JEWELRY-Europe Far
Behind on Jemeiry Orders

Importers of precious stones and jew
elry are rot doing large business at
present in this market, owing 30 the
difficulty they are having in procuring
goods abroad. Stocks on hand. it is re-
ported are extremely low and the hope
of large receipts in the near future has
been abandoned. The demand for for
eign jewelry is strong dealers stating
they can readily dispose Of all stocks
they have on their shelves.
Importers ascribe the delay in filing
orders for jewelry abroad to the gem
eral economic unsettlement in Europe.
They state that strikes in all trades, in
cluding the jewellers, have been recur
ring with greater frequency in fore ign
markets than in this country. In ad-
dltion, serious shortage Of coal has
forced many factories to shut their
doors two or three days a week.
AS little jewelry was manufactured
during the war. European dealers ART
now asked to satisfy an unusual de-
na1d which has caused the riling up Of
orders for months ahead. Because II
this situation European manufacturers
it is said, have refused price lists and
accept orders subject to = yrket price
at the time of delivery. Prices, dealers
state fuctuate from day to day, so tHal
the market for imported jewery re-
semblcs the stock exchange. This situ-
alton has caused a feeling OF uncer-
tainty in the trade.
Buyers arc cautious about purchases,
and in some instances prefer to carry
lines of domestic jewelry rather than
buy foreign goods.

peani sources is said to be confined to

The limited purchasing which con-

to the fact that manufacturers here

were about 81 a pound under present
quotations. Buying now simply main

confident that its volume will ma

Aid of Foreign Governments
To Improve Cable Service

In furtherance OF its efforts to i'm
prove the cable communications to the
United States the National Foreign
Trade Council has written to the
American Chamber of Commerce in
Europe asking them to urge trade or
ganizations abroad to petition the
governments in the countries where
they are located to cut out all un-
necessary use of the cables for gov
erninent messages and to eld pre-
ceden.e, wherever possible. TO i'm
portant commercial messages

said. can be- induced 20 cut Gown the
enormous number Of government
cables Which they are sending there
would De much greater opportunity
for the transmission of important
commercial leteers. Part blame for the
present cable congestion is laid to toe
breakdown of the Mediterranean Indian
Ocean system, thus necessitating the
sending of messages across the Pacific.

Dress Industry Prosperous
Increased Production Needed.
Saws David Mosessohn

Manufacturers of house dresses,
aprons, etc, in New York and other

production or find themselves out
stripped by makers Of these garments

Dress Industries Of America Mr.
Mosessohn has just returned from a
business trip through the country
which took hin as far as the Pacific
Coast.

IN the midst Of one Of the most pros
porous periods in the history Of the

facturers have more work than they
can possibly take care Of. and the re-
tail business is booming on IL sides.
While the labor situation is the
same in every market, reports show
ing scarcity Of skilled mechanics,
there is d need for more production.

Nearly All Spring Goods
Being Sold by the Allot-

ton for Serge Shortage

Serges and other fine twilled goods
for immediate and spring use con-
tinu to be the most sought fabrics
in the woollen goods markets, with
the available supply relatively the
smallect from which the trade has
ever had to make selections. The
fac that the American Woollen Com
pany, in is spring opening last month.
eliminated serges and other staple.
from the list of offerings has led
jobbers and clothing manufacturers
to anticipate a still greater shortage
than exists at present
An explanation of the serge short
age was offered by leading mill
agent yesterday. He cited the fact
that most of the serges for mems wear
are made in the three mills Of the
American Woolen Company. the
Pacific mills, the Arlington mills and
other smaller factories in Lawrence,
Mass where production was held up
for fourteen weeks by strike. The
American Woollen Company alone has
1000 looms in Lawrence, capable of
turning out two and one-ralf pieces o.
cloth apiece per week, it is said. With
these looms idle for fourteen weeks
production of 100000 pieces of cloth
mostly serge, was lost for the fall
season by this one company. It is
believed that the total less Of mems
wear serge production At Lawrence
and of fine serges and other twilled
goods at Passaic. N. j., during the
strik4 there amounts to close to 300
600 pieces of goods These mills arc
said to have thousands of pieces Of
serge on order still undelivered. This
situation is offered as an explana-
tion of the elimination of serges
from the American spring line.
