Commodity Price
Changes for Week
BY H. n. McGILL,

Editor. McGili Commodity Service. Inc,
Auburndale Mass.
AUBURNDALE, Mass, November 9
,Pl.-Commodity prices during the
first week of November recorded mod
crate strength but failed to reach the
higher levels prevailing month ago
The upswing was due to price strength
in six groups; namely. industrial and
agricultural products, hides and
Rather, non-ferrous metals, ferrous
metals and fine textiles. During the
week four groups declined while four
remained unchanged.
Higher prices for industrial prod
ucts, representing new high for the
year, were in alignment with further
stimulation in industrial activity
which in early November was esti-
mated at II per cent under normal.
Prices of industrial products are now
holding 81 per cent under the 1926
base.
Farm Prices Improve.
Agricultural prices also gained
ground during the week as higher
prices for barley, cotton, eggs, pota-
toes, flaxseed and butter more than
offset price weakness in corn, rye and
beans.
Live stock prices, representing the
third major group, failed TO partici-
pate in the price upswing and de-
clined to the loves. point since early
July. Lower quotations were recorded
for cattle and hogs while sheep and
lambs moved moderately upward.
Non-ferrous metals were slightly
higher, rejecting higher quotations
for quicksilver and tin. antimony rep
resented the only metal that declined.
Ferrous metals recorded substan-
tial gain. During the week price lists
for steel billets and bars were revised
upward which increased the COM
posite price of steel products. The
price level Of composite pig iron also
advanced.
Fine textiles also moved upward
during The week under the pressure of
higher quotations for raw cotton, cot
ton drills and raw silk.
Coarse Textiles Lower.
Coarse textiles, however, were
lower. primarily due to price strength
in hemp which was not counteracted
by fractional weakness in burlap and
jute.
Vegetable oils also represent one Of
the four groups to decline. Lower
quotations for cocoanut and China
wood oil more than offset fractional
strength in corn and cottonseed OIL
Most important price changes in

CURLING OF STOCK
MARKET UNLIKELY
Law Brokers' Loan Total Makes
Reserve Board Action Seem
Illogical.

special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. November 9.-As long
aS brokers loans continue below or
around the billion n-dollar level, it does
not appear logical to expect the Fed
eral Reserve Board to take any action
intended to curb the stock market.
says the Financial World, which points
out in its current issue that such loans
now amount to only l.84 per cent OF
the market value of listed stocks. as
against 2.57 per cent a year ago.
and more than per cent in 1929.
"The enire absence of any indi-
cation Of a top-heavy loan structure
in the speculative markets Is one OF
the most favorable aspects of the
present market situation" asserts this
publication.
Sooner or later, however. If the
advance in stock prices continues,
brokers' loans are sure to show a ma
tor increase" hence the conclusion
that the trend of brokers loans bears
Watching.

CANADIAN WHEAT
RUSHED TO U. S.
Sales in This Country Show
Heavy Increase Over Same
Period in 1894.
BY tho Associated Press.

By tho Associated Press.
WINNIPEG. November 9.-Cana.
dian wheat has found a market in the
United States in the last three months
even larger than last year when ex-
ports to that country first reached
sizeable proportions.
Wheat from the prairies has been
steadily trickling southwark and for
the first quarter of the 1886 crop
year exports to the U. S. are approxi-
mately two-thirds Of those to the
United Kingdom, figures showed today.
This is in spite of Accents -bushel
duty against Canadian wheat in the
United States.
From August to November l ex-
ports to the United States of duty
paid Canadian wheat totaled l0,226,-
900 bushels. In addition there was
another 2,507.000 bushels sent to
Southern mills in bond for re-export,
making a total of 1878, 900 bushels.
This figure compares with total of
1852 COO bushels shipped to the United
States in the same period year ago.

Chicago Grain

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, November 9.-Faced by
two holidays and two Government crop
reports impending, many wheat trad
ers took to sidelines today and prices
declined for lack Of support.
A black eye at the outset was given
to wheat values through failure of
the Liverpool market to respond to
yesterdays price advances this side
Of the Atlantic. Bearish sentiment
was increased later because of word
Of enlarged offerings of Argentine
wheat to Europe and of cheaper offers
OF new Australian wheat, whereas
Winnipeg messages told of only
meager takings of Canadian wheat
for shipment overseas
Wheat in Chicago closed weak, 3s-
q under yesterdays finish. December,
96-96ls; corn unchanged to 3s lower.
December. 58A-7s; oats unchanged
to u higher, and provisions varying
from cents decline to an equal ad-
vance.
Except Liverpool and Rotterdam, all
the leading worlds commodity mar
kets will be closed Monday. Armistice
day. The United States Government
crop report on corn production Is
scheduled to appear Monday after
noon, and the Canadian Government
crop report will be issued Wednesday.
Under such circumstances traders
hesitancy to enter upon new ventures
in the grain markets today had ex-
cellent reason, aside from uncertainty
over a final decision expected soon
on legal soundness of the wheat proc
essing tax and also aside from absence
Of definite knowledge about Canada's
future wheat-marketing policy.
Sharp watch by grain traders was
kept on Washington dispatches about
conferences between President Roose-
welt and Canada's premier. Particular
interest centered on whether any
lowering Of the United States import
duty on wheat would result. It is
estimated 100000 bushels of Ca
madam wheat, duty paid, have been
imported by this country In three
months.
Rainy weather over the corn belt
gave relative strength to corn and oats.
On the other hand, subnormal tenn
peratures were predicted for next
week.
Provisions reflected hog market
firmness.
