tail Retail Business Jobbers
Had Busy Week.

The hottest weather Of the season
! naturally had some effect upon the
/ shoppers last week, and kept many @:

! their homes. Then there came a holi-
daH1 when practically all Of the retail
stores were closed. majority OF them
for the entire day and the others for
! half Of the day.
1t was due 10 these facts that the
retail business done last week was
something lighter than the week be-
fore, but the. People who did not VEN
ture out because of the heat and those
who could not buy on Thursday. the
holiday! have simply postponed their
trading ana buying. and il is probable
that they viii be GU; in full force this
week. Anyhow. the retailers are pre-
pared for something OF a rush this
week. whether il comes or not.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN
The Things in Ores, md Fur Lines
They May Look for Next
Autumn.

An authority on the subject writes
from New York:
Among women's garment manufac-
turers attention is conferred chiefly on
the early fall lines In suits. the call
thus far has been for the tailored kind
In silver tone velours and oxfords The
use of fur as trimming is fairly gen
eraL Sport suits continue in good de-
mand. with the preference largely for
those made OF jersey. and OF check We
ours.
Dress manufacturers continue very
busy on cotton dresses. Some houses
have made showings of serge and jer-
seE dresses. and these have been pur-
chased freely. There is still CO., sid :
cradle activity in cotton waists " lists
for fall have begun TO make their ap-
pearance
In separate skirts the principal activ-
ity has been in those made of washable
materials. The newest offerings by
skirt houses are of plaids and stripes
in woolcnS and tanctas.
Everything in furs is selling freely.
The principal demand in fur coats is
for medium priced goods. but there is
also A considerable call for the better
grades. Fur dealers and fur nanufac-
tprers agree that all indications point

Iron md steel Capacity Enlarged

According TO Dun's Review. extension
and enlargement of producing facilities
In the iron and steel industry reflect the
pressure of war requirements. and re-
adjustments in less essential lines are
becoming a more conspicuous feature.
With frecr supplies of fuel. the. situa-
ton favors maximum operations and
next weeks figures OF pig iron output
are expected to show a continuance
OF the gain which set in last February
While there are heavy government de-
mands on the pig iron furnaces. ship
plate needs take precedence over all
other business and are Of such magni-
tude as to call for a full three months
output. Included in the new conStruc-
ton already under way or in contem-
plation are two additional Shipyards.

evidently the intention of the Elmer

his provision imposing eight hours OF

as an amendment to the agricultural
bill
''PatriOtIe Motive,
This would never have occurred
but for the war, and Mr.. Borland's
ingenious playing up OF the patriotic
motive. His previous arguments have
been based upon unsubstantiated
charges OF special privileges enjoyed
by Federal employees and inefficiency
and Incidence on their part.
After numerous defeats he aban-
dons this ground and urges that the
shortage of clerical help In the de-
partments at Washington demands
the eight-hour working day.
"In view OF the efforts being made
at the present time to maintain eX-
listing standards CT labor during the
war, Mr.. Borland's attempt TO impose
a longer working day on Federal en-
ployes can be classed only as a reac-
tionary measure. the effect Of which
will be to hinder rather than help
