Of her toys from France. Italy and
Japan. and II is probable that in the
future American toys will also find
a good market there.
The toy manufacturers Of America
have had such an increase OF orders
since the signing OF the armistice
that the demand far exceeds their
output. Before the war there were
but seventy-one firms in the United

OF toys with an annual busiess of
