Commodity Prices
During the first six months Of
the year commodity prices held
up. l expect them to hold at around
current levels for the time being.
Buyers should continue to keep
moderately protected. Price som
trolls have helped all. Food require
ments will continue heavy, but we
shall have the largest crops in our
history. Hence, food supplies will
remain ample; out will not be ex-
cessive.
Both hard and soft goods will
continue scarce until we can revert
to production for civilian require
ments. Retail prices after the War
may average Is per cent or more
above prewar prices. Certainly,
when new automobiles are avail.
able, they will be priced higher
tEan preWar levels. Building cosE
will also be up sharply.
We are now definitely in the
transition period, from war to
peace. Hitler will probably collapse
sometime between November 7,
1914 and March 7, 1915. The COM

adjustments in business and in liv-

COUNTY TO PAY
ON FERRY BONDS

The last chapter in the story OF
the old ferry system that for years
was the means of transportation
for people and goods across the
Cape Fear river will be written
this month, when County Auditor
j. A. Orrell pays off the outstand-
ing issue of the county's $4,000
terry bonds.
Orrell revealed yesterday that
the payment would amount to $780,
900 for bonds and 81, 250 in in
terest.
In commenting on the matter,
Mr.. Orrell told something OF his
memories of the ferry boat days;
when I came with the county,
people travelling in vehicles from
one side of the river came over
to the other side on a small flat
lowed by gasoline motor launch,
and in the earliest days, passen-
gels were carried over in a row.
boat, sculled with oars.
Early in 1917, New Hanover
and Brunswick counties bought the
ferry franchise at a ratio of two.
thirds for this county and one-third
for Brunswick. The equipment
was purchased from the Bruins.
wick Bridge and Ferry company,
owned principally by the late D.
L. Gore. The ferry was operated
BY Capt. o. A. Durant. who died
orly short while ago.
The ferry Coat. John Knox,
which crossed the river, was built
in Morehead City, was diesel pro-
palled, and was named for the
chairman of the Brunswick county
board, who was also made a men,
Der of the commission responsible
ter oper4 ion of the system. An
other ferry, the Menantic, former
ly used on the Hudson river in
New York was bought by the COM
pensioners. The ferries were oper-
ated for several years after the
new bridges were opened.
The bonds issued Dy the county
were for funds used in improving
reads between the Cape Fear riv-
ers and the highways, and for the
pun chase of the boats.
Our handsome new bridge was
opened in December, 1929, a n d
was declared toll free in 1882.
North Carolina financed the con-
struction and got back part of its
expenditures from the tolls. The
legislature of 1927 ordered tn e
.nuchly needed bridge to be built.
There was a great deal of con.
tcoversy in the county over plans
for the bridge construction. Many
people thought it should span the
Cape Fear at point where only
one bridge would be required
probably in the area near the Gus.
tomshouse. Bu- advocates of the
single-bridge plan were defeated
and the two structures we're erect
ed, one over the Cape Fear ano
the other over the Northeast river

4AASS4 G1SCA FAt4S0s
During the past six months stock,
market averages of 30 industrials
and 20 rails have risen from 1904
III January to $3.50 in June. This
is rise of ~ per cent. Ali things
considered, the market las acted
well during the first half of the
year. Our taxes on capital gains
and the double taxation on corpor-
ate dividends continue 10 be dis
tinct drawbacks. London investors
have no capital gains tax to con-
tend with. Hence, the prices of
English stocks are out-pacing U.
S securities.
I have been bullish on stocks
during the past six months and I
now continue so. The coming third
quarter is especially apt to show
q rise in view Of the Presidential
Campaign. It may seem odd for
me to forecast a decline in the
volume Of business and at the
same time to expect a rise in
security prices; but the relief
which investors are experiencing
over the Wars progress together
with the constructive oratory of
Dewey, Bricker and other Repub-
lcans is being reflected in the
stock market.
Wages
In spite of controls, wages have
risen a little mere during the past
SIX months. Union leaders have
worked hard for pay increases and
will continue to do so in order to
hold their own jobs. However, the
heyday of the industrial worker is
rapidly passing. Production cut
backs are resulting in the laying
eff of thousands of workers., This
has gone relatively unnoticed as
such layoffs have occurred in wide
ly separated geographical areas.
Too many wage workers have
not saved fair proportion Of their
wartime earnings. They are bound
later to feel the economic effects
thereof. Many of the latter will
lose their jobs between now and
the end of the War. They will find
| it hard to get new ones. I antici-
pate that the average demobilized
service man will not only find his
old job waiting but if he wishes he
will be financially able to enter
business on his own account. When
rehabilitation comes, soldiers and
sailors may be in better financial
shape than are the wage workers
who remained home.
Retail Trade
| Retail trade has steadily gone
ahead during the first six months
of the year. Wartime wages have
been the deciding factor in spite
Of the scarcity. Of goods, price con-
trolls and luxury taxes. Merchants
have done a wonderful job in keep
ing their shelves stocked to the
extent that they have. More goods
will become available as we enter
the third quarter, but both the
volume of retail business and the
value of goods sold may <cline
10 somewhat lower levels. am
not sure about this.
With retail trade at an all-time
peak, but with a general drop ex-
pected in employment; with high
er costs and lower profit margins
and with a generally more cautious
spending tendency, reaction in
the retail field is possible. Despite
this, I continue bullish on we'll

Formal Notice

A meeting Of the city finance
board will be held tomorrow after
noon at which time the appearance
Of an official Of the police depart
ment Is expected to discuss the need
for q transfer Of funds for main
tenance and repair Of patrol cars.
It was revealed at the last board
| meeting that the 1914 budget appro-
priation for this latter item lin the
amount Of 5000 has been fully
expended. Criticism Of this deple-
ton Of funds was given by board
members but was met with coun-
ter criticism by city budget director
r. E. Olsen who cited the fact that
the board in drawing UP the budget
last fall cut the departments re-
quest on this item from $500 Ia
5000, although $4,000 had been
expended In 1912 for the same pur-
poses.
Mr.. Olsen pointed out that the
department had requested less be-
cause they were Of the belief that
they would receive new patrol cars
this year which would have elm
mated the need for much repair
However, the department authori-
ties have been informed that nc
new patrol cars can be obtained thus
necessitatins major repairs on the
present equipment to maintain
standards.
Just who will appear before the
board tomorrow 1t Is not known to-
day but 1t Is believed that 1t will
be either Superintendent Daniel J.
