Prices Trend Upward, Reserve Board Reports WASHINGTON, April 20. Reports from Federal Reserve agents show a marked tendency of prices to resume their upward movement, the Federal Reserve Hoard reported tonight, but the board noted tho hopeful sign, from the consumer's viewpoint, of "anxiety concerning the overstrained situation resulting from excessively high prices and wages," which it believed forecast a slowing down in the skyrocketing of prices. While high prices of necessaries obviously were chargeable to inefficiency and underproduction to a large degree, the board advanced the belief that the high costs of production were aggravated by the added expense of obtaining capital.

All the Great Newspapers of the United States printed the startling statement in the left hand column as to the high cost of necessities which please read. At this particular moment, when the highest financial authorities point out the ' probability of still higher prices, we believe that we have an incumbent duty to at least try to do something for our good customers to help them bear the excessive burdens of the hour, and to continue the effort by our Million and One-quarter Sales in I 9 1 9 to break the back-bone of high prices. Therefore, with but one reason only, that of a conscientious sense of dutv,
