Chilean Poet Snubs
Bid of Berlin Group

SANTIAGO (JTA)-Pablo Ne
ruda, noted Chilean poet, has
bluntly rejected a request by the
German Chilean Institute to do
nate a number of his works to the
Ibero-American Institute in Ber-
lin to widen its collection Of Chill
can books.
In a letter replying to the In
stitute's written request, the poet
sarcastically suggested it ask the
Berlin Institute what had hap
pened to the books of Spinoza,
Heine, Thomas Mann" and other
writers in Germany. Neruda said
it would be against his ideals and
principles to donate his modest
works" to a country whose popula-
ton is not even permitted to read
the books Of its own literary mast
ers.

Wholesale Commodity
Average Goes Higher

The third consecutive advance
took place last week in the whole
sale commodity price index COM
piled by the National Fertilizer As
ISOLATION. This index in the week
ended August "a was 74.9 compared
with TAT in the preceding week, TAI
a month ago and I'll a year ago.
based on the 1926-1928 average as
100
Rising prices for farm products
and foodstuffs have been respon-
sible for the upturn in the all
commodity index, as the general
average for industrial commodities
the last three weeks has been at the
lowest level reached since early last
September.
The farm product average is now
higher than at any time since last
May, with the recent rise due to
advancing quotations for livestock
and poultry.
Higher prices for meats have been
largely responsible for the upturn
IN the index of food prices. The
only other group indexes to register
increases last week were those rep
resenting the prices of metals and
building materials.
Declines in the fuel and textile
indexes took them to the lowest
points reached this year. A new
low for the year was also reached
by the index of miscellaneous COM
moditieS.

Price Of British Money
Scars Near DeadIine
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug. 27-The price
of British paper money shot up to-
day as the deadline for importing
it into Great Britain neared.
Last week the pound note dropped
to around SO and earlier this year
was quoted as low as S2-S2 so, but
today its price was 1888.
London announcement last week
of the import ban, designed to pre-
vent Nazi use of large quantities of
British bank notes seized in Ger
man-occupied nations, caused an
abrupt decline here. A rally started
when the extension to August 81
was announced.
After 3 pm. today, most currency
dealers reported, they would refuse
to buy more sterling currency at the
present price. The amount of all
United States holdings of such
money to be redeemed must be
cabled to London by midnight. Time
difference between New York and
London five hours resulted in es-
Enlistment of the 8 o'clock dead
line.
No connection exists, it was pointed
out, between the price of the actual
currency and free or official sterling.
The last two are currently quoted
around S403 and are used exclusively
in check and cable transactions.

60 Stock Range Since 1927 ::
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-Further
war apprehension was the principal
excuse given by brokers today for
another dragging and uneven stock
market performance.
The list started as though it we're
going to slip cog or two. After
midday timid buying came in and,
at the close, fractional gains and
losses were about balanced.
A few rails, coppers and specialties
managed to take on a mild recovery
tlnge, but many leaders were a
shade under water when the final
gong sounded and numerous stocks
held at Mondays levels or never
even opened.
Dealings picked up at intervals
and transfers of around $3.50
shares compared with 1872, 900 YES
terday, which was the second snail
est turnover for a full session ia "a
years.
Wall Street was still hopeful for
the British but sentiment was con-
fused by persistent heavy Nazi
bombing raids on England, despite
retaliatory air raids of the R. A. F.
on Germany.
Individual shares were propped by
good business items, including earn
ings and dividends. Tax prob
lens, at the same time, clouded the
speculative scene.
Bid up now and then were Chrys-
Ter, Sears Roebuck. Marshall Field,
Sperry, Anaconda. Kennecott, North
American. Great Northern. Pullman,
Billiard, Armour, Wilson g. Co. and
Consolidated Edison.

