High living costs blamed on supply and demand rules
Washington reports price surges in grain beans and meat due to production drops and rising demand from Europe and the Mexican border. Estabrook, chief of the Bureau of Crop Estimates, says the spikes are a temporary, market driven effect. Also noted is a postponed coroner inquest into the killings of Martini Antone and Jack Collinson after a suspected murder by Franciscus Van Der Helden, with police from Capt. Tennant seeking leads nationwide.
