be felt by Washingtonians. Results of
investigation yesterday among shoe deal
ers show that in anticipation OF the
present boost in leather prices local mer-
chants have purchased stocks Of foot
wear that will insure WashinE Eton's i'm
munity from the general advance in
prices for at least six months.
we shall not charge more than the
present prices until we have to-" said
Joseph Berberich yesterday. II have
bought and contracted for enough shoes
to supply the demand OF our customers
for some time. During the forty-seven
years have been in business the people
Of Washington have given my store their
patronage. At this crisis steps have
been taken to take care of our custom
ers. Our store was stocked while shoe
prices were low. Washington probably
is the only city in the country where the
rise in prices will not be felt
The certainty OF the price advance Is
unquestioned, packer native hides being
quoted in Chicago recently at the record
breaking price of y cents for the De-
cember kill. Twenty years ago these
same hides sold at cents: six years
ago the price was as low as 91-4 cents
The manufacturers have been forced by
the present prices TO declare the gen.
eral advance in their products.
