LIMIT CHRISTMAS TRADE

The Council OF National Defense
authorizes the following: The Coun-
ell of National Defense has hereto
fore emphasized the necessity OF re-
the coming fall for certain specific
reasons which 1t has stated. These
reasons are In brief the necessity OF
saving labor and material In the man.
ufacture and sale OF Christmas gifts
and OF saving the transportation and
delivery facilities necessarily involv-
ed in the large volume OF Christmas
purchases.
After conferences with representa-
tives Of the leading industries and
retail interests concerned. II is found
that the manufacture OF gods for the
coming holiday season has been sub
stantially completed, that the trans
portation of the goods to the point OF
sale Is also largely done and that
much Of the material used for Christ
mas purchases, especially In the man.
ufacture Of toys. is the waste mater
ial derived from prior processes OF
manufacture.
The retail interests represented at
the conference have agreed not to
increase their working force by rea-
son Of the holiday business over the
average force employed by them
throughout the year and not to in
crease the normal working hours OF
their force during, the Christmas sea-
son.
