Livestock Markets
Follow Irregular
Course in Week
Steer Prices Uneven,
Hogs Recover, but
Lombs Slump

The tolloping repiew OF the
livestock market for the Week
ended August II Was prepared
for the Associated Press BY the
United States Department OF
Agriculture:
CHICAGO, Aug. 19.-Mixed price
movement featured the livestock
markets this week Medium weight
and heavy steers sold off 15-25c gen.
orally, while good and choice light
yearlings held to steady levels Hogs
made noticeable recovery from re-
cent low levels, while spring lambs
received one of the seasons most
severe price slashes. Top steers made
$1,000, yearlings $10.l5, hogs closed
at $6.40 down, while the late lamb
top rested at $3.50, after having sold
up to $S.l5 early in the week.
1t was distinctly a fed steer and
yearling run in which good and
choice grades predominated. and
buyers having numbers in their IA
vor tried diligently to enforce
sharply lower prices. But scarcity
of little cattle offset any bearish
ideas in that branch of the trade
and late sales reflected no import
ant price change. Meanwhile, the
rank and file of the steer crop.
comprising medium weights and
weightly bullocks, escaped with a
l5-25c downturn. Top of 5000 was
paid Monday and a few loads sold
later at Sl025. but there was little
here to sell above the $1,000 line. In
fact, it was a S900-9.65 market on
load after load OF all weights in
cluding 1900 Founders at 1925. Com
mon and medium grades were con-
spicuously scarce, it being emphat-
ically run of fed cattle. Cows
were scarce and canner and cutter
grades made a 15-25c advance which
was not received by the good and
choice quota. Several loads of light
heifers turned at S90O-965, a few
head to 50 S5, while grassy and grain
on grass offerings sold from $50
8.25. Few western grassers arrived
and there was also limited amount
of business in the stocker and feeder
division, mostly at prices ranging
downward from 5000 to $3.50 and
below.
Hog Prices Recover.
After having dipped last week to
new low levels dating back TO 1894,
hog prices turned upward early in
the week and closed at the high
point of the period.
Weights l80 lbs. down finished
steady to Csc higher, while heavy
butchers and sows gathered a 40
soc advance, top standing at $6 40
Thursday
Late sales of good and choice 18O-
270 lbs. Were mostly at S. 95-6 IS
with heavier butchers at S540-6 90.
Having been punished more Sc
verely than other hogs in the re-
cent decline. butchers and soWs
made corresponding recovery this
week
Spring Lambs Drop.
Spring lambs lost price ground
steadily throughout the week. closing
with top Of $3.50 after having es-
tablished peak of SO Is on Monday.
Most sales of native and western
spring lambs were over a spread of
So 25-9 Is, cumulative downturns
having uncovered a net loss of 60
75c during the week.

ness revival this week with another
sharp boost in operating schedules,
Rising hand in hand for weeks,
the Associated Press weekly index
OF industrial activity and the steel
production rate got back virtually to
the peaks registered last autumn,
The steel rate went to 62.1 per cent
OF capacity, up points from the
previous week, in what seemed to
some business observers a BROADEN
Ing OF improvement in the vital ma
chlne-making industries.
The advance in steel, partly in
preparation for the motor indus
trys start on production of 1910 cars,
more than offset a further decline in
assembly of automobiles. Auto out
put, trade estimates showed, was at
low ebb Tor the year as the industry
geared its plants for the new models.
Business managers planned for
the autumn months in face of an
other European crisis which many
feared would duplicate the prolonged
spell OF tension in financial centers
preceding the Munich pact last
September. Selling in security mar
kets, causing fall in stocks toward
the end of the week, was attributed
by brokers mainly to nervousness
over possible showdown on Poland.
Going contrary to the stock mar
ket, the Associated Press industrial
index was up for the fifth straight
week. 1t has advanced since mid
May from around 81 to "a. The
peak last autumn was 949.
The index. with component groups
based on latest figures available,
calculated on 1929-3O levels as 100,

Increased Activities Raise the
Quota for Vermilion Range
Council to $500.

