THE BANKING
/"
SITUATION IS so
! UNFAVORAbLE
That British Manufac-
turers Claim T h y
Are Unable to Step in
and Grab the Trade

Held by the Germans.
ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence. )

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
London, Oct. 11.-Commercial leagues
and associations throughout England
are making much ado about capturing
German trade. Manufacturers declare
that the banking situation Is SO un-
favorable that English firms eapnos
be expected to attempt an aggressive
export business.
extension of foreign trade e manu-
facturer produced letters from his
banker which are said 70 be typical of
the position of London sanking houses.
The manufacturer had asked for q
cash advance on shipment to for
eign customer with whom the manu-
facturer had dealt for years. The bill
of exchange. the goods and the good
name of the manufacturer We're all
offered as security. yet the banker re-
piled that his institution did not care
for that sort of business.
If British manufacturers cannot dis
count their bills they say a curtailment
rather than an expansion of foreign
business will be imperative. and the
London Board of Trade has been SO
advised by scores OF manufacturers.
Still the manufacturers have not been
discouraged by the unfavorable finan-
cial conditions are endeavoring to
duplicate articles which have hitherto
been supplied by the Germans and
Austrians.
At present a glass and pottery ex-
hibition is in progress under auspices
of the Commercial Intelligence Branch
of the Board of Trade. Samples of all
sorts Of pottery and glassware former
ly sent to England from the two coun-
tries now at war with Great Britain
are on exhibition. This exhibition is
primarily for the benefit of English
manufacturers who are supplied with
full information as to the quantities
of such ware Germany and Austria
have been selling to English subjects.
A similar exhibition was held at
which toys and games formerly sup
piled to England by it's enemies were
shown, But the pottery and glass
field is a more inviting one and the
English factories are all ready trying
to duplicate many of the wares Aus
tria and Germany have produced In
great quantities for foreign trade.
The shortage of potash Is serious
handicap to the production of test
tubes, TASKS and other glass equipment
for use in laboratories. Strangely
enough England has relied almost ex-
clusively on Germany for such mater
ials and has never tried to produce
them.
English manufacturers of glassware
have specialized in the production OF
extensive cut glass and have allowed
Germany to monopolize the production
of cheaper grades. As q consequence
there is shortage of skilled labor in
England for glass working.
Several English firms have already
entered upon the manufacture of dolls'
heads with considerable success and
are said to have produced samples far
superior to those manufactured in
Austria. Before Christmas England
will doubtless have q good supply Of

A DECIDED SUCCESS
Tinker's Singing Orchestra Enter

The dance given Saturday evening
at City hall by Tinker's Singing Or
chestra was a complete success In
every way. Tho attendance was large
and from s o'clock until midnight many
young people enjoyed themselves. The
orchestra, composed of musicians of
rare merit, needs no introduction to
an Augusta audience. as it won count
less admirers during its appearance
at Island Park last summer and aside
from its novelty as musical organi-
cation the music furnished for dane
ing was all that could be desired.
