GAP PREVENTING PROFITS REAPING IS BEING CLOSED Cost of Production, Price Received Are Growing Nearer Together. By United I’rum WASHINGTON. Sept. B.—Rises in the commodity markets are gradually closing the chasm which for three years has stood between those two great factors in business—the cost of production and the price received. Already the cotton market his risen, a study of department of agriculture figures indicates, to a point today's prices will yield a profit to the producer of much of the nation's cotton supply. Wheat prices are approaching profit for some of the more efficient and successful growers. Corn and oats, among the agricultural products, and such metals as copper and lead are making progress, but still have a considerable distance to go. Entirely accurate figures which would permit one to say at just what point in the market the price begins to yield a profit to the commodity producer, can not be gathered, government departments explain. Variation in Costs This is because <sf the variations in such items of production cost as labor, seed, fertilizer, marketing costs, and, in fact, most of the items that go to make up the exact cost per pound or per bushel of any commodity. The latest government figures available show that in 1931 the largest part of the American cotton crop was produced at 9 cents a pound. The figure included marketing costs. Wednesday spot cotton closed at 9 cents on the New York market. A considerable quantity of cotton, however, was produced in 1931 at less than 9 cents a pound, ranging down to 6 cents. For those producers who were able to grow coton at such figures there appeared to be a neat profit in Wednesday’s price. This year's crops are being produced at prices considerably lower than those of 1931, such figures as are available indicate. Take, for instance, the case of whea'fc. Department of agriculture figures show that in 1931 the theoretical average production cost of a bushel of wheat was 91 cents. But it cost $6.94 for labor to till an acre of wheat in that year—that is approximately four days labor at an average of $1.73 a day. Make Money on Wheat Seen This year the department of agriculture found that in July the average farm labor cost was down to about $1.23 per day. It reduced the farmer’s labor cost in tilling an acre of wheat to a theoretical $4.92. That reduction alone, without considering possibly lower prices for fertilizers, seed and other items making up the cost of production, would reduce the cost of producing a bushel of wheat to a theoretical average of 72 cents. It seemed probable to some experts that wheat can be produced now by the more efficient farmers working under the best conditions, for 60 cents, or maybe a little less. Wheat closed Wednesday at 53% cents per bushel. A rise of a comparatively few more cents will begin to bring a profit to some of the more fortunate producers.

JOB INSURANCE DRIVE IS BEGUN BV A. F. OF L. Compulsory, Paid For by Industry, Enacted by States, Is Plan. By United Pres a WASHINGTON. Sept. B.—Compulsory unemployment insurance paid for by industry, and enacted by state laws, was described today by President William Green as an immediate objective of the American Federation of Labor. Green said a model insurance bill was being drafted. The program will be submitted to the federation convention in Cincinnati after the presidential elections. "We found that constitutional inhibitions would bar a federal unemployment insurance law,” Green said. "We wanted a federal law but have abandoned that project. We

will seek enactment of state Jaws throughout the union.” The federation previously has not demanded compulsory unemploy* ment insurance. There is no doubt here that the convention will support Green in his state-by-state insurance project. Green said the federation's program was in addition to unemployment insurance proposed in a ’bill offered by Senator Robert Wagner (Dem., N. Y.) The Wagner bill, he explained, did not provide compulsory insurance. but offered inducements tost ates and industries to participate in it. Wagner would permit the federal government to contribute to unemployment insurance, and would exempt from federal income tax all sums so contributed by industry. •’Our bill will incorporate three principal features,” Green said: 1. It must be compulsory insurance. 2. The cost must be placed*on industry and administration must be by the states. 3. Working men and women must be protected in the exercise of their right to belong to a trade union. Mellon Returns to London SOUTHAMPTON, England, Sept. B.—Andrew W.
