CHEMICALS-S0da Ash
Scarce, With Demand Hcayier

Glacial acetic acid was in good de-
mand yesterday, being quoted at 12H
cents a pound, an advance of Y cent
The largest purchasers were manufact-
urers of rubber goods and glassware,
good demand from consumers for
oXi>lic acid was noted. Cork manufact-
urers were the chief buyers. The mar
ket for oxalic acid has been weak dur
ing the last few weeks, because of the
ample suppl. on hand. This has led to
the withdrawal from the market of
Scandinavian and Dutch acid, which
has increased the call for domestic
product.
Light soda ash in single bags is
scarce and heavy buying is expected in
the future. 1t is now quoted at 81 95
a hundredweight, f. o. b. works. Manu-
facturers of baking powder, drugs and
soda water are the chief buyers. Bak-
ing powder people also are purchasing
good quantities of ammonia carbonate,
quoted yesterday at II to l234 cents
a pound, according to quantity and
degree.
The export demand for potassium
chlorate continues to attract attention.
Sales of the prime material are being
made at 20 cents a pound, including
freight to South America.
Little buying was done in caustic
soda To the surprise of brokers,
prices continue firm, despite the lull in
trading. The export quotation is now
$3.5 hundredweig less per cent.

WOrsted Plaids i'm
Heavy Demand for Fall

Although some manufacturers of
women's apparel have declared their in
tentlon of buying - more cloth until
conditions in the fabric markets are
more stabilized others feel that prices
Will remain firm or continue to ad-
vance, and so are operating as far
ahead as the mills will permit. The
popularity of tricotinc, serge, poret
twill and other worsted fabrics con-
tlnues, and the garment makers are
particularly desrous to cover their
spring requirements of these goods
now 1t is said that many Of the larger
manufacturing concerns have succeeded
in getting mills to accept orders for
these goods to be delivered from Jan
uary to March, but mill agents are re-
luctant to admit it.
Jobbers report heavy demands for
worsted goods for present and future
use. Worsted plaids in high colors
are being sought by the manufacturers
of skirts for the fall season, but the
supply in the hands of the iobbers is
small and the mills, in most cases, will
not accept orders for delivery before
next year.

Italy Raises Tariff
On American Goods
Revenue, Not Protection, Basis
of New Rates, Says
Premier Nitti

ROME, Aug 12 (By The Associated
Press Francesca Nitti, the Premier.
to-day received Alfred B. Dennis, Amer
lean commercial attache at Rome. The
conversation dealt with the proposed
Italian levy upon invested capital, the
new Italian tariff, which soon becomes
eHectlve, and the continuance of i'm
port restrictions upon certain classes
OF American goods.
The Premier said that the new tax
alton should not be construed as pref
judicial to the American investor in
Italian enterprises. The new levy, he
asserted. would not apply to funds of
foreign investors or to capital actively
employed In productive enterprises
The new tariff will not become effect
i've until September 20, and is still
under discussion. The Premier said
that unquestionably there would be a
considerable advance in custom rates
upon certain American commodities.
but the rates were designed primarily
Tor revenue rather than for protection,
and IN no case were they intended as
bar to importation from foreign
countries.
Premier Nitti is reported to have as
sured Mr.. Dennis that the exclusion Of
American automobiles and farm ma
chlnery was based on the temporary
consideration of adverse exchange.
The cheaper makes of American
automobiles do not compete with the
hlgh.priced cars of Italian manufac-
ture," the Premier told Mr.. Dennis,
nor can your farm machinery, which is
being of enormous aid in the develop
ment of ltaly's agricultural RESOURCES,
be duplicated in Italian factories. In
evitably, the Italian Ira will recover
something of its former purchasing
power. Thus we may see correspond
ing relaxation in the restrictions now
imposed upon the importation of
American automobiles and farm ma
chinery."
a brief covering in detail the points
of the American trader and investor.
was submitted to Premier Nitti by Mr..
Dennis.

TEXTILES-T0iles Actiue
Feature in Cotton Goods

Apart from fairly active transactions
in voiles, the cotton goods market yes
terday was devoid of any selling
activity. There were stocks of various
fabrics offered, but fewer buyers were
in the market than for many weeks.
In most quarters it was felt that the
disposition to delay purchases because
of national economic unrest was sup
plemented by natural lull which IS
the result of heavy buying of .the last
month.
Despite the dullness there was a gen.
eral feeling that as soon as labor
issues have been settled and proposed
legislation affecting living costs has
been enacted buying will be resumed.
No great revival of activity, however,
is looked for until about September /,
when buying of goods for next spring
will revive the market.
Waist manufacturers bought several
lines of imported voiles from CONVEX
ters yesterday, paying for the high
grade goods from rs cents to S71a
cents a yard. Good voiles of domestic
weave were sold for 571a cents a yard.
There was no movement Of conse-
quence of lower grade gray goods,
although stocks in second hands were
offered freely. Quotations on 6460s
in second hands were made at II cents
a yard, but brokers reported that this
price could have been forced down u
cent by energetic buyers.

