Problem Solution
Z. 5. Chamber of Commerce
Asked to Submit National
Transportation B oard
Plan to Business Men

A call for the registration of opinion
by business men throughout the coun-
try on the transportation problem was
made public yesterday by the Cham
Der of Commerce Of the State of New
York. The call sets forth a statement
referendum by the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States. These
principles, adopted by committee
headed by H. H. Merrick, president of
the Chicago Association of Commerce
will be submitted to Congress if ap-
proved.
They call for the creation of trans
portation board empowered to de-
termine and compel adequate trans
portation through coordination Of
rail, water and highway facilities, de-
termine financial requirements Of the
carriers, certify the revenue required
regulate wages and conditions of la
Dor and exercise final authority over
consultations and security issues.
DEGREES Mandatory
1t is set forth that the certificate
of the transportation board be man
datory- upon the Interstate Commerce
Commission as to amount of revenue
to be produced.
Further articles in the statement of
principles follow:
"Authorty for the Interstate Com
merce Commission to regulate maxi.
mum as we'll as minimum rates, with
jurisdiction over all rates and instru
mentalities of interstate commerce.
"Revision of the traffic provisions

Leather

Because of the shortage of all kinds
of high grade leather, manufacturers
of pocketbooks, handbags, gloves and
trunks are refusing immediate deliv-
cry. Some of them have even gone so
TAR as to refuse any orders for de-
livery before the first of December.
Sealskin, sheepskin, goatskin and cha
mois supplies are limited and several
American companies have sent repre-
sentatives to Europe in search of this
leather.
Owing partly to this shortage of
leather and partly to labor troubles
manufacturers of shoes and gloves as
sert that higher prices are bound to
come. The shortage is being felt the
world over and the situation reached
the point where domestic buying
meets foreign buying with the highest
bidder getting the goods.
Factories of high grade leather
goods manufacturers are so far behind
on their regular winter business that
little attention is being paid to the
Christmas holiday orders which are
piling in. Although prices in all lines
of the leather trade have advanced
from time to time these increases have
not curtailed purchases to any extent.
The supply of the better grade of
calfskins continues short of the de-
mand and the market closed firm last
week, with sellers asking SIPS for
8 to ~ pounds and $1O25 for to 8
pounds. The prices are slightly high
er than buyers are willing to pay. and
consequently business is at a stand
| still

Apparel

Retailers flocked to the market last
week to place orders for mems clothing
for next spring. The first buying rush
at the opening of the wholesale season
surpassed previous years, according to
both retailers and manufacturers. With
the exception Of one or two large
houses, manufacturers are alloting
goods, and in most cases the allotments
are below the amounts retailers would
like to order. Prices range from 25 to
so per cent above fall prices.

cles in women's apparel showed a slight
Improvement last week, manufacturers
and jobbers were, not enthusiastic

Woolens

A softening of the prices of over

the woolen goods market last week.
The explanation for this lay in the
fact that production exceeded expecta-
tions and clothing manufacturers
were fairly we'll supplied earlier in
the season. Also, the labor situation

Fllrs

Quiet prevailed last week in all
branches of the fur trade. Manufac-
turing furriers bought comparatively
little from the raw skin dealers. Re
tallers in turn placed few orders with
the manufacturers. Most of the trade
is inclined to attribute the present lac +,
of activity to the warm weather that
has continued up to this week. Road
statesmen in from their trips report re-
tallers as we'll stocked with furs and
unlikely to do more heavy purchasing.
Despite the inactivity, fur manufac-
turers have not shaded their prices to
induce buying except in rare cases.
They believe general shortage of
furs exists and that prices will hold
firm at present levels throughout next
year. This gives them confidence to
hold over raw furs or finished gar
ments until next season.

nave not been used as freely as in
normal times. -
:, MN agents reported a growing pro
tall and winter use are being delivered
IN fair quantities to manufacturers Of
mems and women's apparel and retail
ers. The demand for the better class
OF worsted goods continued to lead the
market. Tricotnes and serges were
IN strong demand, with the supply ex-
tremely short. Jobbers are reported
TO be getting brilliantly high prices
tor sergcs. Reailers report an ex-
traordlnary demand for scrges through
out the country.
Allotments Of both mems and
women's wear fabrics for spring are
about finished now. Apparel manufact
urers say they have not been able to
acquire enough for their actual needs.
Some of the women's wear mills are
taking business only two months
ahead, preferring to work as closely
to the present as possible in the face
of unsettled labor conditions.
