peeially on Short Courses.

says the Gane is nara OnSJ ES-

the swing board with kite line; then
we'd unfasten the line, and one of us
would get in while the others would

Trade and industrial activity con-

In manufacturing lines the iran

Though producers are handicapped
by the persistent strength of hides
and leather.
Export trade is dull. inquiries
from Indian and Red Sea points be-

quoted The decline in supers has
made a resumption Of demand from
China still more remote.
Hides are again very firm, large
