Wholesale Commodity
Index Turns Upward

Rising for the first time in six
weeks, the wholesale commodity
price index compiled by the National
Fertilizer Association registered a
slight advance last week. This in
deX in the week ended August 10
was 7O5. compared with 703 in the
preceding week. A month ago it was
71.2, a year ago 729 and two years
ago 87.2, based on the 1868 aver
age as 100.
A slight rise in the all-commodity
index was due mainly to higher quo
tatioils for grains and livestock.
With 10 items in the group declin-
ing and 6 advancing, the food price
average fell to the lowest level
recorded since July, 1884. Farm
product prices were generally higher
last week, with the prices of grains.
wool and livestock all moving upward
Although increases were registered
In certain cotton fabrics, wool, bur-
lap, jute and silk, the textile average
remained unchanged, due primarily
to drop in the price of raw cotton
The building material index was up
slightly, with an advance in the price
Ct lumber offsetting a decline in lin
seed oil. Fractional increases were
also registered by the indexes repre-
senting the prices of metals, fertil-
lzers and farm machinery.

Silver Import Price
Hits 374 Gents
AtNew York
Further Rise Gives
London Market First
Call on Supplies
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-The price
OF imported silver was jumped ~
cents today to 3734 cents an ounce.
The advance, following q further
mark-up in the London market,
widened the spread over the United
States Treasury's offer of IS cents
for foreign-mined silver and gave
the London market first call on
available supplies.
The Treasury, huge buyer Of
silver in world markets from 1884
on, for several weeks has taken
a back seat while London dealers
raised their bids over the American
quotation to attract offerings.
In metal circles here, it was sur
missed the European crisis had ag-
gravated tight" situation in the
spot silver market. Hoarding of
metal on possibility of war, it was
suggested, brought on more BUYERS
to compete with spectators who
have been trying to cover short
positions taken when the market
late in the spring was confused
over the outlook for continuation
OF United States Government buy
ing.
Supplies for immediate delivery,
it was said, have been meager
compared with the demand. Holders
have been inclined to wait on the
chance the squeeze" of shorts
might send the price still higher.
The rise apparently gave Mexico
and other foreign producers oppor-
tunlty to divert sales from the
United States to London,

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
LONDON, Aug. 22-The stunning
news Of an imminent German
Soviet non-aggression pact today
caused the worst slump in the Lon
don markets since the "war scare"
crisis last September.
British government securities led
an all-around marking down of
quotations ranging from l to 3
points Immediately after the stock
exchange opening
The three and one-half per cent

Of the gilt-edged securities list and
comparable with the United States
Liberty Loan--touched a record low
at the start of bushes at 81, an
overnight drop of 27s.
German and Austrian bonds and
Japanese loans eased of.
The absence of any marked SELL
ing pressure, however, caused
slight betterment of quotations after
dealers had time to recover from
the first shock of the Russo German
"handshake." The British war loan
recovered a point at 80, and there
was fractional improvement in other
issues.

the generally lower markets. They
have been supported recently by
heavy German purchases.
Rubber was off a shade around

In foreign exchange dealings there
was increased selling of the British
pound, but the stabilization fund
again held the rate around S4.68ls.
The control has intervened freQuent-
ly of late to keep the rate "pegged."
The premium of dollar exchange
deliverable in three months was un-
changed between 23-16 and 25-16
cents.
The Netherlands guilder was no
ticeably weak. The guilder was
quoted at 8.75la to the pound, COM
pared with the overnight close of
8.727s,b ut later settled around 8.7412.
In contrast with the market ac-
tlon here, the Berlin Bourse opened
strongly on the report of the i'm