RUBBER-Prices Higher
For Crude Plantation Grades

A good business was transacted in
the crude rubber market again yester-
day at firm prices. Ribbed smoke sheets
brought 421s cents, an advance of one
half cent over the preceding close.
October-December could be purchased
TOR from 4A12 to As cents pound For
hrst iateX, 43. cents was asked. an ad-
vance of one-half cent, while October
December was up one cent. The
Paras also were firm in sympathy
with the heavy buying of plantation
rubbers. Gables received from London
and Singapore reported strong markets
with considerable buying.
According to several large manufact-
urers, orders for mechanical rubber
goods. are being received more rapidly
than for some time past. An increa sed
demand for rubber betting is attributed
IN large. part to the high cost of the
leather kind
New-York tribune., 1919-08-13

materially in the last few weeks, dur
ing which period buyers seemed to
have become convinced that it were
useless to adhere to the policy of hold
ing off for lower prices which was
adopted early in the year. Present
quotations are so to 40 per cent higher
than those prevailing in 1914 and the
volume of business, dealers say, is not
larger than that before the war. Or
ders for large amounts of cheap har-
ness were reported coming from deal
ers IN the Southern states.
Export sales of harness to South
American countries were also reported
large. Before the war Great Britain
supplied the bulk Of this trade.
Dealers in leather betting state that
their business has been steadily in
creaslng during the past few weeks. 1t
is predicted that August sales will be
one third greater than those of July.
Prices for heavy betting are now 60
per cent above those of 1914 This in
crease, it is said, is due to the advance
IN the prices of hides. Betting is made
OF the best grade Of heavy leather,
which formerly sold for about 80 cents
foot, but now costs 60 cents foot.

S1LKS-Spring Lines Ready
About Sepfember I

Business in the silk goods market
yesterday was limited in most cases
to sales by jobbers and speciality
houses, although the latter were handi-
capped by a continued shortage of
stocks Manufacturers are preparing
displays on their spring lines to be
opened around September /, and a few
of them are beginning to take limited
orders for staple lines for spring
delivery.
The demand for silk jersey in a wide
assortment of patterns is looked upon
by manufacturers as assurance of
record business in that fabric next
season. Makers of women's sport
clothes are the heaviest buyers of the
extensive orders for varied lines. One
of the largest novelty houses, antici-
pating a big demand, materially in
creased it's production of the cloth
The jersey is selling from $3.50 a yard
in 36-inch width to SLIPS a yard for
54-inch wide patterns.
Importers of finished French silk
goods are finding a ready market for
their limited stocks, high grade yelling
and brocaded ribbon being in partcu-
lar favor with buyers. Despite the
their mills during the past five years
and the present labor difficulties French
manufacturers are rapidly raising their
output to a normal basis and deliver
les to this market are being made in
increasing volume.
Business in the raw silk market con-
tnued inactive. The inclination of
manufacturers to await an anticipated
lowering of prices before purchasing
beyond immediate needs has been ac-
ccntuated by the recent strike among
the dye workers. This latest develop
ment, in the opinion of some of the
raw silk importers, is the dominating
factor at the moment in the compara-
tive stagnation of the market here
Importers, while acknowledge the
probability of a further decrease in
prices, are optimistic in regard to the
future. They argue that the increase
of over 100 per cent since 1914 in labor
costs attendant upon the production
of raw silk will prevent any manterial
lowering of the market In addition,
they point out, that the revival of
manufacturing in Europe has been SO
hastened that the European raw prod
uct will not suffice for the demand
facturers will become extensive buyers
in the Japanese markets, thus sustain
ing prices there.
The comparative lack of American
buying, nevertheless, is meeting with
response in the form of declining
prices in Yokohama. Yesterdays cables
from Japan reported reduction of
five cents pound on both Shnshiu No.
l and Kansai double extra, the former
selling for 1920 and the latter for
$10.40 a pound.

