BUYING SPREE HELD SUCCESS Muskegon, Mich. IIP) Tlie drive by Muskegon clubmen to end the "buyers' strike" and bring about a return of prosperity through a "spend million a week campaign was so successful that merchants urged adoption of similar drives In other cities. Incomplete reports from represen tative business houses disclosed that business Increased several time dur ing the campaign week, that tocks were depleted, old bills paid, hun dreds of thousands of dollars of Idle money put Into circulation and the way cleared for the business men to aid manufacturers by purchasing new goods. ! During the campaign, which was started by President L. H. Heitdyk1 of the Klwanls club, 300 members of seven clubs pldged themselves to spend $100 each. They also succeed ed In getting many other men to spend like amounts. Merchants aid ed by offering bargains and banks by lending money at unusually at tractive Interest rates, with special savings Inducements. "It is Just as Important to spend money now as It was to buy Liberty bonds during the war," was the slo gan Rcltdyk used throughout the drive.

Commercial 8tvaleia Koom 26 Mi WHEAT PRICES CLOSE DOWN IN LATE REACTION Chicago (IP) Showing unexpected reserve strength, wheat recovered from s break of about l'i cents Just before noon on the board of trade Tuesday, but closed fractionally lower. The setback was caused by selling started by easiness at Min neapolis and weakness in securities combined with profit taking. Trade was no large but support was In evidence on the dips and the mar ket easily Influenced. Strength at Liverpool was a factor. Corn suf fered heavy pressure during the latter half of the session and was sharply lowr. Oats held about steady. At the close wheat was 'i to S cent lower, corn was " to 14 cents lower and oats were 4 cent lower. Provisions were steady. Chicago, (Influenced by un looked for sharp advances In Liv erpool wheat quotations, all grain values here went higher early Tues day, statements credited to Chair man Legge of the federal farm board that agricultural comm mo dify prices had reached bottom, attracted much notice and so like wise did Liverpool reports that Russian offerings of wheat abroad were fewer and at higher prices. Opening hi to V.ic up, Chicago wheat future delivery contracts held near afterward to the Initial range. Corn started unchanged to luc rise, and subsequently con tin ued firm. MEAT PRICES MUCH LOWER Chicago ;p) Most meats are wholesaling now from one-fifth to one-third lower than a year ago, William Whitfield Woods, of Chi cago, president of the Institute of meat packers said at their conveiv tion. The wholesale prices of fresh pork cuts are slightly lower at present than last October but the prices of smoked pork cuts are slightly high er, he said. The decline In beef prices, compared with a year ago, run from 20 to 30 per cent, varying according to grade and weight. In general the choicest gades have de clined least. Veal prices are from 13 to 20 per cent lower than a year ago. Wholesale price of lamb, which reached the lowest level since 1914 In September, are still very low, and at present is about 30 per cent lower than October 1929. He said the aggregate production of meat for the year would probably re siigntiy smaller than In 1929. He added that the stocks of meat in cold storage In October 1 were 20 per cent lower than Oct. 1, 1929. NEW LOW PRICE FOR TEXAS TURKEYS Cuero, Tex. (LP) In this village, the turkey capital of the nation, the price was quoted Tuesday at 12 cents a pound, a new low for many seasons. Growers were urged to hold their flocks and market only the choic est birds at present, as packing plant operators said they expected an advance to probably- 18 cents, however, when the holiday market opens November 7. ExperU predicted a normal crop, despite drought conditions and low prices.
