Matters Pending
Should the RFC refunding neg
citations continue until the 1896
district levy is made and collected,
Hewes said. he hopes to make
these collections available for ap-
plication to repayments under this
RFC program.
Hewes spoke briefly of two mat
tiers now pending in congress and
which are of extreme interest to
the irrigation district.
The first of these is a proposed
amendment to the bankruptcy act
which would renew the authority
under which the district is able
to carry on its refunding applica-
ton. From present indications.
Hewes said, it appears that this
amendment will be carried through
in spite of opposition.
The second measure. which
mean a savings of S3,000,000 to the
district, is a bill calling for the
reduction to 3 per cent Of interest
paid on loans by the government
to farm districts. This is also
being opposed but appears on the
read to be carried through sue
ceSsfully, HeWeS said.
Il am greately encouraged by
the results of my trip to Washing
ton, Hewes said. and. will con
tinue my best efforts toward see
ing this program through to a
successful end. The telegram Sent
during the past week by Directors
Aten. Young and Morrow indicat-
ing that they stood behind me il
this program helped greatly to
clear the way in the negotiations
and showed that almost the entire
board was definitely behind the
program as I outlined it to the
Washington officials"
Hewes said that in all probable
ity an ALLEGATION of S6,50O0OO will
be made during 1867 for fur
Their construction work on the All
American canal. He stated that
while in Washington he had taken
steps to ask the reclamation SER
vice supervision that part of this
money be used to construct canal
power plant substructures.
This move would be of great
aid in the furtherance of our
power development program, the
district president said.
First Hand Data
HeWes told Ct other discussions
and Investigations relative to the
status of the amended power ap-
plication now before PWA and
reaffirmed the previous informa-
tiCn that no funds were available
for this at present and that pos
sibly as soon as funds are at hand
either DR.. Clarke Foreman or some
of his engineers will visit the val
ley TO get firsthand information
and a picture of the local situation.
The district president also con-
suited with the chief counsel of
the Rural Identification Admins
traticn in overcoming some of the
objections existing in the districts
contract with that agency and eff
forts are being MADE to eliminate
these objections by working with
the REA California counsel, Geo.

RETAIL INDEXES
PUSH HIGHER
IN CAPITAL

Trend of retail indexes here
during the first 13 business days
of the current month has been
upward.
Recent colder days have &C
CELEBRATED this upward movement,
and while it is possibly too
early to attribute much of the
current merchandising activity
to Christmas shopping" never
theless, there is an active under
current of interest in many
Christmas lines.
This early evidence Of buyer
interest in practically all retail
lines has encouraged local mer-
chandise executives in the belief
that, when the full swing Of
holiday trade gets under way,
Washington will find that it is in
one of the best business seasons
in many years.
Those who come into contact
with the buying public find a
new and more cheerful psychol-
ogy pervading all classes. Fear,
which so long gripped many
potential buyers, has disappeared,
according to these merchandising
experts and has been replaced
by a feeling of optimism

CURBGAINSCU7
BUT VOLUME
KEEPS UP

NEW YORK, Nov. 18 U.N.S).
While Curb stocks continued gen.
orally higher in later trading to-
day, the market began to hesitate
and minor irregularity developed
as prices eaSed from best levels
established shortly after the open
ing.
Trading volume continued heavy
but pricewise the list was making
little headway. A 3-point gain in
Aluminium of America was one
of the better advances.
National Auto Fiber gained
more than 2 points to 1917. Fisk
Rubber preferred netted almost 2
points and a series of issues, in
Guiding Pittsburgh Plate Glass, Ir-
wing Air Chute, and Niles Bement
Pond gained a point or more.
EaSiness developed in Technicolor
Sherwin Williams and Jones
Laughlin.
Gains in the utility shares were
minor on the whole. Such issues
as Electric Bond and Share and
Niagara Hudson Power remained
at fractionally higher levels, but
were under peaks. Electric Power
second preferred netted a point,
while Empire Gas preferred lost
as much.

GRAIN FUTURES
SWEPT HIGHER

CHICAGO, Nov. 1S G.N.SJ.
Another buying wave swept
through the grain pits on the
Board of Trade today, with feed
grains leading the upturn.
Corn and rye advanced more
than a cent and soy beans 212c to
lift all deliveries of these grains
with the exception of old May
corn to new highs for the season
and longer. Oats gained 12c, with
July in new high ground.
Around midSeSsion, wheat was
1ac to Sec up, corn SEC to Tee up,
oats 1ac to 3sc up and soy beans
2Ac to 212c up.
The December soy bean future
reached $1.36A a bushel, repre-
Senting a gain of 101ac in the last

cember 81. The summary added
"MOre speculative buying has
occurred in pig iron than in
steel. At Chicago new business
and shipments are near the
peak for the year. Some fur
mace interests are expected to
insist that all current bookings
be shipped or Cancelled as Of
December 81. Stocks of pig
iron in the hands Of producers
have recently been reduced and
output may not be increased
greatly during the next few
months because of coke short
age. A steel company furnace
at Cleveland has been forced to

pairs, which will include an en-
largement of its capacity. It
Is predicted that an 80 per cent
operation of steel making Ca

BACKLOGS REDUCED

schedules over the remaining
weeks Of the year, as backlogs
have recently been reduced. In
plates and structural shapes the

Tin plate production has declined

Steel ingot output is subject to

COTTON PRICES
EASE SLIGHTLY

NEW YORK, Nov. 18 G.N.S.).
A slightly easier tone developed in
cotton futures in later dealings
and the list turned down after an
irregular opening.
Trading volume was not heavy
and the list was dull. Liverpool,
the continent and the trade re-
mained principal buyers while
the South and spot houses dis
posed of the staple.
Towards noon the list continued
quiet and slightly lower apparent

curity and grain prices.

NEW YORK, Nov. 18.-Buyers
ana sellers of steel are awaiting
an announcement by one of the
steel producers that will indicate
the amount of the price advances
expected for the first quarter.
Latest indications are that the
new prices will be 81 higher on
semi-finished, SO on bars, shapes
and plates and either SO or 81 on
sheets and strip, according to the
Iron Age summary.
Carnegie-IllinoiS Steel Corpora
tion on Tuesday announced a
change in tin plate prices, effec-
tive January / to $4.85 per base
box, Pittsburgh, and $4.95, Gary,
and the discontinuance of the 71a
per cent discount which became
general under the NRA steel code.
While the official prices Of tin
plate now in effect are $5.25, Pitts
burgh, and $5.35, Gary, the dis
count resulted in a net price Of
$4.86, Pittsburgh, which all users
have been charged for some time.
Prices on light coated manufac-
turing terne plate, also effective
January /, have been announced
as $4.15 per base box, Pittsburgh,
and $.25, Gary. The Pittsburgh
price was $3.50, subject to the 712
per cent discount, which is also
discontinued on this product.
Little Forward Buying
Meanwhile, mills are not en-
couraging speculative buying, and,
as a matter of fact, there has been
comparatively little effort in that
direction among buyers except in
sheets, in which most of the mills
have little or no tonnage avilable
for shipment during the re-
mainder of the quarter. 1t is init
mated that mills may decline
shipment during the remainder of
the quarter. 1t is intimated that
mills may decline to make any
orders at present prices that can
