ROYLE. | Special Dispatch to The Stas NEW YORK, June 20.—The favora- ble factors in the week’'s news un- | doubtedly outweighed unfavorable re- ports, but while the bright spots in the business sky grew brighter, the ciouds over some few industries showed no Isigns of lifting. Perhaps the most | gratifying fact made evident was that | employment is thoroughly satisfactory |in the country as a whole. It has |droppea slightly from Spring levels, |but the level is still above that of the corresponding period of last year. Plenty of Farm Labor. This means steady maintenance of purchasing power on the part of the bulk of the population. The call for | farm labor has increased and the har- | vest demand has absorbed large num- | bers of idle workers. In some States, however, the word has gone out advis: ing college students who.put in the Summer In_harvest fields not to leave | home this vear, as the ranks are full. One of the best barometers of busi- | ness is the automobile manufacturing since it reflects purchasing power in a decided way. Detroit, cen- ter of the industry, telegraphs today |that latest reports show an increase of 1,400 workers in the past week, | bringing the total to 239,855, a new high record for this vear. This repre- sents a gain of 42,521 since January 1. Reports for the last month from 365 cities show building gains as compared with the corresponding period of 1924. Building Materials Higher. These figures are substantiated by the fact that building materials ad- vanced in price. Brick shot up $1 a thousand in this city. Linseed oil ad- |vanced 2 cents a gallon. Permits is- sued for construction jobs in 25 of the principal cities in the last month totaled $245,734,008 and the valué of contracts let in the last week for the |country reached $51,554,000. Lumber | production shipments and sales were |far ahead of this time last year. Structural steel awards have been | of fair volume, but the Homestead | and Duquesne steel plants have slowed | down. Capacity operation of sheet and tin plate mills is reported from Penn- sylvania points, and the steel hoop plants are running full time. The in- dustry as a whole is working slightly under 70 per cent of capacity, but few mill_executives expect the regular seasonal drop to go much further. Coal Industry Still Down. The soft coal industry continues in the depths, but, as was predicted in these columns, operators are turning to mergers and consolidations ta_cut costs and improve net returns. One such merger has been consummated in the last few days. The anthracite mines are speeding up slightly in preparation for any check, to .prodyc- tion through faflure to arrive at.a néw wage agreement in August. The textile industry in Neéw Eng- land also continues to feel depression. The present price of cotton is a slightly encouraging factor, but the mills in general are far from capacity operation. The woolen manufacturers are in slightly better case. Confidence in the future demand for wool and woolen cloth is in evidence, as is shown by reports received in textile circles that Salt Lake City banks are financing wool growers to enable them to hold for higher prices. It is likely that growers will not accept. at this time offers less than 38 to 39 cents a pound, and some are determined to hold out for 45. Silkk Makers Prosper. Silk manutacturers are riding high on the wave of prosperity with a keen demand for their products in evi- dence. The artificfal silk producers are straining every effort to keep up with new business. The shoe indus- try is beginning to feel the Summer slump, but the laying in of stocks in anticipation for the school. children demand of next Fall will begin shortly. The report of the Credit Clearing House shows that: purchases by the public in the last week advanced 2.8 per cent. The chain stores and mail order houses are enjoying excellent business. The movement of Winter wheat now is well under way and be- ing handled adequately by the car- riers. Fruit Crops Selling Well. Fruft crops are being advarnta- geously marketed and car loadings ate high. Canneries are active and the preserving demand in some States has sufficed to raise the price of sugar slightly. The decision upholding the lease. to Harry F. Sinclair of the oil lands in Teapot Dome is calculated to bring | improved sentiment among producers in that field, since it tends to allay uncertainty as to the program foi development of that section. : (Copyright. 1825.)

NEW ORLEANS, June 20.—Rains in the sugar and rice districts have supplied those crops with much need- ed moisture, and the outlook for them is the best in_years.

NEW YORK, June 20.—The cotton market opened at a decline of 4 to 7 points today, October contracts selling off to 23.07, under continuation of realizing reported for yesterday's re- action. Selling was promoted by relatively sasy cables and private forecasts for undettled and showery weather in the South, but offerings were much light- er after Friday's liquidation, and the market soon turned firmer on more encouraging reports from theé ecotton Eoods market and early weather ad vices indicating little rain in the Southwest.

While the average price of domestic bonds is now higher than at any time since 1917, foreign obligations, gov- ernments and industrial, are below the high point.of 1922. The reason for this lagging behind of the foreign list is, of course, the doubt as to the for- eign financial situation which has pre: vailed for. the past two vears, and especially the state of “affairs in France. Foreign bonds are far more sensitive in market price to variations in .opinion as to fipanecial progress abroad than they are to changes in ‘money rates. So is comes about that the in- "Xo!;or Car Campany Reports on Three. Months’ Business. NEW_YORK, June 20 (#).-~Hudson Motor Car Co. more than doubled its income in the three months ended May 31, compared with the seme peri- od ‘last year, the total of $5,968,783 afte depreciation, Federal taxes and charges, contrasting with $2,699,610." This is equal to $4.52 a share, against $2.90 in the preceding quarter and $2.04 a_share in the same quarter of 1924. Net for the six months ended May 31 was $9,795,715, equal to .$7.42 a share, against $3.03 a share a .year ago. MERGER PLAN APPROVED. NEW YORK, June 20 (#).—Stock: holders of the American Gas Co. ves- terday gave formal approval of the merger With the United Gas Improve- ment Co. Stockholders of United Gas will take action on the proposal at a ecial meeting, pext Friday, EEN vestor can obtain as high a return on his ‘money in ‘a foreign Security today as he could in 1922, and the same can- not be sald of domestic securities. The natural inference from this fact would be that the risk in foreign in- vestment as a whole has increased, otherwise the average price of foreign nds would have gone up with that domestic descriptions. It is very doubtful if this is the correct inference. Probably the ex- planation is that it is a_ fallgcy to put al] foreign bonds into one class just because they are foreign, and that is what the average American investor is inclined to d‘;uhb; matter g(‘f:ftd t progress n e to f;:‘mstor&llon of normmondllibnl in many European countries, A notable instance is the return of Great Britain to the gold standard.

The Plerce Arrow issues were whirled upward to a new high level for the year in re. flection of increased sales and the improved financial condition of, the company. Heavy accnmulation also was noted in Hupp, Moon, Hudson and White Motors. American Tele- phone, Federal Light and Traction, American Foreign Power and Elec: tric Power and Light certificates also broke through to mew high levels for the vear. BUTTER PRICES LOWER. All Heavy Receipts Weaken Wholesale Markets. CHICAGO, June 20 (#).—The un- derlying nervousness which has pre- vailed on all the butter markets for the past few weeks came to the sur- face during the week and resulted in | sharp declines at all the markets. At the lower prices trading was far from being satisfactory as buyers were op- | erating cautiously and showing little interest beyond immediate needs. Ordinarily, during the month of | June, there is a fairly active demand far this month this demand has been rather limited. Receivers of butter contracts on the basis of the daily quo- tations were forced to send the bulk of these arrivals to the fore in order to make room for new receipts, as they found it almost impossible to sell these goods without taking a los The primary cause of the weak con- dition of the butter markets was that supplies were in excess of a ready de- mand. Receipts, while only slightly heavier than for the preceding week, were nevertheless greatly in excess of the demand and this resulted in an in- crease in the stocks on the street.
