DEMAND INSTEAD OF SUPPLY

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
