Ruling on Gold Pens
Nibs Sold for Replacement Not
Taxable

John f. Walker, Deputy Commits
sioner of Revenue, settled, few days
ago, problem that has been confront-
ing manufacturers Of fountain pens
for some time. Whether gold pens or
nibs are taxable when sold separately
IS question which has been puzzling
the trade.
The revenue department, some time
ago, IN answer to inquiries of the pen
manufacturers, ruled that a gold pen
or nib when sold separately for re-
placement in a fountain pen was not
taxable, and it was believed by the
jewelry trade that this meant that the
decision applied to pen sold for a
regular penholder The depa partment.
however. has not taken this view, and
while adhering to the ruling that the
replacement of gold pen does not con-
stitute a taxable sale, feels that the
sale Of gold pen for any other pur-
pose is taxable.
This matter was made clear in a let
ter. signed by Mr.. Walker, to the chair
man of the Jewellers War Revenue Tax
Committee, which explained that tax
accrues N all cases except when a nib
is sold for repair or replacement IN
fountain pen, and if the dealer has no
means of determining the purpose for
which the nib is sold he should return
the sale for taxation.

Buyers Seek News
Of Spring Silks
High Price of Raw Fibre and
Labor Conditions Increase
Producing Cost

Few buyers were in the silk goods
market yesterday. Those who were
about the showrooms busted them
selves in trying TO pick up information
as to the prospects for getting reason
ably adequate supplies during the forth
coming spring selling season. Con
fronted by high prices for raw silk and
perplexlng labor problems, sellers pre-
ter to adhere TO an ultra conservative
policy. When the period arrives for
marketing the staple fabrics for next
spring il is probable, the silk men say.
that prices VIII have ascended TO the
highest levels ever witnessed in the
trade. Raw silk that has been bought
tor delivery during the fall and winter
months OF this year never has been as
GEAR as 1t is at present. Besides the
labor union movement to establish a
forty-four hour weekly working sched-
ule IS gaining power, the force of
which, according to some of the manu-
facturers, is likely to accomplish the
object that is being sought by the mill
operatives. This propaganda for re-
duced hours of labor is fostered to a
considerable extent by the concededly
short supply of help. Within the next
week or so indications of how the forty
four-hour week is likely to fare prob
ably will have developed At the mo-
ment the movement is more forceful in
the Paterson district than it is in the
mill centres Of Massachusetts,, Con-
necticut and upper New York In or
der to increase production the manu-
facturers are planning for the con-
structlon Of new plants and making ad-
ditions to existing ones. Heretofore
these operations have been held in
check by the inability of the machinery
manufacturers to supply equipment,
but the indications are that the latter
are working toward a position where
they can supply the silk mills.
