LEADING
IN PRICE ADVANCE
Short Crop BIamed-Big
ueSt Decline Is Shown
in Egg Cost.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The price to consumers of the
plebian potato has increased more in
the last year than any of the other
staple food prices investigated by the
Consumers Counsel of the Agricul-
/ tural Adjustment Administration.
Potatoes advanced from an average
of 1.5 cents pound in mid-January,
1893, to 2.6 cents pound In mid
January, 1884, the reason for the 10
per cent increase being the short crop
Agricultural observers say that owing
to the small amount of potatoes in
storage, further price increases are
likely.
Flour registered the second largest
price increase in the last year, going
from an average of 29 cents a pound
to Al cents pound. a gain of 81 per
cent. Next comes rice with an in
crease from 6 cents a pound to rs
cents, or rs per cent.
Eggs Take Big Drop.
The biggest decline was in the price
Of eggs, which fell of II per cent
in the last year. A. A A officials
report that while consumers have
been paving less for eggs, farmers
have been getting still less, the farm
price being 1s per cent below the

bread prices ranged from 81 cents a

Milk prices have been much steadier
than butter prices. At retail, deliv-
cred milk cost per cent more than a

were 5 per cent lower to the grief
of the dairy farmer. Government

Chickens Slightly Higher.
The average price for hens is cent

while leg of lamb prices are within

Leg Of lamb prices have been going
up recently, high wool prices and
improved consumer buying power
making further advances likely.
The retail price of pork chops has
scared 81 per cent in a year but sir
loin steak is down per cent, rib roast

the United States weather bureal
have compiled some records about
other winters that are most inter-
esting. Take example, the coun-
try-wide blizzard of 1888. The boys
and girls of those days, those who
say, do you remember way back
when," insist that that was win
ter which really was winter. The
later generations point to the "war
winter" of 1917-1S, period of ex-
cessive cold and of great snow
throughout the United States east
of the Rocky mountains. The Far
West was much warmer.
Two outstanding winters were:
1912-Severe cold weather dur
ing the first three months of the
year when unprecedented ice form

1t was during this cold spell that

that they are uncertain whether
there is a majority of farmers in
this country now favorable to the
New Deal farm program.
Consumer to Be Heard
1t seems reasonably certain,
therefore, that the discussion of
farm legislation in the new con-
gress will develop that which has
not been developed before, namely,
the voice of the consumer. There
is also likely to be violent express
sions from the corn and hog pro-
ducers because of the procession
taxes on hogs. A goodly number of
farm leaders believe, after SURVEYS
among actual farmers, that the
processing taxes on hogs have been
taken out of the farmers hide and
not the hog.
1 told you some weeks ago that
there was every prospect of a pro-
posal to repeal the Bankhead cot
ton law. That movement has gain
ed in momentum beyond belief. The
Department of Agriculture, under
Mr.. Wallace's direction, is taking
census, "a vote, on the question
whether this law should be contin-
ued. The result is that congress
will find that question on it's door
step also, and don't forget that op-
ponents of the Bankhead law are
real fighters. Those who claim to
have suffered damages under it be-
lieve that one dose is enough, and
If they do not gain their point one
way, they will accomplish their de-
sires in another, much to the cha
grin of Senator Bankhead of Ala
bama, who made so many long
speeches in its behalf.
Mr.. Wallace stated that he ex-
poets the main drive against pres
emit agricultural laws to be in favor
of removal of all restrictions on
production. He thinks that is a
ridiculous course to follow. He
proposes to give present schemes
of control time for trial in order
to perfect them. In this he has the
whole-hearted support of the New
Deal professors who clutter up De-
partment of Agriculture offices in
numbers greater than in any other
government department. The pro-
fessors have their contacts at the
Capitol, and they use them. Thus,
observers here feel that opponents
of the present adjustment act may
not win unless the objections claim
ed to exist among the farmers
themselves are made vocal.
Bankers Distrustful
Notwithstanding President
Roosevelt's speech at the annual
convention of the American bank
ers' association here, speech that
was believed at the time to have
salved the bankers feelings, con-
siderable distrust of administration
policies has begun to accumulate
among the banking fraternity. 1t
was noticed before the appointment
of NJ. S. Eccles as governor of the
federal reserve board, but it has
become much more evident and
more vocal since. The reason is
that Mr.. Eccles is considerably
more of liberal than most bank
ers and businessmen. Frankly, some
of the important bankers Of the

country fear that Mr.. Eccles will
go far to the radical side in direct
ing affairs.
While most financial authorities
are not now alarmed over the pros
pect of any initiation by means of
reckless running of printing
presses, they do fear that the banks
of the country will be forced into
the position of buying government
bonds whether they desire to do so
or not. l was told by one banker
"a man who has served in official
capacity in Washington, and there
fore knows this field as well as
banking, that he would not be sur
prised if banks were assigned GER
tain blocks of bonds which they
must buy in the course of financing
by the treasury in the next two
years. All of the conservative thot
In the country looks upon this, of
course, as next to printing press
money in its inflationary tenden-.
cies.
Glass Would Fight
AS the laws now stand, it appar-
emily would be difficult for the
treasury, acting through the fed
eral reserve board, to tell any par
ticular bank how many government
bonds it must absorb. But it would
not be difficult to change the law
SO that any bank could be alIocated
a stated amount of bonds and be
given the privilege of turning over
those securities to the Federal Re-
serve bank for currency.
Obviously, such financial stud
ents as the veteran Senator Carter
Glass, Virginia Democrat, would
fight to the death against what he
believes to be misuse of the fed
eral reserve system and the coun-
try's banking structure. There are
several other Democrats, who
would follow the Virginia senator's
lead. The belief, however, is that
there are not enough to defeat such
aproposal were it sent to congress
with the administrations blessing.
There is banking legislation
scheduled for this coming session.
Its scope has not yet been deter
mined, but it will be more far
reaching than the previous legis-
lation and, in all probability, there
will be some brand new pet scheme |
put forward by professional advis-
ers who have been called into con-
ference by Secretary Morgenthau |
and his aides. Then there are the |
findings Of the senate committee |
on banks and currency to be con-
sidered. The committee, as will |
be remembered, held lengthy hear
ings and exposed certain types of |
banks. Whether the members of |
that committee and the admins
tration will attempt to bind the
whole banking structure hand and |
foot because of the rotten spots
found in several apples in the bar
rell, is too early to forecast.
Because weather affects our
daily lives as nothing else, it !
proves an ever fascinating subject.
