NEW YORK, Aug. 20 0.N.S).
Retail trade turned stronger this
week, recovering from the lag OF
the two preceding periods, accord
ing to the review by Dun and
Bradstreet.
Display of fresh fall merchan-
disc was the center of consumer
interest. Requirements of students
also helped swell the sales total
for the week, but most of the
volume was due to August promo
tional events. ",
Rapid distribution was effected
in furniture, floor coverings, and,
other housefurniShings. Gains
were also reported in sales of gar.
mentS.
Gain of sales over the preced-
ing week were set at 2-5 per cent
and over the same week of last
year at IL to Is per cent for the
country as a whole despite the.
decline in drought areas.
Buying at wholesale now at q

pace prevailing since late in july

BULK WHISKY
PRICE RAISED

The price of bulk whisky has
been raised cents a gallon by
several major diStillers. The
action was said to be the result
of higher costs due to rising grain
prices.
The new listings, adopted earlier
this month, are so cents a gallon
for bourbon, delivered, and IS
cents a gallon for rye, delivered,
with cooperage extra.
Although general conferences
were being held throughout the
industry on the price situation,
leading distributors of case goods
were extremely doubtful change
in retail liquor prices was an early
possibility. j.,
Hiram Walker and Continental
Distillers were said to have in
augurated the higher bulk whisky
prices.
While bulk whisky is used ex-
tensively for blending and bottling
purposes, major distributors to
the retail industry were emphatic
in stating no revision in market
prices for standard products was
contemplated.
It was pointed out in trade cir
cles that the cost Of spirits for
blending has been moving up for
several months without affecting
retail costs. The advance has ap-
proximated 10 cents a gallon the
last two months, or approximately
Is per cent.

CHICAGO, Aug. 20 G.N.SJ.
Firmer tendencies prevailed in the
general grain list in early dealings
here, wheat and corn each rising
around a cent a bushel after an
irregular start.
A rally in the Winnipeg market
inspired firmmness in wheat here.
September corn opened 112c off,
recovered most of the loss but fell
back again. Deferred options
moved up moderately after a
slightly lower start.
Near mid-session wheat was 3s
to 1ac up, corn 58c up to 24c off,
oats unchanged to 14c up, and rye
5s to 34c up.
Winnipeg wheat was 3s to 1ac
up at mid-session and Liverpool
closed 1 to 13s penc eoff. Rotter-
dam closed IA to 23sc off.
The weather map showed fairly
heavy rains in the Ohio Valley,
but none of consequence elsewhere
in the grain belt.

Modern Food knowledge
Prevents UndeTY1uETitiOn

ines which used to De heralded In
the newspaper by p:tifu pictures
Of the bloated and emaciated chill
dren.
In an address before the American
Institute Of Nutrition at Washington
in March, DR.. James s. McLester,
then president Of the American Med
ical association, undertook to inquire
as to whether this seeming freedom
from nutritional disease in America
is real or simply apparent Other
countries have not been so fortunate.
In Austria, a year or more ago, q
study Of school children showed g.
distressing incidence Of underweignt.
Studying 10000 school children in
Birmingham, an industrial commu-
nifty which might be expected to
suffer more than any other, Dr. Nc
Lester found that the average weight
and height were even slightly better
in 1884 than in 1927.
After a careful investigation Of the
entire country, it may be safely said
that the nutrition Of the school child
has not suffered. It is the children
upon whom nutritional distress falls
heaviest, and it is encouraging to
know that the relief agencies in the
schools have so far warded off the
worst effects Of the depression.
But the good results have gone far
Their than that.
There is no widespread undernu-
| triton" says DR.. McLester, "the gen.
eral population, as whole, seems to
be as we'll nourished as formerly.
although, no doubt. there are
many exceptions, the vigor Of the
American working man Is not recog-
nizedly inferior to that of earlier
years" s
| The reason for this noteworthy re-
suit Is that our relief agencies have
learned the lesson of the new science
of nutrition. Instead Of handing out
any kind of slop and salt food, they
have furnished their dependents with
! a really protective diet.
