Active Buying of Raw
Silk for Future Delivery

Buying of raw silks was renewed
yesterday, liberal orders being placed
for delivery during the month of
August, and some of the manufac-
turers of silk fabrics bought the raw
material for delivery in September.
While the producers of dress silks,
ribbons and neckwear participated in
the transactions, it was asserted that
the hosiery concerns figured most
largely. To get choice grades of raw
silk for prompt use consumers had to
resort to much shopping among the
importers. 1t was reported that 1000
bales of Japanese silk arrived on the
steamship Empress of Russia, which
put in at San Francisco Thursday. The
new consignment will be rushed over
land to New York as speedily as
possible.
Tussah or wild silk also was bought
on large scale by the cotton mill
trade as we'll as by manufacturers of
electrical insulations.

Patriotism Ciues' Way to
Fashion IN Fur Trade
American Women, No Longer Regarding Thrift as
Virtue, Will Array Themselves in the Finest
of Garments That the M ar ke Affords

WOMEN of fashion, who during the
w war practiced frugality from a
sense of patriotic duty, are already
making known their intention of array
ing themselves during the coming fall
and winter season in the best that fur
riers have to offer regardless of cost.
"The fur market" A. C. Bishop,
manager for H. jacket & Sons, said
yesterday, "is constantly trading up.
BY that l mean people are buying more
expensive furs. The tendency is to
drift away from staples, such as Hud-
son seal coats and wraps, in which the
bulk of the business in dollars and
cents has centred in recent years, and
next fall | expect to see the relatively
more expensive furs sold in larger
numbers than ever before, although
prices are mounting every day.
During the war our wealthiest Gus
toners economical. Many of them
brought in their old fur wraps to be
repaired and remodeled. we consider

100000 Lbs. of Wool Sold
Australian Fleece Goes Well at
Government Auction

BOSTON, June 6.Large purchases
of good So to COS crossbred Australian
wool we're the chief features of the
government auction here to-day. Such
woods sold in volume at prices around
$1.70 clean basis. At this price the
Amo oskeag Manufacturing Company and
the Atlantic Mills were large pur-
chasers. The bidding was under better
control than at the previous sales of
crossbred wools, and prices generally
were nearer the minimums established
by the government.
Altogether four million pounds of
Australian wools were offered. Fine
Australian merinos were in strong de-
mand. The Krieglinger Company,
Wanskuck Mills and the Woonsocket
Worsted Mills were the heaviest pur-
chasers of these. Choice 64-7Os sold
as high as 1925 pound. The Krieg-
linger Company took ninety-five bales
at this record price. The Woonsocket
Worsted Mills paid S2.02 a pound for
shafty top making 70s.

Rubber
Orders for Drug Sundries
Being Placed More
Freely

Retailers and jobbers of rubber drug
sundries are placing orders more
freely, according to manufacturers
Bathing caps especially are in demand
1t is said that the retailers and job
bers are carrying small stocks of mer-
chandse as the result of feeling that
has prevailed in the trade for weeks
past that lower prices would be an
nounced by the rubber goods makers.
AS these reductions have not been
Forthcoming, the tradesmen are pac-
ing orders with greater frequency
These orders chiefly cover small guam
tity purchases, but the manufacturers
say they will become larger when it is
generally recognized that it will not be
possible for some time at least to buy
at lower prices.

it unpatriotic to buy furs now they all
said. But since the ending of hostil-
tiles these people have felt freer to
spend their money as they see fit.
Some Of them bought new furs last
winter and spring Still more will buy
during the coming season. Many are
buying right now and so long as this
demand continues in force there is lit
tie chance of prices taking drop.
There is an actual shortage of furs
at present and even if the supply were
larger than it is, it still would fall
short of the unprecedented demand
Retailers are beginning to anticipate
their demands for next fall, Mr.. Bishop
said, by placing orders for some of the
merchandise they will need. The real
buying season, he added, is not ex-
pected to begin before the middle Of
July and the Paris importations of
fall models and copies and adaptations
of them will not be shown before Au-
gust or September.

