though McGraw was then more than year in retirement, he was easily the popular choice for lead ership, but there is some differ ence of opinion over the selection of his successor.
 An easy solution each year would be to name the manager of the championship club, in this case Bill Terry of the Giants, who has the further advantage of being the leagues all-star first baseman.
 Seniority, however, is a powerful factor and on the basis of it the job rightfully belongs to Bill Mo Kechnie of the Braves. Bill has been a National league manager, with one club or another, since 1922, when he succeeded George Gibson as pilot of the Pirates. Mo- Kechnie drove Pittsburgh and St.. Louis to pennants before taking charge of the Braves in 1930. He was named one of McGraw's aides for last years all-star contest.

INITIATION.
Already Feels Higher Living
Costs as Result of Re-
duced Harvests.
BY J. G. DoNLEY.
Special Dispatch to The star.


NEW YORK, July 24.-The con-
sumer is against imitation, for he IS
the one who has TO pay for none
tary experiments. That fact stood
out as long ago as last Autumn, when
there was sturdy resistance TO rising
retail prices. 1t Is being emphasized
now by the very definite part that
reduced harvests are beginning TO
play in the rising cost of living.
The consumers attitude is not q
matter Of opinion or OF emotion. 1t
is dictated by necessity. For the
more the consumer has to expend for
bare sustenance. the less he has left
for the purchase of things which he
can. in a pinch, do without. The
increasing cost Of living cannot fail
to stifien consumer resistance TO
higher prices in any and all direc-
tions. and it seems likely that this
large body of opinion will carry some
weight against political pressure for
further dollar depreciation.
Retailers have long seen the hand
writing on the wall For the last
three months the Fairchild retail
price index has declined. Quotations
on July showed a decrease of 05
Of ! per cent as compared with June
/. Current prices are l.6 per cent
below April /. But the level is still
well above that of year ago. The
low point of May l, 1893. was 694,
end on July /, 1888, the index stood
at 1913. The latest figure is 882.
In response to recent price reduc-
tions. retail trade has been holding
up fairly well, but it has not dis
played the vitality necessary to sup
port a reversal in the price trend.
One difhculty is that labor is not
so well employed as it might be. For
more jobs have meant fewer hours of
work and smaller individual pay en-
velopes In many cases. For the first
time since last January, both employ
ment and pay rolls showed declines in
and non-manufactur-
ing industries in June. This is not
unusual for the season, and some
pickup should be shown in August,
which may be reflected in rising re-
tail sales in September, october and
November.

CREDIT COMP PAN|ES
ARE STILL in court
Fargo Loaning Companies Will
Be Sued in Mercer County
Court in March

Dismissal Of the receivership OF the
Agricultural Credit Corporation and
the Guaranty Credit corporation OF
Fargo by the supreme court Tuesday
is only another step in what promises
to be a long -drawn-out and hard
fought legal battle, according to c.
H. Sanders, who was acting as receiv-
er under an order issued by Judge H.
L. Berry of the Mercer county district
court.
The supreme court, in another de-
cision Tuesday. upheld the right OF
Judge Berry to designate Mercer coun-
ty as the place where an action was
brought by borrowers from the two
companies for 10 per cent Of the
amount OF loans made by them. The
complaint alleges the 10 per cent was
paid for stock in the corporations and
was to be refunded when the loans
were paid. The borrowers claim In
their suit that the 10 per cent was
wrongfully converted by the two ag-
ricultural credit companies.
The companies appealed from Judge
Berry's order that they be tried ir
Mercer county, where many Of the
borrowers live, claiming that theil
place OF business was in Cass county
and suit should be brought there.
Sanders stated in Bismarck Wed
nesday that the action will be tried In
Mercer county in March for $4,000
which Is the amount involved. He
said that the total assets Of the cor.
poration had been found to be insult
ficient to pay the money back to the
borrowers, but if the action in Mercer
county is successful, efforts will be
made to have the money of the Dor.
roWers returned to them.
