Trade Reviews Say

NEW YORK; Sept. I.—Motor car sales for the country as a whole slackened somewhat in August as compared with July, thereby following the usual seasonal trend, says Motor in Its weekly review of trade c'aditions. Business Is exceedingly brisk In agricultural sections where the principal money crops have beer, harvested, but it has declined to a certain extent in some of the larger cities. Deliveries, nevertheless, are larger .than they were at this season a year kigo. Presumably this is due to new Imodels and rather substantial price Forced sales on too generous credit terms is a contributing factor, however. Most of the leading companies contend that they still are behind on deliveries and a good many of their dealers assert they have lost sails for this reason. Ford has swung into production on his new models after a sharp curtailment of output in the first half of the month to make way for them. His slowing up will result in a material shrinkage in the total of production as compared with July. The effect of price cuts on earnings soon will become apparent. If volume can be maintained or increased, there will be no adverse effects, but if retail sales fall off profits are likely to show a decline, because manufacturers have tacitly agreed not to overload their dealers. In the great majority of cases, however, third quarter profits will be larger than in. 1925, when the full effects of overproduction in the fir.3t five months were being felt. Truck and bus sales are materially ahead of last year and promise io remain relatively stable. The volume of original equipment, replacement parts and accessories business probably has established anew eight months’ record. In the Sugar Market B By Thomson & MeKinron W NEW tORK, Sept. I.—Small lots of raws changed hands late yesterday at 2% c. but little more was said to be avail6ble under 221 -32 c. Labor troubles in üba are forcing refiners into the market to cover immediate requirements. Interest in the futures market is at a low ebb.

GRAIN TRADE IS IRREGULAR Wheat Off Fractionally— Corn and Oats Up. Flu United, Press . CHICAGO, Sept. I.—The grain trade closed Irregular on the Board of Trado- today. Wheat suffered fractional losses. Corn was up sharply carrying oats with it. Bullish private experts' figures buoyed up wheat and checked downturn on profit selling. The market opened higher. On the top selling by commission houses caused a reaction. Fractionally under the previous close, the undertone strengflthened and prices carried to tho close at that level. Persistent buying by leading commission house boosted corn. It was inspired by private statistics that cut the crop prospects. Oats held within a narrow margin, but averaged higher with com. Good packing house buying and some commission house covering boosted provisions. Chicago’Grain Table —Sept. 1 — WHEAT — Prev. Open. High. Low. Close, close.
