CLOTH|ER SAYS
SOARING PRICES
WILL CONTINUE

CHICAGO, Dec. II. - Charles
Wry, secretary of the National As
ISOLATION of Retail Clothiers, has
issued statement in which he pre-
diets that there will be a material
increase in clothing prices next
spring. He says that prices will
continue to soar during the winter
and that spring clothing will COM
mand higher prices than any yet
demanded by the manufacturers.
Suits, he says, which brought $25
before the war probably will bring
$50 in the spring.
The retailers of the country, he
declares. have been unable to cheek
the advance, in spite of the fact
that everything possible has been
done by them to bring about low
ering of prices. The manufacturers
claim that they cannot make clothes
at former prices, owing to the in.
creased cost of labor and materials.

CRISIS PASSED;
NATION SECURE

NEW YORK, Dec. lin an ad-
dress delivered in this city this aft
ernoon. former President William H.
Taft expressed the belief that the
danger from Bolshevism in this
country is at an end, because of
the fact that the leaders of dissatis-
faction have found that they cannot
turn America into Bolshevik gov
eminent.
The industrial situation, the speak
er said, is becoming rational and
unrest throughout the country.
which has been source of grave
concern since the close Of the war,
is disappearing rapidly.
Conditions in the United States,
and through the entire world as

pated within the near future.

SOME MINERS REFUSE.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. lin a
statement issued today, President
Lewis expressed the belief that Il
majority of the 400, 900 striking coal
miners would resume work immedi-
ately. 1t is impossible, he says, to
get word to all districts without
some little delay, and there may be
some strikers who will refuse to ac-
cept the committees settlement, but
he believes that most Of the miners
will be working again by Monday
and that the fuel situation, which is
becoming acute in various sections
Of the country. will be relieved
materially before the end of an
other week.
None of the Illinois mines have
been reopened yet, and similar con-
ultiOIlS are ISpOIlSu lfOIl 1ONS-
Washington, and Kansas. Michigan
is also tagging somewhat, and it is
considered doubtful if all the miners
of that state will agree to return
until the wage question has been
finally disposed of. There has been
a general resumption of mining in
Indiana and other states, however,
and it is believed the Ohio mines
will be working at capacity by Mon
day.
The chief opposition to the COM
mittee's action comes from the state
of Washington, where the strikers
declare they will not return to worl;
until the strike has been called off
