CITY EMPLOYEES
NAY co TO CAMP
MayorDirects Department Heads
TO Allow Time for Training.

Mayor Mitchell is anxious 20 have all
city employees who are so disposed take
advantage OF the four weeks military
training in the summer camp. He sent
a letter yesterday 10 the heads OF de-
partments informing them that when
ever the work would permit employees
would be allowed eleven days of vaca-
tion beyond the four weeks required
for the camp training Most Of the
city employees nave from three TO four
weeks regular vacation, and the May
cr's suggestion merely extends this
period eleven days with pay. The
Mayors letter to the heads Of depart
ments reads:
81 suggest TO you that you make in
quiry among your employees to learn
how many will desire TO attend the
training camps and advise them that if
the work Of the department permits a
vacation of eleven working days in
addition to the period OF four weeks
I for training will be granted to men
who wish TO attend the camps for the
entire period and take the full course
Of training This will permit advantage
tc be taken Of the Saturday half holt
days and Sundays at the beginning and
end of this period Of eleven days.
Members OF the national guard or
naval militia will be permitted TO at
| tend the encampments and schools pre-
scribed for their instruction as pro-
vided BY law without any deduction
! from their vacations Of three weeks.
/ This would not permit national guards
men or naval militismcn TO attend the
/ Plattsburg camp except in the event
Of their organizations not being or
/ derod to camp this summer, or II they
| did not attend other schools OF in
| struction prescribed By the War De-
partment for national guardsmen or
naval miltamen.
/ az. however. these special schools
are held in lieu OF regular encampments
or schools, city employees should be
permitted TO attend such special schools
without deduction from their vacation
/ allowance. You should, of course,
grant any leave OF absence in accord
ance with these suggestions only after
consideration OF the needs and require
m ents of your department.

WEEKL X REVIEW OF TRADE
Manufacturers Inspired by Good Business Plenty Of Money
High Prices Activity in Industries Increased Wages,
Improved Collections and Excellent Trade Outlook.

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York. Jan, n.-Bradstreets re-
view of trade for the current week to-
morrow will say: .
Good business. plenty OF money. high
prices. activity in Industry, improved
collections. increase in wages, cold
weather. and anticipation of extraordi-
nary business this coming spring, has in
spired manufacturers.
Cold weather over a wide area has
hampered in some interior regions of the
Southwest likewise delayed railway
operations and mail deliveries, but in
the larger sense the meteorological con-
ditions have acted as an additional tonic
to final distribution.
In consequence, heavyweight goods
have moved from the hands of retail
dealers In fun volume, and, aided by
seasonal clearance sales. stocks have
been further reduced
Sales of drygoods for future delivery
are exceptionally heavy, perhaps the
heaviest Noted at this season for thres
years back. and fears of deficient
supplies from mills, already backward
In making deliveries, are very general.
Incidentally. orders for immediate ac-
count are very satisfactory; road sales
are good, mail order trade is heavy,
wholesale trade, after very short holi-
day lull. Is again taking on a relatively
good pace, and jobbers find no room
for complaint about the condition of order
books.
Industry in general is employed to full
capacity, steel mills are sold six to
seven months forward. prices continue
TO soar mills are not booking far ahead
at current prices. and wages are at a
record high point.
An abundance OF money. is indicated
in easy rates.

New York. Jan. I4.-Dun's Review of
trade for the week tomorrow will say:
1t is still noteworthy that the vol
ume of business is overtaxing facili-
ties in several important lines. Though
production is at the maximum and ac-
tive capacity is being extended wher-
ever possible, in not a few Instances
demand exceeds supply. and inability
to obtain prompt deliveries lie caus-
ing more frequent complaint The la
Dor situation. both in respect to actual
controversies and difficulty in secur-

are necessary to cope with the press

No single struggle of great magni-

strikes as occur are usually quickly
settled. Much larger pay rolls are tffe
rule and naturally add materially to
the ability of the people to purchase,
and tend TO offset the enhanced cost
of commodities. buying showing no
abatement in spite of the fact that
prices are at the highest level in sew
eral decades.
Following the notable expansion or
the three preceding months, the value
of building permits at eighty-fve

creased 1872 per cent over the cor
