Post-AAA Commodity Slump
Features First-Half Market
Curtailed Production Of
Nations Major Staples
Under Federal Control
Stimulates Prices
By A. A. PATTON
{ ASSOCIATED Press Statistician)


NEW YORK, June 29.-The
lowering thres. of increased sup.
plies bore down on commodity
prices in the first half of 1886.
When AAA was supreme-court-
ed out of existence, removing a
prop from farm prices, the logical
market reaction was a drop in
quotations. The inevitable ten.
dency in that direction was post.
poned, however, by shortages in
some staples resulting from trans
portation snarls throughout the
snow-bound middle wes., bringing
sharply higher prices in mid-Feb.
ruary.
The Associated Press weighted
index of wholesale commodity
prices reached a peak OF 1917 on
February ID, more than 80 days
after the AAA overturn. Largest
gamers during the period were
eggs, coffee, rubber, hogs, rye,
steel scrap ami lumber.
,Curtailed production of the ma
tion's major staples under federal
control in 1885 stimulated prices.
With the brakes released by the
supreme court the high levels then
existing led producers to plan
larger outputs fer 1885.
These impending supplies re-
suited in a steady chipping away
at values during the next three
months, driving The Associated
Press index to 71.31-the low for
the year to date-a.most 8 per
cent under the years high.
Drought Buoys Market
Prices stabilized from May II
to June Is, the index swinging be-
tween 71.98 and 71.31.
Drought conditions prevailing
over large sections Of the country
finally acted to buoy quotations,
the index breaking OFT of its mar
row range and crossing the ~
mark June 16.
The extent of the rainfall de-
ficiency this year is indicated by
the fact that Texas, Iowa, Hi
nois, Minnesota, Ohio, Nebraska,
Wisconsin and Indiana-largest
farm income producers in the
middle west-all had subnormal
rains.
Non-ferrous metals constituted
the only group in the index able
to chalk up gain during the first
six months. Livestock price in
dices declined Is per cent, food
II, textiles 10, agricultural 9 and
industrial 2.
Cattle Prices OFF
Cattle prices slumped more
than one-third during the half
Underlying the setback was cheaI
corn for food in 1885 and the re.
sultant large crop of good quality
beef that has moved to market
this year.
Wheat quotations were s,asheC
during the period. Larger plant
ings and a better winter wheat
yield outlook foreshadowed 6
crop considerably above norma
requirements this year. The seri
Gus moisture shortage in the Da
kotas-largest spring wheat state:
has acted to urn wheat price:
up in the past 80 days, although
this crop normally accounts fol
less than 20 per cent of total
wheat harvest.
Other percentage declines in
cluded: Turpentine down %
hides IT, flour 20, butter 16
eggs Is, silk Is and lard IL.
Cotton cloth slipped back II
per cent, with large mill stock:
and no apparent let-up in produc
ton schedules responsible.

I'm Which "WhiSkey" tretS oUer
and exposes some purely domeS-
tic Incidents
The Washington times., 1936-11-05

A goodly audience braved the
elements last night for the first
midweek night concert of the Ma
tional Symphony Orchestra, with
Guiomar NovaeS, Brazilian pianist,
appearing as guest artist. A high
measure of appreciation was ex-
pressed by prolonged applause fol.
lowing Miss Novaes' rendition OF
Beethoven's Concerto No. A." and
likewise DR.. Hans Kinder and the
orchestra came in for their share
of the demonstration.
The opening work, the overture
to "Euryanthe," (Weber) dis
played some powerful and richly
colored phrases from the orches-
ira, while there was intense
warmth and passion in the section
played by the muted strings.
The Schumann Symphony No
T." gave a good opportunity for
DR.. Kinder to exploit work filled
with melodic emotion. The spirit
of the dreamy romanticism of the
composer was caught to remark
able degree. The Scherzo, with its
mood of humor and whirling
dance, sometimes in smooth
rhythm, sometimes in irregular
beat, occasionally pausing for a
fugal argument, ended with a mad
romp and all too soon passed with
out pause into the last movement.
In the final movement, there
are frequent illusions to the theme
shown above, and after a number
of attempts, the full theme bios
SONS out into war-Song. With
measured steps the movement con-
tinues until the mad fugue Of the
Presto preSageS the ending in a
melodious acclaim of the whole or
CeStra.
Miss Novaes, in selecting Beeth-
ovens Concerto No. T." was for
tunate in having a display vehicle
that is probaly more "pianistic"
than most other concertoS. Cast
ing aside convention as to form,
the piano plays the opening mea-
sures instead of an orchestra pre-
Jude.
The opening theme of the first
movement has the same driving
force as that of the Symphony
No. S." and goes through an ex-
tended period of development and
elaboration. Miss Novaes carried
the piano solo through various
phrases, in which the orchestra
seemed about to appropriate the
theme, with a dash and clarity
that never allowed the solo in
strument to be submerged, yet was
not over prominent.
The movement, filled with bril-
liant arpeggios. sonorous chords
and swift and brilliant scales,
would have sufficed to show the
carefully wrought art of the SOLO
list, but the cadenza interjected be-
fore the coda section was a superb
example of display work.
With a sudden change OF mood,
as if having proven her technical
ability in speedy passages. the sec
ond movement was played with a

If the first movement had ap-

to be said even in the final

Take it easy with your exercise
program. Strengthen the body
gradually and be careful not to
everdo your calisthenicS. Rational
exercise enables you to produce
each day more energy than you
use up, and in this way you build
vitality.
Get out into the fresh air every
day. Your walk will not only tend
to increase your vitality and help
you relax, but it is the best guar

AS you walk, make determined
effort to hold the abdominal mus

flat line in front. Correct posture
will help you to counteract the
tendency to take on weight about

stood terrific siege for almost ten
weeks. This heroic garrison joined
the insurgents in charging the de-
tenders and finally the Socialist
troops scattered and fed south
ward over the Tagus river. Their
way to Madrid was blocked by
Francois columns.
Fascist bombing planes made sew
eral destructive raids on Bilbao,
killing large number of the citi-
zens, smashing innumerable build
ings and damaging two warships in
the harbor. The enraged govern

hostages were kept and brutally

age women were on their way to a
prison to kill 60 woman hostages
when they were dispersed by civil
guards.
That the Spanish government re-
