corporations will be represented at
the Vancouver meeting.
While millions of dollars Of Cana
dian municipal bonds are in default,
most of these bonds are held within
Canada and some arrangement has
been worked out regarding the debtors
capacity to pay, so that little outside
interest has been shown in the sub
ject. The Vancouver bonds are large
ly held outside of Canada.
There is also some uncertainty over
the situation in Montreal. Toronto

AUBURNDALE, Mass, February 9
R.-Commodity prices at the end Of
the first week Of February moved up
ward slightly. Again a higher price
level was not due to a general advance,
but attributable to one outstanding
group, namely, live stock, which dur
ing the past week forged ahead to a
new high. Generally speaking COM
modify prices averaged lower, as a
review of IA individual groups showed
q declines, unchanged, while only
advanced. The hesitation in commod-
tty markets is due to the delay in the
gold clause decision and particularly
to lack of confidence in speculative
commodities.
Industrial prices registered the Sec
ond consecutive decline, while pre-
liminary reports indicate a tapering
OF In the volume of business activity,
which in recent months has steadily
risen.
Farm Prices UNCHANGED.
Agricultural prices remain un-
changed and this group has expert
enced considerable difficulty in ad-
vancing in recent weeks. Heavier i'm
ports Of grains from foreign sources
have caused price weakness, resulting
in the lowest quotations since last
Fall
Live stock prices again bounded
upward to a new high under the lead
ership of hogs. Even though cattle
and lamb prices were slightly lower,
the decline was counteracted to an ap-
preciable degree by the ability of hog
prices to advance.
Nonferrous metals recorded a frac-
tional decline, due to the decline In
lead to the 31a-cent level, which off,
set the minor price strength in tin.
Paint materials declined quite
sharply. and price quotations were
lower for rosin, shellac and particu-
larly zinc oxide.
Fine textiles also lost some ground
during the week as a lower price av-
erage developed in cotton, print cloth,
cotton yarns, as well as raw silk.
Coarse Textiles Rise.
Coarse textiles represent the only
other group in addition to live stock
which advanced during the week.
This advance was entirely due to a
slight increase in burlap.
Vegetable oils recorded the first de-
cline in months. The drop was of q
slight nature. Moderately higher
prices for olive and cocoanut oil were
Offset by limited weakness in cotton
seed and china wood oil.
Most important changes in the Nc
Gill weekly price index (1926 equaling
100) were as follows:
