Pace of Industry
j Higher Past Week
Stands at 95.7, Increase
! Following Slump , of
Previous Period
t NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-)-Re-coTering
from its recent Bet-
back, the tempo of industry was
moved up to within a fraction
of the peak touched two weeks
ago. " ' -
The Associated Press index of
industrial activity closed last
week at 95.7 per cent of the
1929-30 average, compared with
95.1 (revised) last week and 73.7
in the same period a year ago.
Automobile output was stepped
up sharply as Ford went back
into production after a two week
lay-off. " -
Steel mill operations continued
to nudge ahead in the wake of
an early July dip as miscellane
ous takings of all kinds remain
ed at a high level.
Although the seasonally ad
justed carloadings index was un
changed,, smaller grain shipments
resulting from the drought off
set a sizeable increase in miscel
laneous loadings.
The slight decline in cotton
manufacturing activity Is held in
significant by the trade. It points
to the fact that looms have re
cently been turning out yard
goods at the fastest sustained
clip since the summer of 1933,
above the 1929 rate.
Electric power production rose
as heat again swept many sec
tions of the country, boosting
current used.

Hop Market Is
Firm on Coast
Quiet as Buyers, Wait For
Definite Facts Upon "
Crop; lirvest On.,...
Pacific coast hop markets con
tinued seasonally quiet but main
tained a steady . tone during the
week ended August 19, accord
ing to the weekly hop market
review of the United States bur
eau of agricultural economics.
Although trading was very light.
prices to growers were generally
considered as holding unchanged
from those which have prevailed
for the past few weeks. Sales by
growers in the three coast states
were limited to 13 bales in Ore-
eon, no sales being reported in
California or ; Washington
Oregon markets developed the
only sales activity on the coast
during the week, witn sales oy
growers totalling. 13 6 bales of
1935 crop Clusters, which netted
growers soc per pouna. mere
were no new contracts reported
written during the period, and no
sales of older growths; 1834 crop
hops were" nominally quoted at
15c to 20c per pound, net grow
er. Recent favorable weather has
helped the Oregon crop and most
of the insect infestations are re
ported less prevalent, -
Only 7.784 bales of. the 1935
crop remamea in uregon grow
ers hands at the close of the
period under review, according
to trade figures. No reports as
to outturns or quality of the new
crop is yet available.
Washington markets were very
quiet, with no sales of spot hops
reported in either the Yakima
valley or western Washington
areas. Only one lot of 1935 crop
hops were reported left in the
Takima valley, for which grower
asked 50c per pound. No new
contracts reported in that area.
Cooler nights and lower day
temperatures in the Yakima val
ley reported helping control red
spider. I

California hoa market- wor
quiet but maintained a firm tnn
during the week. With remaining
i. a crop stocKs reduced to
small amounts and with a rel
atively large portion of the 1936
crop aireaay unaer contract, sell
ing pressure was unusually light.
Most growers were either alreariv
at work or making preparations
lor narvesting tne 19 3 S crop and
this also tended to limit tradinr.
Harvesting made -rood nroeresn
in the Sacramento vallev with
trade estimates that around one-'
third of .the eron had been nlIr-
ed to Aug. 20. Yields were turn
ing out about equal to earlier
expectations with most estimates
placing the prospective Sacra
mento outturn at around ISTOOO
to 18,500 bales. Quality of the
new trnn wait rennrte1 as rnnil
Labor for picking was about
ampie tor needs wltn pickers re
ceiving 1.25 per 100 and with
some vards navine- a hnnns nt SK
to pickers remaining through
narvest.
At the close of the week. So
noma county growers generally
were asking 40c for 1938 hops
with occasional bids of around
35c-36c per pound. Mendocino
growers were bid 34c but were
asking 35c . and some options
were taken at the latter price
as the period closed. Sacramento
valley growers generally were
holding 1936 hops to sell along
with 1937 and 1938 supplies and
were asking 35c, 25c and 20c
for the three respective years.
