COlOred shoes Hold On.

The shoe men. who are really con-
cerned about the new Government regu-
lations, are those who have thrived dur
Ing the past two years on the extreme
novelty shoes, says Ben Jacobson of Nc
Elwa!n. Morse & Rogers. Some Of these
manufacturers are preparing to cut up
all the novelty feathers before October
] and have the uppers ready to pull
over the desired lasts. Others say they
will be able to produce many novelty
styles even with the limited supply of
shoes. One OF the leaders OF novelty
shoes has in his possession now nine diff
ferent shades of brown and tan feathers
and is only waiting for a ruling from
Washington before he begins to take
samples. At present each tanner is al
lowed to make two shades-a dark and
a light brown or tan.
There will be plenty OF grays and
other shades in the market for at least
SIX months. Barring changes in color
OF women's shoes there will be very few
changes in styles for next spring. Mems
browns will be as good AS ever. with the
tendency toward dropping the extreme
narrow toes. Womens pumps have not
sold as well as expected. but trimmed
with buckle they are likely to at
tract good buying.
