Commodity Price
Changes for Week.
BY III. n. McGILL.
Editor. MeGn Commodity Service, Inc

Editor McGill Commodity Service, Inc.
AUBURNDALE Mass. July IA LP).
Commodity prices during the sec
ond week in July moved upward under
the stimulus of rising prices for ag-
ricultural products. Although the
drought was broken several weeks ago,
actual growing conditions for the sea
son to date have proved the most ad-
verse on modern records, and as re-
suit final production of both bread
and feed grains will inevitably reach
the lowest level in several decades
Most groups during the week recorded
weakness, but downward movements
we're confined to industrial units. A
check-up shows that during the week
six groups declined, four advanced,
while four remained unchanged.
Industrial commodities showed no
change from the previous week. A
horizontal trend has been in effect for
more than three months. Industrial
activity during the second week in
July moved downward in keeping with
seasonal characteristics.
Farm Prices Climb.
Agricultural prices were the first in
the four groups to advance, and re-
feet higher prices for grains and cot
ton. In the case of wheat, a statisti-
cal analysis shows that the prospective
crop, coupled with the carryoyer will
only cope with domestic requirements,
and leave negligible quantity for ex-
port trade.
Live stock prices showed some dis
position to weaken. Although cattle
and sheep prices successfully ad-
vanced, this advance was more than
offset by the decline in hogs and
lambs as compared with week ago.
Hide and leather prices lost some
ground, as there was a fractional de-
cline in the price of hides.
ferrous metals also moved
downward during the week. The only

Takoma Park "drys" will invade
the District Building tomorrow
to importune the District Com
missioners to make that neighbor-
hood the only official dry zone
in the National Capital.
A public hearing at which the
Citizens Association Of Takoma'
D, c., will have its opportunity
to present its case has been set
for 10 o'clock, when the associa-
ton is expected to present a map
of the section which it wants to
be made into a local Sahara.
The hearing is another phase
of the active campaign to keep
beer, wine and hard liquor out
of Takoma Park, that has been
going on ever since the District
went wet. About three weeks ago
the Alcoholic Beverage Board IN
formed the Commissioners that,
if Takoma Park is to be made
dry territory, the A. B. c. Board
has no authority to make the
decision and that it is up to the
Commissioners"
d. C. Heads Back Out
The Commissioners hastily re-
ferred the matter back to the
A. B. C.. Board with the Sugges-
ton that the liquor business was
in the hands of the latter board
and that all requests for liquor
licenses must be settled by the
beverage board.
The A. B. C. Board frankly
states it has no intention Of de
claring Takoma Park a dry area
and Is willing to grant the four
licenses for which applications are
now pending, If it can be done in
accordance with the law.
