WHOLESALE INDEX
CLIMBS FURTHER
Fertilizer Association Finds
Average at 88.3, Against
87.4 Week Aqo.

The wholesale commodity price in
dex compiled by the National Ferti-
lizer Association, showed a substantial
rise last week, reaching the highest
point recorded since Msy, and was
only 0.5 per cent under the years high
point of 887.
The index stood at 883 based on
the l926-l928 average as 100. COM
pared with 87.4 in the preceding week,
874 month ago and 779 year ago.
Increases in the food and farm prod
uct group indexes were largely respon-
sible for the increase registered by the
all-commodity index. Higher quota
tlons for butter, eggs, flour and meats
took the food price index to the high
est point In IA consecutive weeks.
The farm product group index rise
was due primarily to a substantial ad-
vance in grain quotations, with smaller
rises taking place in live stock and
cotton prices.
The live stock price average again
was at new high point for the en-
tire recovery period. Lower quota
tions for wool, burlap and cotton yarn
were sufficient to Offset the mark-ups
in cotton and silk, with the result that
the textile index remained UNCHANGED
for the week.
A fractional increase was registered
by the metal index, the result of higher
prices for brass products and tin.
The chemical and drug and fertilizer
material group indexes also were
higher during the week,

ADVANCE IN AUTO
PRICES WEIGHED
Boost to Meet Costs Rise
May Have Tendency to
Curb Demand.
:recial Dispatch to The Star.

- CSAeA 0AepatSA w AAc otoA'
NEW YORK, July Tt Is possible
that the prospective increase in the
normal demand for automobiles this
year will be modified by rise In the
years average price for motor cars,
says the Alexander Hamilton Institute.
There is talk at the present time Of
a 10 per cent price advance. On the
basis Of present costs, it is apparent
that higher prices are needed.
Workers in the automobile factories
are now receiving an average wage Of
about 86 cents per hour This COM
pares with rs cents a year ago and
with an annual average of 60 cents
at the low Of the depression in 1888.
AS compared with the pre-depression
wage of IS cents in 1929, the present
figure is 14.6 per cent higher. This
represents real increase in labor
costs, since the output per man-hour
is certainly no higher now than in
1929 and is possibly lower, as some
evidence indicates.
In addition to higher labor costs,
there has been a sharp increase in
the price of raw materials. The aver
age price Of steel, for example, is now
2605 cents per pound, according to
the compilation by the Iron Age.
This compares with 2097 cents year
ago and with the annual average Of
2297 cents in 1929 The present price
OF steel is thus 1874 per cent above
the pre-depression lavel
Since automobile prices at the pres
ent time average about Is per cent
below the 1929 level, it is evident that
they are underpriced. Economies in
other directions can hardly make up
now for the present high cost of labor
and raw materials relative to automo-
bile prices.

Alicia Blair watched her brother
with amused eyes. She really
thought a lot of him but her air
of sophistication hid it quite COM
pletely. Honestly, Phil, how
you can even dream of giving up
New York for some out-of-the-way
place in the west, 1 can't see!"
Phil shrugged impatiently. II
hate New York, Alicia. You know
that. It's so cold and unfriendly.
All anyone seems to care about is
having a good time. Not one Of
my so-called friends came to see
me when I was sick. I'm tired Of
all of it,"
"Oh,nonsense! If you weren't so
frozen up yourself, you'd have a
good time instead Of moping in
this stuffy apartment. Why
you're good looking, Phil. Any of
the girls in my set would he glad
to go out with you"
He frowned his annoyance. "I'm
leaving day after tomorrow,
Alicia" he said with finality.
She laughed harshly. "Well I
guess it's your funeral. Where is
this town-Red Lodge, isn't it
that you mentioned?"
"In Montana" he answered
briefly. It's the beginning of the
Cooke City Highway, the new en-
trance to the Yellowstone Park"
Alicia nodded absently. Perhaps
the trip would do him good-he
was looking terribly pale after his
recent illness. Her voice softened
as she said, "I'm off, Phil-big
dinner party tonight. Have good
time, darling. Drop me. line
when you get there" She kissed
him lightly and left.
Phil sighed. II wish father had
lived-she would be different if he
were here to take care of her." he
murmured aloud. Mr.. Blair had
died when Phil was twelve. Gym
thia Blair had married again and
now spent all her time touring
Europe with her second husband.
She had changed Alicia. AS for
himself, the memory of his father
was to clear in his mind and he
had patterned his life accordingly.
Graduating from college, he had
gotten a job in a small but up-to-
date garage. Jobs were scarce,
though, and he found his position
filled after his two months seige.
It had taken most of his savings
to pay the doctor and he intended
to use the rest for, trip to Mon
tana, hoping to rid himself of his
growing restlessness. Perhaps he
was fool but he was going any
way. Arousing himself, he began
to pack hurriedly.
Several days later, stepping off
the train at Red Lodge, he viewed
his surroundings with interest. It
was the third of July but already |
the town was decked in holiday |
garb. The streets were alive with
cowboys, cowgirls, and Indians. :.
whats up?" he asked of the con-
iuctor.
"First day of the rodeo." Then
he explained. "The Fourth of July
