Wet weather this week prevented the hauling of eggs to shipping points In Maryland and Virginia, where road | condltions were miserable, resulting in Ughter receipts yesterday and t morning, making the market a trifle stronger. Prices went up a cent, but dealers look for a drop before the opening of the coming week's market. Poultry receipts were also affected by the road conditions. Dealers say poultry is not especially plentiful, how ever, and } receipts next week are Very few live bro w ll‘l»v- broiler were quoted and con- frozen not so much in dema e sumers a upon broflers Dealers say ve or six weeks befor ers from pearby States will begin to arrive in falrly large numbe Last _season the opening price such brollers| was 65 cents, but i to predict the prob this Spring.

The Federal Reserve Board In its review of business conditions today reported declines in the volume of industrial activity and distribution of commodities in January, due to seasonal reactions. Production in selected basic indus- tries threughout the country was about 1 per cent lower than in December. While factory employ- ment showed little change, the earn- ings of workers decreased consider- ably because of the closing of many plants for inventory taking. Building _contracts awarded in January, although less than in De- cember, exceeded in volume that of any prévious January, particularly in New York and Atlanta reserve istricts. Automobile production, like- ‘ise, was considerably larger than a vear ago, although less than in De- cember. Wholesale trade deciined consiler- ably, but wholesale prices remained practically unchanged from December. | Early this month grain and rubber | priegs declined and with the settle- | ment of the anthracite coal strike [ bituminous coal and coke prices | clumped. Price advances were report- refined sugar, copper and pe- troleum. After a decrease in January in the demand for credit from member sanks the volume of loans and {nvest- ments increased considerably early this month. The increase was largely In loans for commercal purposes, | which had declined almost continu from their seasonal peak in Oc- , but advanced by more than $50,000,000 in February.