The date for the Vermilion range
councils annual drive for funds has
been set for Monday through the follow
ing Saturday, according to Sigurd F.
Olson, chairman of the Boy Scout
finance committee. Plans for the cam
paign were completed at meeting held
last night.
This years quota has been set at
5000, Mr.. Olson states, $500 to be raised
by Ely and 500 by Tower-Soudan. The
Vermilion range council includes these
two communities.
This years quota is STA over last
years, Mr.. Olson said. The increase is
caused by increased activities within
the Headwaters area of which this
council is part, he stated.
The quota plan, he emphasized, is not
a tax or assessment, but is a cooperative
offer of a community in maintaining
an active, self-supporting pay your
share, pay as you go program of Scout
activity.
The expenses of continuing the Scout
movement in Ely, and Ely'S share OF
supporting the Vermilion range council
the Headwaters area and the national
organization come from the monies
raised, he pointed out.
The coming drive is being built around
the theme: Americas Answer to a
Confused World-the Boy Scout move
ment," Mr.. Olson said.

IMAGINARY COMPANIES

When he is about two and half
years DID, many child invents an i'm
aginary playmate who means lot to
him for the next few years. 1t used to
be supposed that only children who
were lonely who had no brothers and
sisters, needed to create some one to
play with; but recent studies show that
of children who do not have imaginary
playmates, only about half are only
children. Apparently the shadowy COM
panion, so real to the child as to seem
to him to be eating, talking, sitting in
a chair along side him, supplies a need
for some one to talk to, share with, and
confide in, even though there may be
actual companions present in the child's
life great part of the time.
Children usually pick out an mag
mary companion of the same sex as
themselves, and often refer to them as
my little brother" or my cousin" or
often, simply as "my friend" They
may enjoy this companionship for a
long, or short, time, but usually by the
time they are five or six, they realize
the make-believe nature of the relation
ship. A few children continue to rely
on such playmate until they are twelve
or so.
Sometimes the presence of this play
mate suggests that there is something
a bit unsatisfactory in a child's life,
that he is trying to make up for Thus
if child is not shown enough affection
by his parents, he may lavish on his
creation the demonstrative love that he
unconsciously wishes he were receiving
If he is a child whose older brothers
and sisters tend to dominate him too
much, his invented playmate may serve
as someone on whom he can vent his
thwarted desire to dominate. If he is
an only child, it is easy to see that a
make believe friend is better than none
at ALL
In many cases, though, the imaginary

tivities"
A poster display contrasting the man
ner in which the youth of many
European countries is being regimented
into intolerant war-minded followers of
Goddess governments with the teach
ings of the Boy Scout movement as it
is being carried on in America will be
put up in several business houses to
publicize Scout activities, Mr.. Olson
stated.
'The posters illustrate very effectively
the Importance of maintaining Scout
ideals in the youth of Ely and America"
he emphasized. at is the hope of the
finance committee that Ely will do its
share in contributing toward the sup
port of this movement" he said.

companion seems to be merely the re-
suit of the child's powerful imagination.
He makes up lions, and tigers, and In
dams, and bunny rabbits-why shouldn't
he imagine human beings? Most
children have many wishes that for one
reason or another cant be fulfilled.
What is more natural than to invent
a person who can have the adventures
and experiences that the child dreams
about?
There is only one situation in which
the imaginary playmate may be detri-
mental, and that is, when that COM
partnership is so satisfying as to prevent
child from making contacts with real
children A child may find it easier TO
get along with another child of his own
creation than with the real cildren in

Japan Warns All Powers Get Out China Ports

UNDATED, June 27 {P)-Pros poets grew that Britain and Jap, an might find a peaceful solu- tion for the l4-day deadlock at Tientsin which developed into 3 test of far-reaching importance of Japan's determination to re- strict or end altogether the spec ial privileges for Western pow CTS in China and other oriental fronts.
 A Japanese naval official at Shanghai announced offensives against two or more Chinese ports including FoochoW and WenchoW, in drive to seal up the coast. Japan warned the Unit ed States and other powers to remove their vessels and declar- ed the ports would be closed to foreign shipping.
