SHOES TO COST MORE
As LEATHER ADVANCES
Prices on New Deliveries Mean In
creased Cost to Retailer Who
Must Collect from Consumer.
SOME REAsoNs FOR ADyANCE.
Mexico Merchants Have Been Hold
ing Down the Price as Long as
They Could for their Customers.

The leather market is practically
paralyzed and prices for shoes are
making spectacular advances Al
ready you have felt the result OF these
conditions and manufacturer, retail
er and consumer must look these
facts squarely in the face. The time
to buy your shoes and save money IS
now. II you would profit by NJ adj
vice we suggest you read this ar
Iticle and secure a full understanding
of the true conditions regarding foot
wear.
Europe has stripped America OF
most Of its leather. With not half
enough for ourselves 49, the demand
from across the water is fer more,
MORE. M-o-R-El You can appre-
'eiate how desperate the situation is
when we tell you that a foreign gov
eminent recently laid down FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS IN COLD
CASH before one of the biggest
tanners in the United States and said;
."Give US as much sole leather for that
as you can"
They did not specify the amount
they wanted for their money but
as much as it would get for them.
And now they are trying to duplicate
that order and can't The quantity
is simply not to be had.
In order to get half enough leather
for their own needs, American shoe
manufacturers have had to pay as
high a price for leather to the leather
manufacturers as the nations of Eu-
rope were willing to pay.
This is what happened: The shoe
manufacturers simply had to pass the
increases in price to the wholesaler;
the wholesaler in turn passed it to the
dealer and the dealer must increase
his price to keep alive.
Shoes in Mexico have been selling
much cheaper than in many other
cities. The dealers have made every
effort to hold the price down but with
the next shipment of shoes, those con-
t-acted for at an advanced price over
last falls purchases, the price must
again advance.
The wise buyer, the one who desires
to make his money go as far as pos
sible in view of these unusual condi-
tons, will buy shoes before the in
crease takes effect.
