BREAD PRICE BOOST
EXPECTED IN 1885
Increase May Result From
Short Wheat Crop.
BIZ Lnited Press

bU I N{tt0 EFtSS
WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Bread
prices may go up slightly next year
because of the record short 1884
wheat crop of 100000 bushels.
but AAA officials said today that
stiff increases would be unwar-
ranted.
A pound loaf of white bread now
costs about a cent more than last
year. The price is computed as an
average Of flfty-one communities
and approXimates 80 cents.
Last years wheat crop totaled
about 527,OOO00O bushels and prices
rose accordingly. Increased wheat
prices were reflected in the rising
price of bread, which also was af-
fected by NRA codes and the proc
essing tax.
With an even smaller crop indi-
Gated for this year, a rise in bread
prices was considered inevitable.
The AAA consumers counsel will
seek to prevent the price from be-
coming too steep. 1t was empha-
sized that wheat supplies are am
pie to meet domestic demands and
price boosting on the excuse of Sc
we're shortage would be unjustifiable.
Secretary of Agriculture Henry A,
Wallace said prices of most farm
products would necessarily be ma
terially higher" next year as the re-
suit of the drought.

There is sufficient evidence" says
the firm in its analysis of the earn

siderable authority that the i'm
provement has been primarily in the
heavier industries supplying capital
goods in contrast to the poorer

cluded the chemical and oil indus

The firm points out that the

garded as particularly interesting be-
cause the increase in earnings was
