Money in Circulation
Reaches 1911 Billion,
Ah-Time High in U. 5.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Price levels today are threat
ened by highly dangerous
pressures, responsible Govern
ment officials warn in a report
disclosing that money in circu-
lation in the United States
reached an all-time high of
SIS, $50, 100000 in October.
Commenting on the increase, which
was marked by the second success
sive monthly rise In the cost of
living, Price Administrator Chester
Bowles said:
In the past two months the cost
OF living index has gone up. The
rise was slight, but it stands as a
warning.
There are constant and increas-
ing pressures for higher prices. The
price line can be held only with the
full support Of every citizen.
Report Issued by Owl.
The report was issued last night
by the Office of War Information
on the basis of information from
the OPA, the Treasury Department.
the Labor Department and the Fed
eral Reserve Board.
In summary, the Owl said that
between September IS and Octo-
Der Is the Bureau of Labor Sta
tiStics cost of living index rose
from 1884 to 1914, chiefly as a
result of higher prices for eggs and
clothing"
1t added that the gains almost
completely cancelled the decreases
registered last summer but noted
that the cost of living index still
is below its wartime high of 1851
reached in May"
The Owl said that an estimated
amount above S35 900, 900 1000 ,after
payment of taxes and purchase OF
available goods and services still
exists.
Dangerous to Price Level.
Much of this money may have
been placed in Wa" Bonds, life in
surance and other forms of saw
ings,' said the Owl, but the all
time high for money in circulation
and other continuing pressures were
interpreted by responsible officials
as highly dangerous to the price
level"
Secretary Of the Treasury Morgen-
thau said that if those consumers
who mold the Nations surplus in
come try to spend it on consumer
goods the inevitable result will be
black markets, ruptured price cell
ines, substantial increases in the
cost of living followed by tremen-
dous pressure which will
set in motion further forces in the
spiral of infation."

EX- store Place
Now Model Farm

KITTANING, Pa.-UlP-A run.
down farming property purchased
during the depression as a storing
place for drill equipment has turned
out to be the center OF one OF the
finest Guernsey cattle herds In the
state Of Pennsylvania. b
The 19S-acre farm located near
New Bethlehem, was bought in 1929
by Robert L. Fleming, at that time
an expert drilling contractor, as a
place to store his drilling equipment
after drilling operations had almost
ceased.
Fleming began farming on a small
scale 10 provide employment for
one of his most valued employees,
who had been with him over a per-
iod OF years and who is now mana
ger OF the farm.
While still undecided about what
phases Of farming to develop, Elem.
ing was advised by L. Hetrick,
prominent Guernsey breeder, to
raise Guernsey cattle. Fleming pur-
chased the beginnings Of bis herd
at Wooster. o. Hetrick has been cat
tie herdsman on the farm for 10
years.
Jennings herd now consists OF
~ cows. young cattle, and calves
and the stock bull, and has received
many ribbons and trophies at pure
bred cattle exhibits.
About SIS gallons Of milk from
the farm are sold daily 70 a district
milk company. The herd IL housed
in modern, up.to-date barns. and
the farm possesses all kinds OF new
machinery TO produce good CROPS
} and plenty Of pasture.

Cling to Top Rum,
Beat Carver
by 20 to 10

3 The independents, battling II out
with Carver Center in the City
! League since the beginning Of the
season. have at last gained a hrm
hold on the top ruDg Of the latter
after beating Carvers last night
26-l9..
II was slated 10 be a blood
game" il any in the season may be
called such. for both teams, at
opening whistle, were stalking per-
feet records on the line.
The Independent team is com
posed OF all former Ypsilanti High
School players, and represent the
bulk OF the team that won the Re
gional title last year.
Scoring was fairly evenly divided
among individual members OF both
teams, with Harmon OF the hide
pendents and Anderson OF Caryer's
each scoring seven, and Palmer
and Hughes of Independents and
Bass Of Caryer'5 each getting six.
Ellis Freatman, Independents,
claimed high point honors for the
evening. with three buckets and
three free throws for nine mark
ers.
To date, the Independents remain
unbeaten, the only team with per
feet record in the league. and un-
less something quite unforeseen oc-
ours will finish the season on the
top of the league.
In the other game OF the eve
ming CYO downed the Vikings with
last minute scoring spree which
netted II points The final score
was CYO 80, Vikings IS.
