COST OF living IS NOW
AT ALL.TIME HIGH MARK

WASHINGTON LP,-The cost of
living probably is at an all-time
high today. And it could go higher.
This was indicated by a series
of government reports which said:
l. Food prices went up three
tenths of 1 per cent in June-to
a point IA per cent higher than
just before the Korean War -
mainly because of grocery and
meat price increases.
2. The next overall cost-of-living
index due in about three weeks
is expected to show another climb
because rents are rising. The last
index on May Is was only one
tenth of point below the record.
3. Wholesale prices were un-
changed for the week ended July /,
indicating the decline during the
past few weeks is leveling off.
A staff report to the Senate
House Economic Committee the
day before said prices may climb
to an all-time peak in the next six
to II months-up ] to 3 per cent
due to increases in rents and SER
vices, a recovery in clothing prices,
and slight upturn in consumer
durable goods. The report said
food prices would not change much
unless crop prospects were altered.
However, the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, after making a special
food survey of eight key cities on
June Is, said food prices are climb
ing already.
1t said increases in egg, fruit,
vegetable, meat and fish prices
were mainly responsible for the
food rise between May 26 and
June Is. Egg prices jumped most
At per cent.
The food price index on June Is
was 231.6, using the 1853 aver
age as 100.
The cost-of-living index on May
Is stood at 189, one-tenth of a
point below the 1891 reached in
December and January.
The BIS wholesale index for all
commodities stood at 110.7, using
the 1947-49 average as 100. Gen.
orally higher wholesale prices
were reported for livestock, text
lies and fibers. Grains and natural
rubber were down.

Deer Moving To
South and West

Ohio's white-tailed deer are on
the march westward as well as
southwark according to reports
being received by Merrill Gilfillan,
deer project leader of the Ohio
Division of Wildlife, who points
out that during the past several
years deer have been seen in all
Ohio counties clear TO the Indiana
border.
Recent events that substantiate
the fact that the white-tails are
moving into the States best farm
ing territory are three deer kill
ed on the highways in Hancock
county, in OhioS cornbelt, since
the beginning of the year, and a
recent record of fawn being bad
ly injured during hay moving on
a Champaign county farm.
Ohio Wildlife officials are con-
cerned at the rate of westward
dispersal of the deer population,
pointing out that severe crop dam
age may result if deer become en-
trenched in the woodlots of west
ern Ohio. According to recent
findings, Ohio deer have a con-
siderably higher reproductive rate
in areas where high grade food
aboundS. The rate of increase in
the deer population is Therefore
proportionately higher in the bet
ter farming sections than it is in
the forest areas where deer feed
on sprout growth and acorns.
One of the basic policies of the
Ohio Wildlife Council with re-
spect to deer management is to
avoid the rapid build-up of deer
populations in the farming sections
not only to protect the farmers
crops and the interests of the
orchardists, but to avoid property
damage and danger to life and
limb on the highways, where deer
are often struck by motorists. The
average car repair bill after a deer
auto collision has been about S100.
On the basis OF. forest and brushy
cover which provide the ideal hab-
itat in Ohio, about As counties can
be classified as ideal deer range,
!
southern portions of the state. In
this ideal range, deer can be man.
aged for long time in the future
as a valuable wildlife resource,
but even there, deer herds must
be kept under rigid control to pro-
tect the farmers crops and the
lives of those who travel the high
ways, wildlife officials believe.
