Washington. nt Four years Prices Are Reduced to Meet Changed Conditions. Chicago. Latest compilation of tistics regarding present-da- y sta- incomes, living costs, new prices of commodities, farm produce, materials of all kinds, etc.. when compared with the standards immediately preceding the general business and industrial slump of 1929, provide an interesting picture. This is particularly true when analyzing the various prices which disclose how they closely parallel the reduction of the national Income which started Its downward slide in 19.W. Using the 1929 American national Income of S8G,8r!0,0O0.0O0 as the basis, a comparison with the national income of $70,si 4.000.000 in 1030 shows a loss of 18 per cent, or $16,000,000,000. The reduction of the 19.31 income showed a still greater drop, being 39 per cent or $34,133,000,000 less than 1929. In 1931 began the serious revamp- - HAWKEYE HALFBACK off. "Anybody can see that their feet hurt," Spellman declared. "I see gulls every day lean back on their heels and look around for a place to sit down. It's obvious their arches ache." Spellman's Interest in the foot troubles of the sea gulls has attracted the attention of many commuters, who ride his ferry daily, and the subject frequently comes in for "round table" discussion during the trip across the bay. Ing of prices to meet reduced Incomes, and with the estimated 1932 national income placed at $40,000,000,000, or 53 per cent off from 1929, even further reductions have resulted. Clothing, foodstuffs of all kinds, rents, real estate, fuel, rail, bus, steamship and air transportation, tools, plant equipment building materials, raw materialsi In fact, almost every item used by the Americnn family, or In business and Industry, have strived to meet this reduction. For example, farm products of all kinds disclose that 1932 prices are 60 per cent under the 1929 average; foodstuffs, one of the most Important of all Items, shows a decrease of 58 per cent from 1920 levels; average decrease In the various types of fuel range from 13 to 38 per cent less than three years ago; textile products are more than 40 per cent lower; hides and leather prodilcts are 41 per cent lower, which Is reflected In the lower retail prices of footwear; raw materials of all kinds show a decrease of 45 per cent; clothing Is 35 per cent off in fact taking all the Important living Items at their current price basis, and comparing the reduction with the difference In the national incomes of those years, it Is readily apparent that every effort is being made to keep commodity prices as close to national Income levels as possible. 200 Drunken Fish Reel Ashore in California Pay! ago.

Spellman, ferry conductor on San Francisco bay, contends that nature played a mean prank on the birds which loiter around the edge of the sea. The gulls were not provided knees. "Man has knees to absorb the shock when he Jumps," explained Spellman. "But when a gull lands he has to take 'the Jolt on his arches. "I've watched gulls light around the docks all day, and I'd go home at night with my feet aching from Just watching them." Gulls were provided with a calloused place on the rear of each foot to act as shock absorbers, according to Spellman. These "heel pads" soon wear "The trouble Is women don't stand together."
