THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

DROP IN BUSINESS SHOWN FOR JUNE

Building, However, Stays Active, With Many Contracts. By United Press WASHINGTON. July 28. The Federal reserve board reported today that business, in general, slowed up in June to a degree greater than the usual summer decline. “Industrial production and distribution of commodities in June were in smaller volume than in May and the general level of wholesale prices also declined,” the board announced. It pointed out that there was a 6 per cent decrease in miner|J production in June; manufacture of iron and steel decreased; product!bn of flour, cotton and woolen mills decreased and automobile production was “considerably less than the usual seasonal decline.” Manufacture of agriculture implements and machine tools; production of lumber, copper and shoes, and the activity of silk mills increased during the month, however. New building contracts continued large, w’ith an increase in contracts for residential, industrial, public and educational buildings, making the total awards for the first hall of 1928 larger than for any previous corresponding period, the board said without, however, citing recent statistics.

BUSINESS IS EXPANDED BY CRESCENT NULLS Concern to Handle Metal Treating for Other Firms. N. V. Dslvin, manager of the Crescent Excelsior Mills, anounces that the company is equipped to handle metal treating for outside firms. The mills have been in the excelsior business for eight years, and recently have started the manufacture of machine knives in adition. The metal treating equipment, used for their own work, is sufficient to care for more than their own needs. Delvin said. ROBINSON IS SPEAKER senator Addresses Central IV. C. T. U. at EHenberger Park. Fear that “the boys and girls of today may not know what all this talk of prohibition Is about” was expressed by Senator Arthur R. Robinson, addressing the Central W. C. T. U. picnic in EHenberger Park Friday, “They cannot know as we dff," said Senator Robinson. “Education such as this organization gives is very necessary. The Government is brought closer to the people of the United States in every amendment to the Constitution.” Mrs. A. W. Whelan led the devotions, followed by readings by Miss Helen Starr, Girl Reserves president. Mrs. W. W. Reedy, president, announced the next meeting will b; held in the parlor of the Fletcher American Bank Bldg., Aug. 10.

OHIO RIVER-RAIL ROUTESOUGHT Commerce Commisssion Gets Short Line Plea. Bff Times Special WASHINGTON. July 28—The determination of the interstate commerce commission to encourage the establishment of joint water and rail routes for heavy freight is forecast in recommendations of Assistant Director C. V. Burnside of the bureau of finance. In a special report to the commission, Burnside, over the objections of the Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio and New York Central Railroads, recommends permission to construct anew short line railroad from Youngstown, Ohio, to the Ohio River near Pittsburgh. The new line contemplates the future extensive use of the Oh.o ind Mississippi rivers by the Mahoning valley steel industry which here tofore has been at a competitive disadvantage with Pittsburgh and Chicago steel manufacturers because of their inability to transport economically by water. “From the great and increasing use of the waterways of the Ohio system, it is clear that their development has been justified," the report declares.” It i salso apparent that these agencies, which have been practically created by the Government, should as speedily as possible be made available to the public generally, through the establishment of a common carier service.” PROTEST VERDUN NOISE Americans Ask U. S. to Buy Site of Dance Hall Near Graves. By United Press PARIS. July 28.—Americans returning from the battlefields complained to the American embassy today that a tactless case keeper has opened a noisy dance hall just opposite the gates to the Romagne cemetery, near Verdun, where 14,000 Americans, killed in the Argonne fighting, are buried. The tourists declared to embassy officials that the soil should be considered as sacred and urged that the United States Government buy the land surrounding the war cemeteries in Europe to prevent such desecration.
