FACTORY QUTPUT CONTINUES TORISE Associated Press Average Jumps to 92.3, Highest Since May, 1930. By the Assoctated Press. NEW YORK, July 4—No respecter of scasons, industrial production con- tinued to charge ahead into new high territory this week, heedless of the “Summer dullness” that is generally expected. The Associated Press index of in- dustrial activity stepped up to 92.3— the highest since May, 1930—against 91.3 a week ago and 72 last year. Only one component of the index failed to establish or equal its peak for the year, automobile output. The spurt in steel mill activity is still based on the new price schedule, with labor trouble possibilities causing & small amount of stocking. Cotton manufacturing speeded up sharply as cotton and cotton cloth prices jumped a notch while sales re- mained at high levels. Drought - sponsored irrigation of farm land and the increased indus- trial tempo were primarily responsible for the record electric power con- sumption. Carloadings responded to a 12 per cent rise in coal shipments. Automo- bile production continued around the 100.000 mark for the fifth week. Resi- dential construction equaled last ‘week's high point. The index, with its seasonally ad- Justed components based on the latest available statistics, and with 1929-30 as 100, follows: Composite index le prod “New 1536 high. Commodity Price Changes for Week BY A, A. PATTON, Associated Press Statistician. NEW YORK, July 4—Widespread drought and high temperatures con- tinued to dominate the Nation's com- modity marts during the week, ac- companied by soaring prices of the affected staples. The Associated Press weighted index of 35 commodities advanced to 74.65 from 73.75 last week and compares with 72.17 a year ago. The intensity of the drought that has spread like a blight over most of the country’s best farm land is indi- cated by a comparison with the dis- astrous 1934 scourge. The percentage deviation from normal rainfall from May and June in the critical States for both 1934 and 1936 finds North and South Dakota, Minnesota, Mis- souri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, ©Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Montana with far less rain this year than in that very dry period. J. B. Kinser, head of the Weather Bureau, recently stated, “The urgent need for rain is more widespread this year than either 1930 or 1934.” 1934 Record Recalled. Avoidance of a major catastrophe this year is dependent on plenty of rain during the next two months. Commodity circles recall, however, that July and August were the dryest months in 193¢ and wrought the greatest damage to crops. Wheat quotations swept above a dollar for the first time in many months, pacing the agricultural index The Dakotas, growing about half of total crop were revised sharply down- ward. The latest estimates point to an out-turn slightly above our normal consumption of 650,000,000 bushels. The Dakotas, growing about helf of the Spring wheat, deteriorated notably during the week. | All grain prices ran up on the rain | shortage. Rye and corn turned in the best market performances, with oats following closely. The jump in corn coincide with reports of damage to the crop in the three biggest corn States: Iowa, Illinois and Indiana. Cotton nudged ahead slightly with the Government sald to be virtually out of the market, The drop in the livestock index, the only decline, was the result of an 11 per cent setback in the lamb price, as hogs moved up fractionally. The weakness in lambs followed Tumors of a large run this year. Wholesale Foods Higher. ‘Wholesale food prices were narrowly higher. Eggs. coffee, lard and butter more than offsetting lower cocoa and flour quotations. With steel billets advancing for the first time in months, industrial commodities climbed. Rubber, steel scrap and turpentine joined the ad- vaace in finished steel. Bituminous coal and burlap slipped back. To the tune of a booming cotton textile industry, sharply expanded de- mand for finished goods put cotton up & notch. Wool and silk, however, yielded to a minor selling flurry. Tin centinued to recover from the depths it sank to shortly after the international agreement raised the world quota from 85 to 90 per cent. The index, and its components, with 1926 as 100, follows: July 3. Wk. ago, 7868 7i7h Year ago. 72.17 8 s Industrial ood __ LIVERPOOL COTTON B uhe Assoclated Press.

Statistics Favorable. | Py the AscoctateaPress. NEW YORK, July 4.—Although tin | prices moved in an erratic fashion the past week, there was an under- | | current of steadiness and at the end a slight net gain was shown. deliveries and world stocks for June, | along with the maintenance of tin- Pplate operations at full capacity, were the sustaining influences. Against this combination, however, London and the fact that buyers' confidence generally continued some- what shaken as a result of the slump that followed the raising of export quotas by the International Commit- tee at the end of June. World stocks in June decreased nearly 2,000 tons to 14,260 tons, while domestic deliv- eries of 7,795 tons last month were the best reported since August, 1933. Lead buying was quite brisk in the forepart of the week, but later quiet- ness prevailed. Zinc was steady to firm in tone. Hardening of prices in the export market featured an otherwise quiet situation in copper. Sales for export were reported up to 9.221 cents, while the domestic price held un- changed at 9% cents valley. CLEARING HOUSE ISSUES REPORT AT NEW YORK|! by the Ascociatea Press.
