DEMAND INSTEAD OF SUPPLY WaGERS or, of the Both the general level of farm prices and the index of factory pay- rolls in the United States have de clined 60 percent since October, 1929, according to the monthly sum mary ot the trend of demand, prices and costs of farm products Just re leased by the agricultural extension service. In commenting on this fact, L. R. Breithaupt, college extension econo mist, said, “The decline in the pur chasing power of consumers appears to be much more of a reason for the great decline in farm prices than the slight changes which have oc curred in the total supply of farm products from year to year.” The report points out that more than the usual seasonal increase has occurred since August in industrial production, factory employment and payrolls, and in general business activity. On the other hand, all of the gains made in the general level of wholesale prices from June to September have been lost and the general level of farm prices has de clined over 5 percent since mid-Sep tember. The position of Federal Reserve member banks to make loans has continued to improve, but actual bank loans outside of New York Ci ty, and New York commercial in terest rates, have -continued to de cline. Some encouragement is to be had because the decline in farm prices has been partly offset by lower pri ces for commodities bought by far mers. However, the cost of produc ing farm products has not declined nearly as much as farm income, says the report. The index of Oregon farm prices was given at 45 percent of the aver- ige level from 1926 to 1930, with .the United States average at 42. Compared with the pre-war level of farm prices, the index for the whole jountry was 59 percent. The index f prices paid by farmers was 107 percent of pre-war compared with 122 a year ago and 153 as the aver- ige from 1926 to 19301 -------------- e-- ------------ :• • • • • • • 00000*** > • NOT =================== Specials for Saturday & Monday, Dec. 10th & 12th. 3 bars IIII BUOY RIE SO } Large Package RINSO Small Package •• Pkge.
