resume conferences with the industrial

Yesterday with the board adopted a
resolution setting forth their attitude

however, that IN the conferences the
prices fixed by the Railroad Administra-

The representatives Of the coal indus

80 per cent OF The total production OF
bituminous coal was consumed by the
railroads of the country. and according
" the prices at which the Railroad Ad-
ministration bought coad had a direct
bearing upon the price TO the public.
Under these circumstances said the
statement issued by the coal assoeia-

accept the decision Of the conference
as 10 reasonable and fair prices for
coal and make its purchases Of railroad

They say the reason for this small
financial output by America is due to
our extensive method Of copying. But
that's long story, full of figures.
The fact as it applies to us is that IL
America will pay for one gown and
repeat 1t over a hundred times, then
the Paris and other smart European
women will buy different models, more
SO now than ever.
This Is the argument, but the fact
remains that we have seen over here

type Of clothes that were brought to
the states In February. 80 the Parish
