is sufficiently
large this year to make it possible to
sell more cars than in 1888 despite
the rise in prices. it is still too low to
permit any such volume of sales as in
1929 at the present level of prices.
The average price in April was only
11.8 per cent lower than in 1929,
whereas the present national income
indicates that the price reduction from
1929 should be much greater in order
to stimulate a demand which would
permit the pre-depression rate of
operations.
Although at the present time there
IS movement on foot to cut automo-
bile prices. and some companies have
already announced price revisions, no
great general reduction is in prospect
because of the sharp rise in wage rates
and the relatively high price of steel
There is evidently a market this
year for an annual output of only
100000 cars at the most. In fact. it
is quite possible that production will
not reach this figure in view of the
drought and the consequent indica-
ton that the farmers income may not
be as large as previously estimated.

Drought Boosts
Crop Prices More
Than q Per Cent
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June 1.-THE great
American drought, stimulating trad
ing in grain futures at the Nations
markets, has been a contributing
factor in a crop price rise of better
than 81 per cent in little more than
a month.
Despite heavier buying and selling
of future contracts in anticipation of
the agricultural status at the end OF
the 1884 growing season, there has
been no general revival of public par
ticipation in the market, traders as
Sert.
On the contrary, a striking absence
of broad buying power to sustain sud-
den price rises on bullish news, in
dicating a dearth of public specula-
ton, has characterized trading, au-
thorities said
The price of wheat has increased
10 cents, corn, Z cents; oats, is cents,
and rye, 9 cents in approximate fig
ures since April 80.

NEW YORK, June 11.-Under pres
sure of heavy supplies and declining
demand, says the United Business
Service, prices of manufactured goods
are now tending downward. Textile
prices have been dropping since Feb
ruary, and further concessions are ex-
pected. Prices of many food items
are lower. Furniture prices are weak
ening. The larger automobile manu-
facturers have sliced quotations. Steel
scrap is cheaper. 1t appears that the
increases put into effect on the
strength of higher operating costs, or
imitation expectations, are not justi-
fed by the present level of purchas-
ing power Attempts at price fixing
will yield under the stronger force Of
supply and demand.

Santa Anita Race
Meet Under Way
Time Supply Favorite in
Christmas Stakes.

By United Press
SANTA ANITA PARK, Cal, Dec.
25.-Billed as the greatest meeting
of its kind the country ever has
known, the horse racing season
opened here today before $4,000 fans
after 25-year lapse.
The $4,000 AIDED Christmas Stakes
featured the racing of the day, but
it was a minor symphony in the
overtones OF the grand-scale open
ing.
This opening drew attention to
the most modern of racing plants,
the finest horSefieSh ever assembled
at any track, the worlds top purse
and the return of big-time racing
to Southern California.
And all this was taking place on
ground sacred to racing people, for
the new race track is situated on
what once was the Santa Anita
ranch of the late E. j. (Lucky) Bald
win, prominent in early California
history.
Fifteen horses were entered in the
Christmas stakes, which was one
mile. Probable post favorite was
Mrs. F. A. Carreaud's Time Supply,
leading money winner of the late
1884 season. With victories in the
$4,000 Narragansett special and the
$4,000 Bay Meadows Handicap to
his credit, Time Supply was rated
in overnight odds at to to win.
He carried top weight of 1868.
