Paint association Plans to
Establish Bureau to
Collect Essential
Information

A statistical department will in the
Immediate future be opened by the
National Paint, Oil and Varnish Asso-
citation, whose headquarters are at
100 William Street. this city The cs-
Enlistment of this department is the
result Of an agitation which was
brought to head at the annual meet
ing of the association in Boston early
last December.
The desire for such department
has been felt among the members of
the organization, which includes al
most all branches of the chemical
and color industry. for long time, but
1T was not until the United States
entered the war that the imperative
need for it was made manifest. When
this country put itself on war basis
representatives of the paint. oil and
varnish industry went to Washington
to set forth their claims for recogni-
ton as an Essential industry" 1t
was then found that facts to back up
their arguments for such recognition
were very difficult to obtain, and in
some cases could not be had at all
The headquarters organization is
now looking into the statistics gathered
by the industries allied with the as
sociation, such as facts and figures
covering the manufacture of dry pig
ment colors, shellac brushes and SINH
lar products. in order to determine
how much of the already gathered data
can be used by the new statistical de-
partment. The National Paint Oil and
Varnsh Association is the second
largest in the world. from the stand
point Of money invested in the various
branches Of the organization.

Wool Control i'm
England Relaxing
April Auction Sales By British
Government Expected to
Sci World Prices

Government control Of the wool. situa-
ton in Great Britain is relaxing to the
point where, according to recent ad-
vices from Bradford, England, dealers
expect much greater freedom of action
will be given them in couple of
months. The London sales by auction
are to be resumed early in April, While
East India wool in the near future is
to be free and by-products will also
be removed to a large extent from con-
troll. But there is reason to believe, a
correspondent Of "Common Sense'
writes, "that though those engaged in
the processes OF manufacture will re-
turn to nearly normal conditions ere
long, there will still be room for agita-
ton among those at the raw wool end
of the trade over the manner in which
the government will deal with the Aus
ttralasian Wool clips which they have
bought unHl the end of the season in
1920. Nothing will satisfy wool mer-
chants but entire liberty to handle the
Will not be restored to them for many
months yet.
ut is expected also that in addition
to selling wool by auction in London,
the Government Department will con-
tlnue to sell wool. and also, it is be-
lieved, tops, to users who wish to buy
from them direct at periodically fixed
prices. This will act as regulator of
the prices of wool and tops, and many
believe the power still remaining in the
hands OF our government officials will
enable them to dominate values not only
IN this country, but also in other parts
Of the world.
"Meanwhle wool importers have been
given free hand in relation to South
African wool, and it is stated they are
already selling at prices substantially
below our government fixed prices How
this will affect the market remains to
be seen, but it has for some time been
taken for granted that, because of the
material reduction in frcights and in
surance, as compared with those charges
prevailing before the armistice, they
Will, at the end of the present rationing
period, if not before, reduce their rxed
selling prices"

West Buying Crockcrv

Western merchants, who are op-
timistic, arc buying glassware and
crockery in better volume than Eastern
traders. Lack Of buying in the East
tends to reduce the total volume of
orders. Eastern buyers declare they
must get lower prices in order to in
duce them to trade. Manufacturers re-
tort that they are tied up with high
wage scales until next July In this
industry wages are fixed for what is
known as the period of the fire.
meaning the time during which the
pots are operated, the season usually
extending from Jannary to the end of
June.
Exporters are inquiring for prices,
but thus far little in the way of actual
orders has developed from these in
uuirics.

Movement for Standardize
Footwear in Great Britain

The boot and shoe trade associations
Of Great Britain are agitating a move
ment to standardize the manufacture
of footwear 1t is not the intention to
abolish cheap shoes, but the English
public, it seems, has been imposed
upon by producers of cheap, "adul-
terated" footwear to such an extent
that protective measures are deemed
necessary. AT present all the outdoor
boots and shoes are made under gov
crnment supervision. They are all
leather, made TO specifications ap-
proved by the civilian boot department.,
and while it is expected that this
scheme may be dropped in few
months, the hope is expressed that out
of it will grow system of providing
reliable shoes made of approved ma
terials.

