WHOLESALE INDEX .
ADVANCES AGAIN
Fertilizer Association Finds
Average at TAT, Against
4.2 Week Ago.

The wholesale price level advanced
last week, according to the commodity
index compiled by the National Fer
tilizer Association. This index In the
week ended July 8 rose to TAT per
cent Of the l926-1928 average from
74.2 In the preceding week. A month
ago the index stood 1T 74.4 and 4
year ago at 88.6.
Higher prices for farm products and
foods were largely responsible for last
weeks upturn in the all-commodity
index. The average for all commod-
tiles except farm products and foods
reached new low for the current re-
cession. The advance In the index
Of food prices took it to the highest
point recorded since last January.
A continuation of the rise In live
stock prices combined with higher
quotations for cotton and eggs caused
an upturn in the farm product group
index. A decline in the price Of pc.
troleum was more than offset by IN
creases in anthracite coal prices. with
the result that the fuel price average
advanced during the week.
Textiles were generally higher, with
all fibers as well as cotton and wooden
goods registering increases.
Copper, tin, lead. zinc, brass prod
ucts, and steel scrap rose In price,
but the effect Of these increases was
much more than Offset in the metal
group by the decline in steel, iron and

A slight decrease was noted in the

Management today needs CO.
operation of their Government
and their workers to solve this
problem, and that can't be ac-
complished by a wage cut af-

PEACE OUTLOOK
GLOOMY, SAYS.
BRITISH WRITER
AuthoresS in u. S. to
Lecture on CzeChS

A brisk English woman, who has
compressed into a new book the
explosive background of the Czech
German crisis, summed up her
viewpoint on the future in one
sober sentence.
"The outlook for peace is not
much better now than it was be-
FORE" declared Miss Elizabeth
WiSkemann Of London, who is
now visiting in Washington be-
tween stops on a lecture tour.
"Of course Germany Is in
better position to make war. And
I'm not convinced that the Ger.
mans won't find it in their inter.
est to make war"
READ BY RUMCIMAN
AS she spoke she was surveying
Washington's skyline from the
roof of the Dodge Hotel. Under
her arm she carried her book,
"Czechs and Germans" published
only a few months ago by the Ok
ford University Press.
The Importance Of that book
was Spotlighted in a photograph
which she possesses, showing Lord
Runciman reading it on the train
On his way to Prague.
I'm May, after the mobiliZa-
ton, I drove around the Czech
German frontier and talked to
various persons. And at that
time it was unthinkabl that
Czechoslovakia wouldn't fight,
even If the country had to do 1t
alone, rather than give up the
territory that was demanded"
Miss Wiskemann declared.
DOZEN LECTURES IN U. g..
She spent most Of 1897 in
CzechoSlovakia, gathering material
for the book. Now she is in Amer
lea to lecture on the question and
other aspects Of modern European
history. Having given five lee
lures in Canada, she will now de-
liver more than a dozen in the
United States.
Hitler has virtually gobbled
up Czechoslovakia now. And
with Hitler having made him.
self dominant in Eastern
Europe, the outlook is not
placid" she said.
Miss WiSkemann writes and
lectures and teaches in England.
She is visiting the United States
for the first time.
The Washington times., 1938-10-13

. Huge Russian military precau-
/ tionS have been source of in
creaSing comment in Baltic and
Central European countries for
the last several months, and it is
know that the Soviets have been
creating a formidable defense syS-
tenn behind a 50-mile deep mo
mans land" stretching virtually
from the Baltic to the Black Sea.
STRONG DEFENSES
To construct this elaborate de-
fense line, Soviet authorities have
burned thousands of acres of for
est and bush lands, particularly in
the Baltic zone, and have removed
thousands of villagers to the in
terror from the border zones.
Extent and nature of the fortifi-
cations is a matter of speculation,
but it is generally believed they
conSit of strategically placed small
forts, most of which are equipped
with machine guns, with heavier
defenseS situated some miles be
hind.
One report states that a rep
Iica of the famous French Mag
mot line" has been constructed to
defend certain vulnerable sections.
VISITED BY STAIN
This line is said to have been
visited recently by Dictator Josef
Stain and high officials of the
red army, who expressed Satisfac-
ton regarding its ability to resist
an invasion.
Soviet Russia has no common
borders with Germany, but it is
believed in London that the pre-
cautions have been taken in antici-
patton of possible major German
drive to the east" that might
bring the expanding Reich into
immediate contact with the U. S.
S. r.
At present, the Soviet defenseS
are said to be strongest along the
border, adjoining Poland and Fin.
land.
