Retail People Kick
About Tax on Clothing
Miss Katherine and James Ryan of
BlackfOOt Attended the Con.
vention In February
REPEAL THE LUXURY TAX

| Driven to desperation by the CON-
bination of manufacturers and job
bers, who throttled the retail dry
good business, as they did nearly
every other retail business during the
war, the National Retail Dry Goods
association called for a large at
tendance at its convention in New
York this year, and the call was
answered from Atlantic to Pacific.
On the closing night of the meet
ing a resolution was adopted, backed
by 10000 retail dry goods mer-
| chants, urging congress to strike
from the revenue bill, which already
had passed, the clause which placed
luxury tax on women's garments re-
failing at more than $40, ladies'
hats, retailing at more than SO,
ladies' hosiery retailing at more than
81, mems garments retailing at more
than $40, mems hats retailing at
more than IS, mems and women's
shoes and sundry other articles of
wearing apparel
When the resolution was received
in Washington it was too late to
amend the bill, but a special resolu-
ton was adopted by congress ex-
empting the articles mentioned from
the luxury tax list.
The retailers decided to probe the
methods of the manufacturers and
jobbers and tear the profiteers away
from their great root and branch.
The work outlined by the associa-
ton for the coming year is expected
to put stop to much of the profiteer-
ing and to have a tendency to make
prices conform with supply and de-
mand instead of with the wishes of
a combination of wholesale price
fixers.
The convention, which was held in
New York Feb. II to 10, is declared
by Nugent's magazine to have been
the greatest assembly of Americas
merchandising leaders ever gathered
together. Other dry goods trade
magazines devoted large space to &C.
counts of the gathering and publish
pictures Of the banquet in the grand
ball room of the. New Pennsylvania
hotel, New York. The banquet was
attended by 1000 retail merchants.
Among those attending the conven-
tion and banquet were Miss Kath-
crime and James Ryan of the Golden
Rule chain of stores.
The convention subscribed fund
of 100000 for legislative and legal
purposes to carry out the fight it is
making for fair wholesale prices.

Decoration Day passed Off very quiet
ly in Seaford Members OF Captain
IIydrlck Post. G. A. r., paraded from
their hall TO the different cemeteries in
and near the town and placed flowers
on the graves OF their departed com
rades. The ministers OF the town made
appropriate addresses. The town was
patrlOtically decorated. In the after
noon the Seaford baseball team jour-
neyed to Salisbury and played a game
with the team OF that town.
The pea canneries OF GTeenabaum
Bros and r. C. Ross. which annually
put up millions OF cans OF peas, will
begin operations next week, but the
pack this year will fall far short Of
what 10 usually is, owing TO the fact
that many farmers have plowed up
their crops OF peas and planted some
thing else in their place. This condl-
tion was brought about by the fact that
early In the season the pea louise got
into the vines and practically destroy
ed them. Another drawback to the
vines happened early in the season
when a hard wind came and blew con-
siderable sand against them, badly cut
ting the tender vines.
The Want Ads offer opportunities in
home building and buying.

The Soldiers and Sailors Employment

sixty Jobs ready FOR discharged mili-
