On Monday the new wage schedule In

The merchants claim that already they
feel the effect of the intended cut and
that they think 1t very probable that the
effect will be more plainly felt during
the coming holiday season, when there Is
generally more money circulating than
during any other time OF the year. The
fact that ten per cent discount will be
made from each days wages will appear
to most OF those affected by the cut as
much more than IL really is and the VAL
ley merchants anticipate somewhat of a
depression during the coming holiday sea-
son.
