s. AMERICAN TRADE
Is STILL INSECURE
Exporters Must Make Credit
Concessions After War,
Say Experts. -

Americas grip on business with South
America is not SO firm as many arc dis
posed to think according to an official
Of the Bureau OF Foreign and Domestic
Commerce who is in charge Of West
ern branch.
Assertions frequently have been made
that the trade manufacturers In the
United States are enjoying will certainly
be continued after the war. by which time
America will have gained a monopoly
which all the other nations OF the world
combined will be unable to overcome.
But according to this official this
trade IL not so strongly rooted. Ameri-
cans WIN have to make an effort to do
business along the same lines as those
adopted by Europeans before the war II
they want to hold this trade he says
The opinions of prominent business men
OF Buenos Ayres voice the same belief
and are chronicled in Government re-
ports.
Concessions in credit and a plentiful
supply Of shipping will be two Of the
chief requisites to hold this trade It Is
contended.

Some Clothing Makers

c ONE manufacturers OF cloth
ing are taking advantage
~ OF war conditions and slight
Ing workmanship, according to one
buyer OF large quantities OF cloth
ing And not only Is this cir
cumstance making II hard for the
retail clothier. he said. but high
prices and poor merchandise also
enter into the equation.
Formerly when I bought clothing
was able to work UP considerable
amount OF enthusiasm over nv
wares" he stated, land was able
to instill that enthusiasm into my
statesmen, but there Is nothing to
enthuse over in the goods we are
getting now. Every time I sell a
suit OF clothes feel like a gold
brick salesman. because I know that
the value isn't there"

SILK Dealers Opinions Divide.

Retailers OF silk goods are somewhat
divided In their opinions concerning
business in the near future. A good de-
mand is expected by some, while others
believe sales are likely to fall OF. The
hopes of the optimists are based on
belief that customers returning from
vacations will enliven the market. They
rely on the new fall styles to attract
trade.
During the last week business was
dull. Sales in any volume were ex-
ceptionally scarce, and only routine
trade kept the market moving at all.

Yarn Market Dull.

The belief that there will be down
ward revision for yarn when prices are
fixed has caused inquirers in the market
to be advised to wait until the price
fixing committee gets through with its
work before rushing to buy. Some few
sellers, however. have been selling at
prices subject to change as the result of
the revision.
Manufacturers are mostly we'll COW
cred and therefore are not hasty to
make contracts until matters reach a
more definite stage. Many OF them are
not even answering inquiries. Only
factors who are in urgent need Of yarn
are paying the present prices.

Uniforms Cut Into Suit Trade.

With SO many women taking UP war
work and adopting uniforms serious
situation confronts buyers for many Of
the large departments which handle
women's ready to wear. These buyers
are undecided how much the uniform
trade Is going to cut into their usual
business OF regular dresses and suits,
and they are debating Just what sort OF
stock is going to have the call with their
feminine patrons
Discussing the prospective fall gar
ment trade an official OF large estab-
lishment said that civilian suits would
be worn by a great many Of the women
In war service. Another merchant held
that with the uniform for women becom-
ing so universal many OF them would
dispense with the regular walking suit.

Mourning Millinery a Feature.

Mourning millinery holds practically
to the same narrow lines In each sue
cessive season, There is small latitude
for differences in makeup. Trimmings
must be subdued and dignifed and
shapes cannot boast 'snappiness" of
design that is possible with the regula-
ton hat.
Some French models on display this
season, however. have that air OF dis
tinctive smartness that is so sought az
ter without losing any OF the semblance
Of mourning, One of these has a double
flange Of English crepe on a medium
georgette brim. and a little cloche Is
covered by wide betting ribbon. used
around the crown in several rows and In
vertical stripes for the brim.
