Rising Price OF soIe-Leather

Some time ago the Shoe Retailer,
a leading shoe trade duplication OF
Boston, Mass, made an investigation
of the increasing cost of shoe mater
ials and stated it's conclusion that OF
all the increases in cost of various
shoe materials as shown in different
cost tables covering periods OF five
years or more as published by differ
ent authorities, that by far the
largest increases have occurred
during the past twelve months.
1t was recognize ed that there
had been an upward tendency
in the price of shoe materials
for several years, but it was
emphasized that the sharpest ad-
vance totaling large proper
ton of the whole, had occurred dur
ing the preceding twelve months.
In the matter of sole-leather alone,
the investigation showed that the
better tannages of sole-leather were
from five to seven cents. per pound
higher than similar grades sold for
one year previous. Relatively
speaking, a pound of leather means
a pair of soles, or in other words,
a cent on a pound of sole stock
means a cent on a pair of soles, so
that raise of five to seven cents
per pound means raise of five to
seven cents per pair of soles.
But it was stated also that high
priced sole-leather means higher cost
for insoles, half-soles, full double
soles, etc.
This is one of the reasons for high
cost shoes, but there are many others,
including increased prices for upper
leather, for fabrics, and all other
kinds of shoe materials and sup
plies are costing more.
All of these conditions are reflect
ed in the prices of shoes which are
highertoday than one year ago and
must be higher next year than they
are today. Ii is not a welcome pro-
phecy, but we may as we'll face it be-
cause the decreasing supply of
leather on the one hand and the
rnu1tinlied uSeS for leather in other
industries together with the need of
shoes for an increasing population
must mean nothing else than con-
stantly increasing price for shoes.
