Trade announcement that the restriction
en- the importation Of leather gloves is

glove manufacturers.

e!ove is gone at any rate for several
years. he said. The prices now being
obtained for gloves i'm general are two
and a half to three and half times

has spent its effort playing politics. None Of the great
reconstruction outlined by the president have
been enacted Peace far off and the league

Without constructive ability of its own, the senate
