CENT ADVANCE
QUESTIONED
BY AAA
D. c. Among 9 Cities
Where Gains Exist,
Survey States

Bread bakers in Washington,
one of nine cities in the country
where bread prices have risen in
recent months, have been request
ed by the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration to explain
the price boost.
Officials of the AAA became
alarmed when it appeared that a
nationwide bread price increase
was imminent in September, and
made check-up, with the result
ant announcement today that the
threat apparently has subsided, al
though six or seven weeks ago 'it
was evident that the bakers were
getting ready for a general rise"
Nine Cities Involved
Washington, officials pointed
out, was among the cities in which
the price actually went up. The
others are Philadelphia, Pitts
burgh, Milwaukee, Los Angeles,
Toledo, Dallas, Hartford and Al
lentown, Pa.
incidentally, Washington was
reported by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, Department Of Labor,
as one of the cities in which
the greatest boost occurred, the
increase here being one cent.
Meanwhile, Secretary of Agri-
culture Wallace, pointed today
to the fact that the cost Of
ingredients Of bread has been
going down since the price issue
became acute.
In his letter to the bakers,
Donald E. Montgomery, con-
Sumers' counsel for the AAA,
asserted that the consumers are
entitled to be advised Of the
cause of the price increase in
their respective cities. If the
bakers submit the information
requested by Mr.. Montgomery, it
will be a voluntary action on
their part.
Cooperation Asked
"If you have increased the
price of your white bread, either
through an advance in price or
reduction in size of loaf" Mr..
Montgomery wrote, will you CO.
operate with us in making avail
able to consumers in your city the
information called for in this
schedule?
I'm order that this may be done
without disclosure of the private
records of any company, I hereby
specifically agree with you that
the information which you fur.
nish will be treated confidentially,
will be published only in combinar
ton with information from Other
bakers, and will in no case be so
published as to permit Identified.

Sow Bean Proves Aide
To Paint Industry

It used to be that the farmers
main job was to produce the ma
tons food. Today, however, the
farmer is supplying industry with
constantly increasing quantities of
his produce for inclusion in all
types Of manufactured products.
G. G.. Sward, of the scientific
section of the National Paint, Var
nish and Lacquer Association,
says:
There is the soy beans. for in
stance. Until recent years, it
was thought of mainly as a for
age crop. Then the chemists
got busy and discovered that,
among other things, soy bean
oil could be used in the manu-
facture of some paint products.
To-day it is probably one of
the best known Semi-drying oils.
Although it does not give good
film itself, it forms a mixture
with other oils that is satisfac-
tory for some paints. The use
of soy bean oil in enamels tends
to retard yellowing. For water
prOOfing goods, such as OilclOth
and linOleum, treated soy bean
oil mixtures effect soft, elas-
tic film and do not crack
easily"
Naturally the use of the soy
bean in this manner creates an
enlarged market for the farmers
product and aids agriculture.
"The rise of the soy bean in
the last decade has been de-
cidedly dramatic. 1t has been
magic, rising from the test tubes
of chemistry. Many and varied
are the products that can be and
are being manufactured from
the versatile bean. Soy beans
are used in dozens of food and
feed products. In the industrial
field, the oil is utilized in paint,
varniSh, enamel, Oilcloth, limo
leum, glue, glycerine, printers
ink and many other products.

be several million bushels larger

American lung Oil

The first carload Of drums of
American.grown tung oil has just
been shipped from the Mississippi

tung nuts were grown at several
points in the two States and the
oil was extracted in BogaluSa, La.
This shipment, approximately
2,700 gallons, is the largest yet
made in this country.
Tung oil, used in the manufac-
ture of paint, is obtained mostly
from China. The fact that this

10000 Lives in j. ).
Lost Yearly in Fires

The annual loss from fire, di-

by the National Fire Protection

about 10 per cent of this loss was

|PAINTERSWARN
OF WINTER

The coming of fall focuses at
tention on the Importance of pro-
tecting wood, metal and masonry
before the damaging storms OF
winter strike.
1t is recommended by paint ex-
perts that home owners check
over their properties for the So
called danger spots" These are
the warnings of deterioration that
mean heavy expense in replace
ments and repairs if not attended
to right away.
Painting should rot be put off
until wood has begun to weather
or metal has begun to rust. The
longer the work is delayed, the
more difficult and expensive it
becomes.
