prices up % percent to new post
war high of 36 cents pound.
Supplies of natural rubber, how
ever, are fairly good and pro-
duction of synthetic rubber is
moving up. The announcement this
week of the reactivation of three
standby synthetic rubber pro-
Quoting plants with an annual
capacity of $4,000 tons should re-
assure individuals as to the suffi-
cheney of rubber supplies. Tire
production facilities are more than
adequate to meet consumer de-
mand. Many consumers will un-
doubtedly regret their recent hasty
tire purchases, since it is a well
known fact that rubber tires de-
teriorate considerably in quality
if they are improperly stored for
any length of. time.
In general, agricultural prices
were Sll1UuldlCu NY tiiC WoA iS"o.
Lard prices rose 9 percent in Gwo
weeks in sympathy with the ad-
vance of hogs. Demand for corn,
which is used principally as an
animal feed, rose 6 cents to $1.57
a bushel, the highest since October
194S. Wool prices also increased
5 percent to new postwar peak.
Sugar advanced is cents per
hundred pounds to $5.95 as con-
sumers and industrial users in
creased their demands. Sugar
supplies arample and sales are
controlled by the Department OF
Agriculture to stabilize prices. II
there were any danger of short
age, it could be eliminated very
quickly as considerable quantities
are available from Puerto Rico
and Cuba. Hearings are now being
conducted by the Department to
determine the size of next years
sugar import quotas. Undoubtedly
these will be raised il shortage
