women's Garment Trade Review

It's review OF the women's garment field
tomorrow will say:
The retail demand for ready to wear
garments this week manifested marked
activity. The brisk trade induced by
favorable autumn found many retailers
stocks unequal to the demand. The
shortages that were principally noted
we're on suits and wool dresses. In con-
sequence many buyers returned to the
markets In quest OF available garments
for quick deliveries and to exert pressure
on deliveries Of back orders.
"The outlook for the procuring Of de-
sirable garments during the next few
weeks is none too promising. The Jew
ish holidays will eliminate an appreci-
able numbers of working days in Sep
tember. This. combined with the dimin-
ished ranks of garment workers. will in
crease the labor problem greatly.
Wanted materials in colors called for
are difficult to obtain and prices have
not ceased to climb In fact manufac-
turers are frequently obliged to pay ad-
vance prices for reg su1arly selling fabrics
when certain colors are urgently needed
to complete orders.
"In view of these conditions procras.
tination will prove not alone the thief of
time but also of retail profits IL favored

chants with reasonable time allowed for

OF the fall buying period were thought

the manufacturers to put up their prices
