The wool and woollens industry has had
much TO contend with of late The rulings and
orders of a Democratic Administration were
enough to break some. The overwhelming
deluge of foreign importatons thus permitted

threats of free wool and lower duties on goods
were enough to break some The eXtraor-

break down some firms which have lived

ers do not consider eectric-light wires especial
" dangerous they have not increased their
rates since the introduction of electricity, nor
do they make any difference between low

who have put faith in what is known as - I'M

good quality is guaranteed, are informed that
the Board of Underwriters has never formally

is especially significant that Professor Morton