METALS-SmaII Dealers
Cutting Price of Conner

Although some of the small dealers
in copper are Offering a little metal
at substantial concessions, the large
agencies are maintaining prices. Their
quotation on August copper is 23 q
cents, unchanged, and "a cents for Sep
tember delivery.
Speculative sales by the small deal
ers are reported to have been made

delivery.
The trade is dull-daily transactions
when both domestic and foreign con-
sumers came into the market on an

Prices High World Over
Nearly All Products in Inter.
national Trade Soar

In q comparison of prices the world
over the National City Bank finds that
rising costs have not been confined to
the United States or to the countries
which participated in the war. Nor has
the advance in prices occurred exclu-
slvely In the products required for war
purposes, nor for the use of the mill
ions engaged in the war
practically every article entering in
ternational trade" the bank says, Shas
advanced in price in the country in
which produced, irrespective of their
proximity to the war area. Nor have
prices been reduced to perceptible de-
gree in any part of the world since the
close Of the war. There are, of course.
few exceptions to this general rule,
but they are so few and so plainly due
to peculiar conditions that they prove
the rule that the advance has been
worldwide and that the termination
of the war has not reversed the move
ment, or at least caused any material
decline in any considerable proportion
of the important articles of world pro-
duction and world consumption"

Clothing Trades
Labor Problem
! Comes Up To-day
All Manufacturers i'm CITY
Are Invited to Attend
| Conference Conditions
Described as Chaotic

Labor conditions in the mems cloth
Ing manufacturing trade here have
become so chaotic that general con-
ference, to which every clothing manu-
facturer in the city is invited, has been
called for to-day by the Clothing Man.
ufacturers' Industrial Exchange, the
labor end OF the American Mems and
Boys Clothing Manufacturers Associa-
tion. The conference will be held at
5 p. m. at the Hotel Rrevoort.
The manufacturers say that contin-
uous demands for wage increases in
individual shops, despite a set wage
scale subscribed to by the organized
manufacturers and the union. and the
shifting of labor from one factory to
another, are running up costs to pro-
hibltive heights and decreasing pro-
duction. Some manufacturers say a
continuance of the situation will com
pei them to close up their factories
entirely. The union asserts that much
of the trouble has been caused by man
ufacturers bidding against each other
for the services of labor. The extraor-
dinary demand for clothing recently
has led some manufacturers to open
new factories or to increase the facili-
ties in their old shops, thus bringing
about a greater demand for labor.
Wage Scale Ignored
Following the strike last winter,
new wage scale was fixed by the board
of arbitration. This scale provided for
a 50 a week increase to the workers
and the reduction of working hours
from 48 to IA to week. Before the
new scale could be placed into effect,
individual bargains between the union
and separate shops brought the wage
increase up to SO a week Late in
June or early in July, despite the
agreement, the workers forced another
increase of from So to Sc a week from
the manufacturers. This failed to sta
bilize the situation and offers of more
wages from manufacturers and de-
mands for more money from the work
ers drew the market further way from
the established wage scale in individ-
ual cases.
Conferences UnavaiIing
Conferences between the association
officials and the union have failed to
bring about any results, SO a meeting
at which the entire trade, both mem
bers and non-members of the associa-
ton, has been called in an effort to
decide upon definite line of action.
1t is understood that the union is
working on a plan calling for sepa-
rate wage scales in individual shops
and perhaps fiat increase of So a week
for most of the workers.
The manufacturers recently consid-
cred granting wage increases and then
establishing a new wage scale and
paying all those under the scale in
creases of 81 a month until they
reached the general level of other
workers at the same tasks. This idea,
1t is said, has been abandoned and the
manufacturers are entering the con-
ference without any definite plans pre-
pared.
New-York tribune., 1919-08-13

present Indications the coming holiday
business will establish new records.
In anticipation Of this business re-
tailcrs were in the market several
months ago placing large orders. Rings,
watches, vanity cases, cigarette cases,
lavallieres. necklaces and many other
types of jewelry, in addition to various
asortments of silverware, are meeting
with wide demand, so orders received
by the manufacturers show.
Jobbers declare that they are dis
posing of their stocks as fast as they
are received, but even so arc unable
to keep up with their orders from the
retailers. Because of their desire to
have goods delivered at as early a
date as possible, retailers continue to
visit the local market. In otler years,

Seek Glassware Here to
Repair Hun Destruction

PITTSBURGH, Aug. 12.-With view
to repairing losses inflicted largely by
Hun artillery, a mission from France,
Italy and Spain is in Pittsburgh for
the purchase of machinery to manu-
facture window glass, bottle glass,
plate glass, tableware and other
articles They will buy manufactured
goods as we'll as machinery and also
are eager to buy patented processes.
Z. Genti, of Paris, is in charge of
the mission. His associates are A.
Archer, of Northern France; G. I'M
perali, of Italy, and c. Eaman, of Spain.
They say their visit will be long one
and that they expect to buy extensively,
as much of the glass and tableware of
france and Italy, as well as factories
Tor making them, were ruined.
