NEW YORK, April 30-1ndustrial
activity slumped sharply this week,
suffering one of the broadest Setbacks
of the year.
Measured by the Associated Press
seasonally adjusted index, based on
latest available statistics, the in
dustrial tempo dropped to 668 per cent
of the 1929-30 average. This was
the lowest level since December, 1884,
and compared with 683 a week ago
and 1915 last year.
Every component of the index de-
clined during the week, automobile
assemblies and electric power output
falling to new low levels for the cur
rent recession.
Largely responsible for the curtail-
ment of motor car production were
strike tie-ups in General Motors
plants. Other principal producers cut
assemblies only slightly.
Total freight loadings were sharply
lower after seasonal adjustment. This
resulted mainly from smaller coal
movement, although miscellaneous
loadings-the biggest industrial CLASH
f1cation-also dipped moderately.
Steel operations were shaded for
the second week, demand from pri-
mary consumers continuing at low
ebb. Electric power consumption re-
f1ected unusually favorable weather
conditions throughout the country.

justed components based on latest
data and with 1929-3O as 100, COM

CHICAGO, April 29.-Strictly good,
choice, and prime steers sold strong
to Is cents higher after suffering
downturns early in the week. Year
lings Of comparable grade finished
steady but common to medium grade
steers closed weak to Is cents lower,
mostly rs cents OF. Many Of the
latter closed rs to so cents under the
high time Of the week, and thus price
spreads on cattle generally were
broadened, while hogs dropped to
new low levels for the year, and lambs
gained price ground despite an in
crease in numbers. both at Chicago
and outside points.
Hogs OF Sharply.
Hogs scaling under 220 pounds
again came in for the big end of the
break. Losses of rs to 40 cents were
recorded on such material, while
heavier butchers lost Is to rs cents,
and packing sows closed only to 10
cents lower. Shipping demand was
comparatively narrow but showed
some expansion late when prices To-
cally came more nearly in line with
those paid at outside points. The
late top stood at $8.35, but on the
low day the best hogs sold at Chi
cago stopped at $3.50, most weights
under 300 pounds selling at SO and
better which means that current
prices are among the narrowest in
recent trade history.
Lamb Top Again 50.
The advance on slaughter lambs,
which amounted to mostly 40 to so
cents with the top 60 cents up, carried
the top on choice Colorado-fed Of
ferings at Chicago back to the SO
mark for the first time since April g.
The first California spring lambs
of the season were also a feature of
the trade, 13 decks of choice SO to
81 pound springers selling on packer
account at $940. with one deck to
small killers at $3.50.
Top clipped lambs reached SO and
the bulk sold at $7.25 and $7.85.
Fed Steers at SlO.65.
The weeks top on fed steers was
$l0.65 and the next highest price
Sl050, both being paid for medium
weight offerings. Comparatively big
weight bullocks. 1,535-pound aver
ages, scored sl035. and while there
was sprinkling of choice medium
weight and weighty steers at $40
and Sl025 the bulk of the steer and
yearling crop cleared around s7.75 to
$3.50, with finished yearlings and
lightweight steers comparatively scarce
Best lightweight steers brought slO.40
while 1855 took best offerings OF
typical yearling type. Heifers sold up
to s9.l0. with noshing strictly choice
available. Replacement cattle. excep-
tionally scarce. changed hands at
steady prices.

CHICAGO GRAIN
By the Asscciated Press.


CHICAGO, April 3O.-Although
wheat prices dipped fractions today
to new lows for the year and in some
cases to the lowest in four years, buy
ing power that appeared on the break
rallied the market. The result as
that prices moved within a very mar
row range and at the close showed
small net gains.
Contracts on which new wheat can
be delivered were stronger than May
wheat, which was sold by owners who
do not want delivery Of old grain
during the coming month. Two pri-
vate crop forecasts suggested increased
abandonment in Texas and Oklahoma,
which helped to rally prices after
midsession.
Wheat closed 1s-5s higher compared
with yesterdays finish. May, 79A-3s;
July. 79-791s, and corn was 1s-R
lower, May, 5s-581s; July, $685..
