PETUS TO MANUFACTURING
DRY GOODS, SAYS EUGENE
McGOVERN.

American manufacturers of dry
goods are preparing to greatly in
crease their facilities for business,
according to Eugene McGovern, who
has just returned from an extended
buying trip in New York City and
other eastern points. This step will
be necessary on account of the
troubled conditions in Europe.
Although it will be several months
before the factories can be eqquip-
ped" said Mr.. McGovern, 1.-THE time
is coming when most of the dress
goods worn in this country will be
made in America. The war in Eu-
rope has completely shut off the inn
portation of the finer class Of goods
and American manufacturers are
preparing to meet the demand.
IF the war should not last for
more than six months, it will be
many years before the foreign manu-
%facturers r in shape to continue
business. 1T will be easy enough to
equip their factories again, but
their skilled workmen are now in the
armies and to supply their places is
almost impossible. And by the time
Europe is making goods again, l be-
iieve that we will be capable of max
ing them ourselves.
THE war also is bound to work
in favor of American styles and
modes, a tendency which has been
noted considerably in the past year

REBUILDING GALE
PLAN is REVIVED
SPECIAL COMMERCIAL CLUB
COMMITTEE RECEIVES NEW
PROPOSITION FROM AN
DERSON LUMBER co.

Favorable consideration has been
given a new proposition for the re-
building of the Gale theatre build
Ing, submitted yesterday to the spec
ial committee OF the Commercial club
by the officials OF the j. T. Anderson
Lumber company, owner of the burn
ed structure.
Roughly, the plan involves the re-
building the theater on practically
its original lines for a bonus of So
900. The Commercial club would be
given the privilege of a benefit en-
tertainment on the opening night of
the theater to raise a portion of the
money needed to finance the scheme.
Plans now being shaped for
the owners of the theater building
provide for the rebuilding of the
theater auditorium on the original
plans, except that the upper gallery
would be eliminated and the bal
cony would be made larger. BY a
different arrangement of the seating
on the main floor and the balcony, it
Is believed that nearly the same
seating capacity as in the old theatre
can be obtained.
The committee was inclined to
view the new proposition very fav-
orably and will report to the Com
mercial club soon. The general sen
timent of the members of the COM
mittee was that the location of the
theater and the feasibility of re
building the burned structure was
enough to create a public sentiment
In favor OF the new proposition
which was regarded as a liberal one
In case the scheme to rebuild the
theater is adopted, nothing further
will be done on the project to re
model the city hall auditorium into 9
municipal theater, which had beer
favorably reported on by n specfa
committee of the city council.
The officers of the lumber com
pany outlined tentative plans for re
building. 1t is not planned to have
the building more than two storie,
high, rs this would not be ~necessar,
with no upper gallery in the theater
The first floor front would be usec
for store-rooms and the second foo.
for office purposes.
