Some ncople have gained the
impression the Government lis
closing down on new home
building because of the shortage
in defense metals. This is not
true. The Government is anxi-
GUS that new homes be built
in order to provide work
throughout the nation. There
will probably be unemployment
in some trades because OF need
to curtail use OF certain metals
needed in defense. Therefore
the Government wants as much
building as possible to continue
In order to help take up the
labor slack. And homes are
needed everywhere.

Hahn said. They make little If
any attempt to justify present cot
ton goods prices except to attribute
the situation to the law of supply
and demand, working through their
own confessedly cumbersome mar
keting system. They feel they are
not allowed under the present Fed
eral law to discuss prices with a
view of keeping them down and they
express a general attitude OF help
iessness to deal with the situation" "
The demand for goods admit
tedly has been great. Buyers have
feared the effect of shortages and
have insisted on buying into the
long future Prices are determined
by the general market reaction to
buying, and they are forced to sit
helplessly and accept prices which
they know are too high"

Wholesale Commodity
AVERAGE Up Further

The general level of wholesale
commodity prices was somewhat
higher last week, according to the
index compiled by the National
Fertilizer Association.
This index in the week ended May
81 advanced to 1867 from 1858 in
the preceding week. 1t was 104.4 a
month ago and 982 a year ago,
based on the l935-l939 average as
100. This latest advance took the
sll-commodity index to the highest
level recorded since mid-Octooer,
1887.
A series of three consecutive week
" advances has caused an increase
of 2.5 per cent in the sll-commodlty
index. This advance was due TO
further upturns in foodstuffs. agri-
cultural commodity prices and tex
tiles.
The effect on the food price index
of declines in the prices OF oranges,
pork. cocoa and lard was more than
counterbalanced by advancing quo
tations for l8 other items Included
In the group; cottonseed oil regis
tered a marked increase.
A decided upturn in the farm
product index resulted from higher
prices for cotton, grains and live
stock. The textile average con-
tinued its upward movement, having
risen l2.1 per cent since the first OF
the year.
Fractional increases were recorded
bv the indexes representing the
prices of building materials, fertll-
tzer materials and miscellaneous
commodities. The farm machinery
and mixed fertilizer averages we're
the only ones to decline.
