Wall Streeters Divided.

How the defeat in the House Of the
administrators lend-spend bill and
the $500 900 900 housing legislation
would affect business was debated
in Wall Street. Some said improve
ment in business confidence on the
belief political currents were moving
in favor Of private enterprise would
more than offset whatever curtail-
ment may result in Federal spending
Others pointed out record peace
time appropriations prior to the re-
volt against the administration
would operate to keep Federal spend
ing over the next year or so at high
levels.
Utility shares led a mild upswing
in the stock market on news of the
House defeat of the lend-spend bill.
A number of stocks, including such
leaders as Du Pont and American
Can, advanced to the highest prices
quoted this year But the list gen.
orally continued to mark time with

By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Aug. 5.-Lowest Au-
gust prices for refrigerator eggs in
SIX years were reached yesterday
on the Chicago Mercantile Ex-
change when the October contract
touched a new seasonal low of 1920
cents under further active liquida-
tion and stop-loss selling. A mod
est recovery came at the close. The
hnal price was 1925 cents.
Observers attributed the persist
ent liquidation to the failure of
cash prices to show signs of sea-
sonal improvement and to nervous
ness over fall production possibili-
ties.
November butter also continued
on the down grade and clossd with
loss of 20 points at 1910 cents.

Rising Spending Tide
Is Recorded by
Business Gauges
Optimism Is Growing
In Steel Industry
And Other Lines
BY FREDERICK GARDNER,
Associate Press Financial Writer,

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-Business
gauges this week recorded a rising
spending tide on Main street and
Wall Street. contrary to the last
minute economy wave in Congress.
Reports from steel and other in
dustries said optimism was growing.
In Washington Acting Secretary Of
the Treasury John W. Hanes, a for
mer Wall Street broker, said 1t
looked as II the country might be
on the "eve Of real forward move
ment."
Generating better feeling in imam
cial circles were such samples from
midsummer trade news as these:
l. Electric power consumption fig-
ures for the week ended July 20,
the second highest in history of the
industry.
2. American Telephones July
gain Of 11,200 stations. contrasted
with a loss Of 6,700 in the same
month last year.
3. The largest number Of blast
furnaces in action August l since
November, 1887.
4. July iron ore shipments on
Great Lakes up 90 per cent over
1898 month to the highest since Oc-
tober, 1887.
5. July copper sales to domestic
consumers the largest on record in
revival Of forward buying after
months of hand-to-mouth order
ing.
Steel Slows Production.
Following steep climb in July,
raising the operating rate above
80 per cent Of capacity for the first
time this year, the steel industry
slowed production schedules a bit.
Iron Age said the General Motors
tool and die strike-now ended-by
delaying work on new automobile
models, has prevented a higher op-
Grating rate for steel"
Only 2s,25O cars came OF the mo-
tor industrys assembly lines, ac-
cording to trade estimates, compared
with 40,595 the previous week, due
to the shift to 1910 cars. Producers
hastened preparations for new cars
to take advantage of an improving
retail market.
The slackening of operations in
steel and automobiles, regarded as
temporary, largely accounted for a
slower rise in the Associated Press
weekly index Of industrial activity
1t worked out at 80 28, compared with
926 the previous week and 729 a
year ago.
The index. with component groups
based on latest figures, calculated on

stored in lakes and ponds all
over New England, that when
milled it will fill $4,000 flat
cars. The lumber disposed of is
sufficient to build 125,000 homes
of five rooms each. About $50
million board feet of the devas-
tated lumber has been milled;
and operations are going on at a
rate exceeding four million board
feet per month.
All over the six New England
States, the bright yellow of fresh

CLEANS from clearings where it is
stacked; and vast heaps of saw
dust raise their golden crowns to
the skies of swift-approaching
winter as the loggers and mill
men dig in to the temporary
lumber camps.
Herman /. Hymans of Detroit,
a lumber wholesaler, devised the
plan of a cooperative organiza-
ton to handle New England's
lumber wealth blasted low in the
unprecedented hurricane of IA
months ago. Hymans was anxious
to buy one hundred million board
feet, but felt such a purchase
would rip the lumber market in
to shreds for the simple reason
that the estimated remaining five
hundred million board feet faced
a fate which could not be de-
termined.
Cooperative Plan Develops
AS a result of Hymans' plan
ming, the cooperative project was
laid before a group of interested
lumber wholesalers. That the
association should not enter the
monopoly class the Federal Gov
eminent required no less than
30 persons must be included in
the wholesalers buying and dis
tributing group. 1t was incorp-
Grated under Delaware laws, with
offices in New York, and other
offices likely to be opened in
Boston, which is nearer the scene
of operations.
No officers have been elected
at the present moment, but one
of them will be Timber Salvage
Administration member.
1t is stated that the $24,per-
thousand price which has been
agreed on may be readjusted an
nually. That price was determin-
ed after averaging salvage costs
and overhead throughout the
stricken area. Washington has
asked to buy hurricane lumber
