THE AMERICAN IS SELLING OUT.

The American selling himself out of business In some
lines this is virtually true and especially is 1t pronounced
fact as regards the leather market According to trade reports
the leather market at the present time in the most unsats
factory condition possible This due to high prices and the
scarcity of hides The expectation of hides and leather
goods the past few months has hit high point English
buyers bought all the Wet Sailed South American Packer hides
taken off up to April 1917 Two weeks ago Russia bought
100000 sides, 100000 worth of sole leather Japan has
bought $4,000 sides to make Russian army boots The result
of these larger shipments may mean that shoe factories Will
have to close down within the next months for want OF ea
er In the meantime citizens are having to pay all the
is rising daily Leather dealers and shoe manufacturers
cannot prices for longer time than day to the next
and then filling orders is uncertainty
The leather situation is only indication OF the effect
the European and the consequent rush OF supplies from
this county to the allies having upon industrial life at
home
Since the American manufacturer and the producer OF the
materials started selling out at home have continued
to RISE until they have scared to such dizzy heights that
only those directly interested supplying the war demand can
afford to smile spite of the high cost OF existence An embar
90 the necessaes of life ght be the OF bringing
prices back to their former level and keeping them somewhere
within reason.
Now that about to get in direct transportation COM
