Federal Reserve Report Says Employ
ment Gains 2 Per Cent Dur
ing Last Month
Chicago, July 27. Good crops,
with the exception of hay and fruit,
are in prospect for Iowa, Illinois, In
diana, Wisconsin and Michigan, the
Federal Reserve bank of Chicago re
ported Sunday in an abstract from its
monthly survey.
The recent extreme heat somewhat
damaged growing crops, the report
set out, and there is no present evi
dence of a bumper harvest.
Threshing of winter wheat and rye
in the area and the satisfactory pro
gress of corn, oats, spring wheat and
barley was noted. The production of
soy beans in the five states and of
edible dry beans in Michigan is great
er, the statement pointed out. Con
cerning dairy products the resume
stated:
"Seventh district production
of creamery butter decreased IY2
per cent in June, contrary to the
usual trend.
Milk Decreases.
"Reduced milk production as
a result of pasture deterioration
and irritation of the animals by
fliese, together with the low but
ter price levels, wer the prin
cipal factors in the recession.
Sales showed a further increase
of 4 per cent during the
month, 9 per cent under those
of last June. Inventories of the
commodity at warehouses in the
United States on July 1 showed
au accumulation considerably
in excess of the '5-year average.
Quotations, trending downward
but firming slightly, remained
at a very low level.
"Receipts of American cheese
t Wisconsin primary markets,
indicative of production of state
factories, failed in seasonal gain
but were 20 per cent heavier
than in May and per cent
larger than last year. Redis
tribution from these centers in
creased 50 per' cent during the
month
that of
cent.
and tonnage exceeded
a year .ago by 4 per
Cheese Slumps.
"June cheese receipts at Chi
cago were decidedly less than
in the same month last year but
stocks in the United States were
21,000 pounds in excess of the 5
year average. Prices continued
to ease and at the end of June
were at the lowest level in
years."
Although meat-packing production
decreased 4 per cent in June to the
level of that of the previous period
in 1929, the survey noted, employ
ment gained 2yz per cent. Domestic
demand was listed as fair to good for
meats but a 2 per cent decline in sales
during the month due to "unemploy
ment in the cities, and low level of
prices for farm products' was re
corded.
June prices were described as mix
ed but downward in trend. Export
business was classified as dull. Oma

NEEDS IN SHIPPING LESS
Washington The $3,000,000,000
government agency which spent one
third of that sum i na single year
plans to ask for only $4,000,000 for
its maintenance next year. Alto
gether, $3,683,509,000 has been ap
propriated for the shipping board and
the Merchant Fleet corporation, the
board's operating agency. Of that
sum, $1,067,183,000 was spent in a
single year 1918, when the United
States was at war and ordered the
board to buy and build ships re
gardless of cost.
Since that year the appropriations
have decreased steadily. They were
$110,915,000 in 1922. $30,000,000 in
1925 and $6,000,000 for this year.
The board is slowly going out of the
shipping business, concentrating now
on stimulation of the domestic mer
chant marine. For this latter pur
pose, President J. R. Jordan of the
Merchant Fleet corporation estimates
$4,000,000 will be enough next year.