Manganese Enough in
Sight for a Year

In the ferromanganese market con-
ditions are unfavorable There has
been no demand since the war ended,
and large number OF contracts have
been cancelled. Brazilian manganese
ore, contracted for during the war, is
still coming freely into the country,
although it is not needed, as thera is
sufficient manganese ore and ferro-
manganese here now to last the coun-
try at least year. Ferromanganese is
now quoted at from SITS to 5000. as
compared with a war price of $3.50,
and probably could be bought for less,
while manganese ore. sold on contract
during the war at S1.30 per unit, is
now being offered for resale at 70
cents per unit or even lower. Other
iron alloys, such as spiegeleisen and
terrosillcon, are in the same position,
there being an over supply and no de-
mand

Expect Big Season

Heads of the women's apparel de.
partments in the dry goods stores and
speciality shops are looking forward to
one of the best spring seasons they
have enjoyed in years. The buyers
say that they are having little or no
trouble in securing adequate supplies
OF merchandise despite the labor
trouble and that the spring buying
season already has set in. "The spring
business this year has begun earlier
than usual" said one buyer. land this

Manned Soldiers to
Be Farm Mechanics''
Federal Board Plans to Place
Men in Good Positions
After Training Course

WASHINGTON, Feb. lin other
days a farm mechanic" was usually
chap who could solder up the hole
IN a milk bucket, repair the pump or
paint the wagon, or tinker with the
clock. To-day the term means that he
is a highly skilled artisan, employed
as such by larger farms. In the plough
ing season he is tractor operator, en-
gineer of the motive machinery which
pulls the gang ploughs, harrows and
seeders, doing the work at one cut of
half dozen plough teams and men.
lie IS engineer and superintendent of
the reaping and thrashing in their sea-

cutting of silage and filling of silos.
He takes care of the dairy machinery
or the electric light plant of the farm.
He looks after the upkeep of the auto
mobiles and trucks of the establish
ment. Such are in general the duties
OF the "garm mechanic" for which dis
abled soldiers are being reeducated by
the United States government through
the Federal board for vocational edu-
cation. Disabled men are given a sup
port fund of $50 month while study
ing and adequate support for depen-
dents. All expenses of the course are
paid by the government.
War disabled farm boys are pre-
ferred for education along these lines,
their practical knowledge OF agricult-

getting in communication with war
disabled farm young men who would
be interested in taking training for the
farm mechanics and similar courses

Cheaper Farm Machinery
I'm Future Is Predicted

PITTSBURGH, Feb. 11.-Farm i'm
plements and agricultural vehicles will
DC cheaper in the immediate future,
according to predictions made here at
a special meeting of the National We
hicle Implement Association. The or
ganization represents all factories Of
America engaged IN the manufacture
of farm vehicles and tools.
s. W. Mccullough. of Chicago. ma
t1onal. secretary, said that the max
ing OF farm tools will be kept in prac-
tically the same line, as to varieties.
indicated by the War Industries Board
in war time, thus eliminating so pe-
cent of the old lines.
This will lead to economy in pro-
duction cost. he said, giving the
farmer cheaper implements.

Big Demand for Suits

Up until this week the number OF
dresses sold in retail stores was far
in excess Of the number of women's
suits sold through these channels. but
now the two seem to be in about equal
favor with the shoppers. According
to women's apparel buyer for one Of
the leading department. stores. this
week has seen a great stimulation in
suits. 81 think it is largely due to
the mild weather. Women who have
worn dresses and coats so far during
the winter want new street costume
and naturally turn to suits instead of
purchasing a new coat"
New-York tribune., 1919-02-12
Skirt Trade Active

Manufacturers of women's separate
skirts report brisk current business.
Retail buyers are placing large orders
for all kinds of skirts in the novelty
silks, wool plaids and other skirting
fabrics. Exceptionally heavy business
has been booked by those manufacture
ers catering to "stouts," and the manu-
facturers of children's skirts say that
spring business this year is running
much above normal
A large part of the increase in the
demand for separate skirts can be
traced to the increased outdoor activi-
ties of American women, say the manu.
facturers. For sports the separate
SKIRT and sweater or jacket form an
ideal costume.
