SLIGHT PRICE CUT
BYA.A.A. DECISION
Fractional Changes Are
Noted in Limited Field
in D. c. Stores.

Housewives are getting the benefit
of some fractional food price declines
within limited field as the result of
the end of the A. A. A. processing
taxes, 1t was disclosed today.
Sugar and -four are down about
three -fourths of a cent a pound and
rice q half cent, it was said by one
wholesaler and an offlcial of a CITY,
wide cooperative chain. So far as
sugar is concerned, however. it was
amplified, prices fiuctuate and there is
no telling how long the quoted figure
Of so cents for 10 pounds will hold on.
Corn products-sirup and starch
were reported down today, but the
wholesale price decline Of 3 to z cents
q case for the former and 4 cents for
the latter were felt in one quarter to
be too small to aid the consumer.
It was expected that cereal prices
would show slight drop to consumer.
A steady market for some time was
forecast for pork, due to what was de-
scribed as shortage"
Doubt was expressed that there
would be any sympathetic" downward
movement OF food prices to accompany
declines IN those commodities affected
by the termination of the processing
tax.
r. S. Haddad, manager of the Dis
trict Wholesale Grocery Co., said that
merchants were in for loss on stocks
on hand wherever the commodity took
q cut.

Cost of Production Cam.

Upon Congress.

BY the Associated Press.
pES MONIES, January s.-Milo
Reno. gray-haired leader of the farm
ers' holiday movement, today tossed
his "cost of production" program into
the mixing bowl of A. A. A. substi-
tutes.
Reno announced he would leave for
Washington Saturday to lead the
Farm Holiday Associations battle for
"cost of production plus a reasonable
profit"
Called both the disciple of dis
content" and the champion Of the
underdog," Reno has been identified
during the last three years as one OF
the minority farm groups most mill
tant leaders.
Farm Strike Backbone.
His exhortations for cost-of-produc-
ton farm relief provided the back
bone of the farm strike which dragged
out through two years, and climaxeo
with the dragging of District Court
judge from his bench at LIE Mars.
Reno said he was invited by E. H
Everson, national president of the
Farmers Union, to join with other
holiday and union leaders in mapping
a cost-of- production program that
would gain congressional acceptance
Defeated in all previous attempt;
at passage, the program calls fol
legislation to insure each farmer &
cash return that would meet his pro-
duction costs, plus a reasonable
profit"
Not Invited to Farley.
Secretary Wallace did not invite
Reno to attend the A. A. A. confer
ence Friday and Saturday, Reno said
adding, but that was not surprising.

Navy and Army Growth
Noted in Reports

CECRETARY of the Navy Claude
~ Swanson, who it is believed may
retire from the cabinet, made his
annual report to the President show
ing that the navy had made con-
siderable progress in its program to
build up to full treaty strength.
At the end of the 1886 fiscal year
last June 80, the secretary said,
the navy had under construction 70
vessels. Further, the 1887 appropri-
atoms act provided for the building
of Is vessels as requirements for
average ships and for the begin
ming of construction in 1887 of two
battleships The capital ships are to
be built only in the event battle
ships replacement construction is
commenced by great Britain or
Japan, the other signatories to the
London treaty of 1880.
The secretary emphasized the
need for auxiliary vessels, which
service and supply combat vessels,
as necessary to the maximum eff
cheney of the fleet. Present auxiliary
vessels are old and unfit and should
be repaced with modern craft, he
said.

Der of the same group, announced
wage increases averaging 10 per

about $50, 100000 year to the in
dustry's payroll. In most instances
the increases were to take effect
November Is. According to compi-
lations of the American Iron and
Steel institute they will affect $685.
700 employees throughout the coun-
try.
Committees acting for employees
at more than dozen plants rejected
the offer, demanding higher pay.
Negotiations in these cases are
therefore continued.
Directors of numerous big cor
porations authorized special divi-
dends to stockholders and wage bon
uses to workers that will release
many millions of dollars. This is
in pursuance of the policy of avoid
ing so far as possible the stiff levies
imposed on undistribated profits un-
der the revenue act of 1886; and
also, in most cases, in recognition
of improved business.

Jackknife Important Tool

Up to few years ago the jack
knife was one of the most important
tools of the home, especially in the
country. We might say, notes a
writer in the Montreal Herald. that
our great-grandfathers lived in a
wooden age, for a great many of
the everyday utensils were made of
wood, as metal articles were scarce.
Therefore, whiting was an art with
the boys of those times, and it was
in winter that much of this whit
Ting was. done. The knife was for
making things that were of some
value or use, and not merely for
passing away the time.
