PORKER PRICES [HERE DIP NEAR

10-Cent Decline Pulls Top To0.$5.15; 4000 Hogs “Are Shipped In.

Hog prices at Indianapolis today fell to within 10 cents of the sixyear low mark, the Agricultural Marketing Service reported. Weights above 160 pounds were generally: off the dime, together with a few early sales of lighter weights. Sellers resisted .the decline until late in the morning, but heavy Saturday receipts of around

4000 hogs proved the chief price Am

determining factor. The downturn left practically all weights of hogs 50 cents under last week’s close. The top dropped to $5.15, compared with the six-year low of $5.05 on April 1 this year. The highest top reached to date this year was $6.75 on April 24. Good and choice 220 to 230-pound hogs continued to draw top money.

Packing sows sold at steady prices, |Barnsdall putting good offerings within a|Be

range of most $3.85 to $4.50.

There was little change in the news to agcount for the initial selloff in wheat which carried prices off 1 cent net in early dealings. Traders generally regarded the 8 | market as more vulnerable to sell-

operations. There was some small buying attributed to flour interests but generally the declines met little resistance. December wheat was under the most conspicuous pressure in early trading.

WAR TOPPLES SEED MARKET

State Forestry Division Buys Up All It Can Lay Hands On.

Because of the war in Europe two things are happening ‘which affect Hoosiers: 1. The bottom has fallen out of the tree seed market because there is no foreign sale, and 2. Indiana’s Forestry Division of the Conservation Department is buying all the seed it can lay its hands on. Next year and the year after the Division plans to raise record crops of seedlings for transplanting. However, there is another and gloomier side to the situation. Most of. the conifer (evergreen) seed is gathered in Canada and the process is slow and painstaking. It is nearly all hand work, and each individual must be handled separately. Considering that Indiana’s normal requirement of conifer seed for one year’s planting is around 850 million seeds, the. job of providing and processing them assumes large proportions. . With the war on, Canada is sending her men to Europe, to fight, and the harvest of seed probably will be Foiucen considerably in the years to com Nearly all of the soft maple seed from - Indianapolis south to the Ohio River in Indiana was killed this year by the last. heavy snow and freeze. Soft maple seed was so scarce, in fact, that the Forestry Department swept the streets of Corydon, Ind.) and sifted the sweepings for seed. That was the only place good seed

| was found. The trees in the south-

ern city were more protected than those in the open country. The’ department also uses annually about 60,000 pounds of walnut seeds, a ton of white oak acorns and 600 to 800 pounds of red oak acorns.

"00D MUSIC" | By James Thrasher | Since a sizeable han of internationally famous com; rs are in Hollywood, and since some of their most sensible and melodic, lif unobtrusive, music has been | written for the films, it seems queer that their sound track creations seldom make their way outside the movie houses. Perhaps a start in the right direction will be made tomorrow, however, when Howard Barlow dnd the Columbia Broadcasting Symphony present a concert version of Aaron Copland’s score for “Our Town” on CBS-WFBM at 1 p. m. So far is I know, this is the first time that incidental film music has been presented on a network broadcast. A very few suites from movie scores have been heatd on nonbroadcast programs by some of our leading orchestras after the picture had been in circulation some time. But Mr. Copland’s music is coming out ahead of the picture. “Our Town” is scheduled to open in New York on Wednesday. Mr. Copland wrote the music for it in March and April, and arranged the concert version only two weeks ago. This isn’t Mr. Copland’s first experience with the films, since: he already has composed background music for “The City” and:*Of Mice and Men.” He also has done other theatrical writing, such as his ballet, “Billy the Kid,” and incidental scores for Mercury and Group Theater productions. Besides the Copland music, Mr. Barlow has listed the Overture to Rossini’s “The Barber of Seville” and the Bruckner Ninth Symphony, postponed from last waekd concert.

During the NBC Symphony Orchestra’s summer tour of South 8 = 8

RADIO

America, its sponsoring network is continuing to present symphonic music. The series began last week at 6 p. m. on NBC-Blue, with Frank Black conducting an orchestra of “the outstanding musicians aval able,” NBC says. . Mr. Black will be heard tomorow night and the following two weeks at the same hour. He will be followed by Edwin MacArthur, June 30-July 21; Efrem Kurtz, July 28;

‘Erich. Leinsdorf, Aug. 4-Sept. 8, and

Isler Solomon, Sept. 15-29. ” os 8 NBC also plans to bring North American listeners some broadcasts by the NBC Symphony en route and after their arrival for the summer tour. The first of these, a rehearsal concert, is scheduled for Wednesday at an unspecified time, with H. Leopold Spitalny, director of orchestra personnel conducting. This will be just after the arrival in Rio de Janeiro. Later conceris: it seems fairly certain, will be conducted by Arturo Toscanini. 8 8% Hentletta Schumann is to play the Mendelssohn G. Minor Piano Concerto with the Radio City Music Hall String Symphony at 10 a. m. tomorrow on NBC-Blue. Maurice Baron will conduct. The broadcast’s other soloist will be Lorenzo Alvari, basso of the St. Louis Opera Company. He will sing an aria from Handel's “Acis and Galatea” and Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s vocal arrangement of the Second Prelude of Chopin. Radio conductor Andre Kostelanetz and his wife Lily Pons, the Metropolitan songbird, are going to tour again this summer after their spectacular success of last yaer. In four appearances during the sultry months of 1939, the couple drew almost 130,000 customers to four concerts.. This year they're going to do flve —one each with the symphony orchestras of Philadelphia, Milwau= kee, San Francisco, Los angeles and New York. a
