"Made in America Pottery

In connection with the interruption
of our normal trade with European
countries, the following extracts from
the United States Geological Survey
report on the pottery industry are in
teresting. Speaking of the prosperous
condition of the industry in 1918, this
report, published in July, continues.
1.-THE year opened with bright pros
poets and sufficient business to keep
the potteries busy. and throughout the
spring and summer and we'll into the
fall business was generally reported
as unusually good. There resulted
the largest production In the history
of the industry. The underlying
cause of this prosperity is no doubt
the improved character Of the Ameri-
can product in texture, finish, color,
decoration and prevention of Grazing,

some OF the higher grades of Anleri-
can pottery equaling IL not surpass-
ing some of the best imported ware.
"The imports OF pottery have al
ways been more or less interesting.
For many years the value of imported
pottery exceeded the value of that
made at homo, but about the close
of the nineteenth century domestic
production caught up with imports
and since that time has greatly lex-
ceeded them, the production Of 1YlS
being nearly four times as great in
value as the imports"
There was in 1913. however, a CON
siderable decrease in the exports Of
pottery, but an increase should be ex
pected In 1914 and following years by
reason of the changes in the worlds
commerce that seem inevitable.

were the promises that hundreds
