R.F.C, MORTGAGE
UNIT GETS BUSY
Refinancing of Commercial
Real Estate Properties
Expected to Widen.
BY FREDERICK GARDNER.
Associated Press Financial Writer.

Refnancing Of commercial real es-
tate properties under Federal auspices
is expected to assume broader dinen-
sions next year as emergency relief
operations for farm ard urban home
owners taper off.
The r. F. c. Mortgage Co.. organ
lied last Spring to extend real estate
relief activity, has approved more
than 1000 loans, totaling about $685.
100000, for refunding mortgages
against so-called "income-producing
properties" mostly in cities. They in
clude apartment, Office and other
commercial buildings.
Only about S5,000,000 Of the total
has been cisbursed, but r. F. c. au-
thorities pointed out their mortgage
unit got late start and could be
considered as merely in the opening
phase Of its prospective operations.
Like the Reconstruction Finance
Corps pressure to cheapen railroad
financing, its activity in the real
estate mortgage field is looked upon
in financial quarters here as partly
aimed at Fastening a decline in the
long-term rate of interest for con-
struction loans.
The r. F. c. Mortgage Co., capital
lied at $4,000 900 and having poten-
tial resources far beyond that, is re-
financing at 5 per cent mortgages
bearing higher rates.
1t was organized to take up the real
estate relief task where the H. o.
L. C. and the farm credit agencies left
off and to restrict its work mainly
to distressed situations. However. un-
der special circumstances, some loans
are being made to encourage new
construction.
Officials professed to see big op-
portunity for financial rehabilitation
in the commercial property field, hard
hit by depression and carrying debt
burden second only to urban homes.

Commodity Price
Changes for Week
BY III. n. McGLL,

Editor, McGil Commodity Service, Inc,
Auburndale, Mass
AUBURNDALE, Mass, December %
P).-Commodity prices during the
final full week of 1885 recorded an up
swing. The index started the year at
70.a G926 equaling 1000 and closed
at 744. The highest point Of the year
was reached during the second week Of
October-758. In general, prices ruled
downward during December and last
week out of IA groups, only three ad-
vanced while five declined and six re-
main unchanged
Industrial prices held steady during
the week, closing the year at 724 as
against an index figure of 1913 at the
beginning of the year. Meanwhile, in
dustrial activity has reached the high
est plane since 1880, largely due to the
substantial revival in the capital goods
industries.
Farm Prices Steady.
Agricultural prices remain un-
changed during the last week, closing
at $50, as compared with 706 at the
beginning of the year. Buying in
terest in general is limited, pending
the decision of the United States Su-
preme Court regarding the constitu-
tionality Of the A. A. A. program and
the processing tax which is expected
in the near future.
Live stock prices strengthened, clos
ing at 86.5 as against 666 at the be-
ginning of the year The extreme
peak was 94.9 during the second week
in September. The situation is fea-
tured by a continuation of subnormal
market receipts.
Building materials were slightly
lower, rejecting moderate weakness in
the price level of the Southern pine
composite.
Non-ferrous metals registered a
substantial decline. Silver prices
dropped to a new low of 4924 cents,
while tin broke well under the 49-
cent level.
Fine textiles strengthened moderate
ly as raw cotton closed higher as
compared with a week ago and spot
silk was also somewhat stronger.
Coarse Textiles Down.
Coarse textiles declined, entirely
due to lower prices for burlap. Vege-
table oils also moved downward, as
during the week price weakness IN
