A firmer business tone was reported today in the two most sensitive barom- eters, wholesale commodity prices and rail carloadings. Such is considered in government cir- cles here as confirming recent signs of business expansion and financial re- covery.

SuCun o commodity prices leveled off at 65.4 for the week ending September 24, follow- ing a decline of one-half of 1 per cent the prev week. This bears out re- cent statements cf leading economists that recovery must be a gradual and a regular process Rise Mcre Than Seasonal, ‘The Commerce Department received information from private sources today that freight movement on a number of leading carriers for the week ending September 24 indicates that the upwar trend in car loadings is more than sea- sonal in proportion, and that for the first time this year a total of more than 600,000 freight cars will be loaded on the Nation's carriers this week. Official car-loading statements are not expected before Saturday. The leveling’ off of the commodity prices was due to increases in prices of farm products, textile products, building materiais and metal and metal products. Foods and hoysehold fuinishings were unchanged, while declines were noted in holy communion. 2,000 Pennies Reported Stolen. Theft of 2,000 pennies and a watch, valued at $40, from her apartment, in the 3100 block of Connecticut avenue, was reported to police yesterday by Mary kson. hides, fuel and lighting, and chemicals and drugs. Food averages held on at 62.1 from the previous week because of general reduction in meat quotations, further marking down of potatoes and other vegetables and sharp lowering of cocoa. The weakness of meat and vegetables appeared to be due to warm weather, which slowed consumers’ demands. Lumber Begins Advance. Rallies in prices of raw cotton and raw silk in the middle of last week and continued firmness of wool resulted in a report of general strengthening of the textile price structure. Lumber prices have commenced to advance, re- flecting improved demand The Commerce Department said it was informed that the official car load- ing figures Saturday will show an in- crease of about 20,000 cars above the 584,000 reported for the week ending September 17. Comparisons with last year are particularly impressive, since loadings failed to show the usual sea- 501al improvement at this time in 1931, The department said a number of carriers have already reported that the upward swing in carloadings has neces- sitated the recpening of numerous shops, thus giving employment to thou- sands of workmen laid off last Spring. It cited the report yesterday that the New York Central would add 4.000 hopmen to its force. In the week ending September 24, the New York Central lines loaded 41,050 revenue freight cars, against 49,039 in the like week last year. This was a decline of 169 per cent. Loadings in the pre- ceeqing week were 40,743 cars, against 51,850 in the like 1931 period, a re- n of 21.4 per cent. Total load- in including those received from connections during last week, amount- ed to 91,134 cars, against 108,472 in the like week a year ago, a drop of 159 the total was 89,945 against 111,309 per cent. During the previous week in the like 1931 period, a drop of 19.9 per cent. The Pennsylvania reports total car loadings for the week ending September »f 88.424; of which 54,409 originated ines and 34.015 were received onnections. This compares with in the preceding week and 113,- n the corresponding 1931 week. The Gecline from a year ago was 22.4 per cent, while last week's figures showed a decline of 23.7 per cent from & year ago. Loadings in the Southwest continued to show good sized gains in the last weck. Missouri Pacific handled 23,034 freight cars, against 2,517 in the previ- ous week, and 25,546 in the same week last year. International Great Northern loaded 3588 cars in the week of September 24, against 3,576 in the previous week, and 4.611 in the like week last year. The Gulf Coast Lines handled 2419 cars, against 2,237 in the like week last year.
