THE BUSINESS DEATH RATE

Bankers express surprise at the small number of business failures that have taken place during the past year. It is remarkable that so great a readjustment of the country's business was accomplished with so little disaster.
 Thousands of small businesses have had to be closed up. Ordinarily when a business is forced to stop, the assets have to be closed out at a sacrifice. If the concern was oper- ated on borrowed capital, this fre- quently means that there is not enough money to pay the debts.
 One thing which of course has helped, is that prices are high on all kinds of merchandise. Any one who has had good stock on hand of es- sential material has been able to dis pose of it at good prices. That has helped many struggling little concerns that had to stop, to realize a fair price on their assets.
 This means a good deal to thou sands of young men who have been drafted, or who enlisted. A fellow wiz fight with good deal .lighter heart knowing that he has been able to wind up his affairs at home with out sacrifice.

standardizing of Retail Rates May Follow Scale
 Set for Shoes.

Washington, Oct +Prices and distribution of practically all articles of wearing apparel are to be controll- ed by the War Industries Board. Reg ulations issued prescribing certain fixed prices for shoes constituted only the first step in a general policy for price control of clothing.
 This was disclosed yesterday by Chairman Baruch of the board in an address at a special meeting of the National Retail Dry Goods Associa- tion. Referring to the agreement between the board and the shoe in- dustry, Mir. Baruch said:
 After that win have to come the regulation and distribution of mosi all of the things which you gentlemen have to deal with. I don't want you to say it @2nt be done, because ii must be done. It is unthinkable that only the man with the longest pocket book can get the things that he needs.
 When it comes to the question o1 a fair price that is very difficult tt answer. I should say roughly that z fair price is price something like the normal profits in normal times