Merchandising on Steady
Basis the Country Over

Taking the country as whole all
phases of merchandising remained un-
changed during the past week, as is
indicated by the subjoined table,
which shows the relative fluctuations
of merchandising activities based on
reports made to the Credit Clearing
House. More than 10000 separate
transactions, totaling over $4,000 900,
are reviewed weekly for the purpose
of determining these fluctuations. The
plus sign indicates greater activity,
the minus sign less activity.
The Middle Agricultural Section
shows new record in payment activity
for the week and the East Section
shows the lowest indebtedness re
corded. Payments have been excellent
during the last week in all except the
Pacific Coast and Mountain Sections.
Indebtedness remains unusually low
and purchases, while not equal to last
year, are greater than the correspond
ing week of 1915 and 1917.

his oracularity, doubtless the bust
ness could be settled speedily. But
so far he has refused, and Italy, the
partner in the war that risked so
much, suffered so much, can hardly
be asked to go to war against man
who combines in his spirit Garibaldi
and Byron, and compel Italians to
accept an alien domination. Even
though Indifferent to Italy's claims,
ne should at least be able to real
ize the injury being wrought to his
own country. Various episodes
have revealed clearly growing
antagonism to the United States on
the part of nation that was
anxious for our aid and friendship.
The President has deeply wounded
Italian sensibilities, he has touched
Italian patriotism on the raw-and
all for what? This Fiume business
has been sorry mess for all the
Allies, but for us sorriest of all.

Unionists and Unionists

The compromise proposed for the
settlement of the pressmen's strike
included the item that the members
OF the local unions who went out on
an unauthorized strike should be re-
celved back into full union fellow
ship; hence, be at liberty, having
failed in their frontal attacks, to
bore" from within. To this Presi-
dent Berry of the International
Printing Pressmen's and Assistants
Union has replied:
Under no conditions will the Inter
national Printing Pressmen's and AS
sistants' Union agree to the PROPOSE
: ton of having the local unions in
New York City differed by men who
believe in direct action, who disre-
gard contracts and who refuse arbi-
tration as means Of adjusting indus
trial disputes. The only guarantee
for stability of the industry for the
future, as regards trade union prin-
ciples and sanity in the printing in
dustry, is for the men of the press
rooms to repudiate unqualifedly the
Bolshevist leadership responsible for
this disastrous conflict in New Yorl.
City"
Those are the words of a union
man addressing other unions. 1t is
worth while for those who are led
into an extreme anti-union attitude
to remember them. 1t is a mistake
to assume that the noisy and hasty
radical elements represent the ma
jority Of unionists. The sound men
for the most part repudiate the con-
tract breakers and the direct action
lists, and stick by the time-tried prin-
ciples and practices of sane union
ism.
The integrity of contracts, the
arbitration principle, government by
law and not by force-these things
are to the interest of labor-repre-
sent victories for the wage worker.
If they are lost or weakened through
pursuit of insensate folly, it will be
necessary for other generations of
wage workers to struggle to re-
establish them.

A Police Mystery

Traffic Patrolman Thomas A.
Mckay, stationed for eight years at
Broadway and Chambers Street,
where he performed his work eff
GENTLY and became known to hun
dreds of motorists, has been trans
ferred to patrol duty and assigned
to the Liberty Avenue station, in
Brownsville, by order of Commits
sioner Enright. No reason is given
by the Commissioner. When the Com
missioner denoted Daniel Costigan
from inspector to captain and dis
solved the vice squad he offered the
tardy excuse that Costigan's record
of arrests was poor, but he recanted
when faced with figures that con-
tradicted those he had given out. So
this time there is cautiously no ex-
PLANTATION.
The transfer Of a policeman from
the traffic squad to patrol duty is
mere routine in police administra-
ton, but McKay's case stands out
because he is vice-president of the
Traffic Squad Association and a
delegate to the Patrolmen's Benevo-
lent Association from Precinct A,
and is said to have spoken favorably
of Major La Guardia's candidacy
for President Of the Board Of Alder
men. Major La Guardia during the
campaign charged the Police Com
missioner with wreaking vengeance
on those whom he disfavored for
personal or political reasons. If the
Commissioner has used his power
as weapon upon Mckay either be-
cause Mckay was an advocate Of a
$4,000 minimum pay for policemen
or favorably inclined toward La
Guardia, who frankly agreed with
the policemen's and tiremen's pay
demands, the city has another de-
plorable example Of petty tyranny
that menaces police morale and
weakens lingering confidence in the
conduct of the department.
Commissioner Enrlght, in the an
nual police report, wrote some pretty
words of thanks to the Mayor about
being permitted to run the depart
ment without interference If the
Mayor had no hand in the transfer
Of Mckay, perhaps he will be will
ing to ask the Commissioner why
this policeman was assigned to other
duties and make public the reply.
He need not fear the public may
deem the matter too slight to be of
interest.