War work is calling women to

according to D. G. Sullivan, Minis
ter of Supply. Although production
of wooden mills is II per cent above
the highest level attained in recent
years further expansion is planned.
The only limit will be the number
of workers who can be trained and
suitably absorbed in the industry.
Machines are being made in the
country's workshops to supplement
machinery supplies from overseas.

Factory Expansion
For Rest Of 1910
Is Indicated
Output in Lost HoIf
Expected to Extend
First HuIf's Coins

Special Dispatch tc The Star.
NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-The value
of factory output showed less of a
rise from May to June than the
quantity of goods produced, accord
ing to the Alexander Hamilton In
stitute.
This was due to a weakening Of
the price structure of manufactured
goods. The price index of such
goods, on the basis of 1925 as
100. declined from 824 in May to
Big in June, the lowest level since
August, 1899, the month prior to
the outbreak of the European war.
The prices of manufactured goods
in June were only slightly higher
than in that pre-war month, when
the index was SOL.
The index of the value of factory
output rose from 49, in May to
only 922 in June as the result of
lower prices offsetting the increase
in the volume of output. This was
not an unfavorable development,
however, insofar as the outlook is
concerned. 1t meant that over
expansion had not yet developed to
a sufficient extent to indicate
corrective movement in the near flu
ture. In fact, it left room for further
expansion.
While the index of the value of
factory output in June was 92.2,
or above the currently estimated
annual index of BIS for farm in
come, which is a measuring rod of
normal for the value of factory out
put, 1t is obvious that the excess
was too small to indicate an early
halt in the expansion of manufac-
turing activity.
The expansion of factory output
during the remainder of the year,
however, will depend on the volume
exceeding the normal amount. On
the basis of the current estimate of
farm income in 1910, and on the
assumption that the prices of manu-
featured goods will remain rela-
lively steady at the June level, the
normal index of factory output dur
ing the last six months of 1910 works
out at los. Consequently, if the
volume should not exceed normal
during the last six months, it would
mean a recession from the rate of
activity in June, when the index
was lib.
However, in view of the prcSpec-
tive stimulation which will be af-
forded by the war and by the de-
tense program of the United States,
the prospect is that actual output
this year will be considerably in ex-
cess of normal. The excess might
be as large as in 1887 In such
case, the index of factory output
during the last six months of 1910
would average 100, or we'll above the
index for. June. Under such cir
cumstances, the volume of factory
output during the last half of 1910
would not only be higher than in
the first half of the year, when the
index was 100, but it would be larger
than in the last half of 1899, when
the index was Ill.

Belgian Gold Reserves
Declared in u. ). and
Other Nations
Disappearance of Big
Supply Is Explained
At Meeting
By the Associated Press.

BERLIN, Aug. 81 (Via Padio).-
Gold reserves of the Belgian Ma
tional Bank now are on deposit in
the United States, England, France
and South Africa, the German radio
quoted the banks governor today
in a dispatch from Brussels.
The explanation was given at a
meeting of bank depositors in reply
to a demand of a national Flemish
Senator, who declared the 21.7Oo.-
100000 gold francs held before Bel
GUM became involved in the war
have almost completely disap-
peared."
tThe last quotation for Belgian
gold francs, suspended since the
German invasion, was 5 gold francs
for each belga, which had a value
OF 1856 cents, making the gold
francs value approximately 325
cents)
The gold was sent abroad by Or
der OF the former government of
Premier Hubert Pierlot," Gov. JAMS
son said. He added that the credits
IN the United States were frozen by
the embargo order of President
Roosevelt.
Since June Is the Belgian ex-
chequer has had no gold at its dis
poSal, JanSSon said. Up to that time
he disclosed the bank had handed
the former government more than
325 100000 gold francs and more
than 1,500,0O0,O0O gold francs to the
Bank of France for exchange in
Belgian bank notes.
Part of the latter sum might vet
be saved. although the hope is small
in view of credits probably advanced
to the former government by the
British and French exchequers,"
JanSson said.
