Michigan Organization TO Promote the
Generals Candidacy Formed

Hon. A. r. Roberts, OF Marquette.
formerly state senator from this dis
trict. is the chairman OF the execu-
tive committee of the organization in
Michigan formed to promote the can
didacy OF Gen. Wood. Sen. Roberts
is well known In Crystal Falls where
he has many friends who are glad to
know that he has been attached to
the organization. He has been an
enthusiastic Wood man all or the
time and Il was mainly through his
work that the general was induced TO
come to Marquette.
The formal placing OF Gen. Wood
before the republicans of Michigan
came with the announcement from
Detroit last week that headquarters
had been opened at Detroit for the
purpose OF promoting the generals
candidacy and for the securing of sig
natures to the petition necessary to
place his name upon the primary bal
lot Michigan has presidential
primary which this time promises TO
be real primary. not 'favorite son"
manipulation like the last one when
II was made farce of by the filing of
Henry Ford's name to oppose Senator
Smith. folly that has since been
sadly regretted.
General Woods candidacy is placed
with that OF Governor Lowden. OF IL
linois, before the party in this state.
Some officers of the Wood league have
been named and headquarters have
been opened in the Offices OF Walter
c. Piper. Holden building, Detroit.
This announcement comes at the
same time as the decision OF three
farmers organizations of the state to
offer their support to Milo c. Camp
bell. OF Coldwater, as candidate for
governor, and the national and state
campaigns for 1920 may therefore be
said to be fairly begun.
The officers for Michigan designated
by the central organization conduct
ing Gen. Woods campaign in New
York are: Fred NJ. Alger president; !;
Walter c. Piper, vice-president; for
mer State Representative Charles A.
weissert, OF Hastings secretary and
former Senator Alton T. Roberts. OF
Marquette. chairman OF the executive
committee. A treasurer, other vice
presidents and the members OF the
committee will be named.

FURNITURE PRICES HIGH.
Demand -Four Times Grehter Than
supply Due 70 Great Building.

Due to the great amount OF home
building now going on, which will
continue for three years at least. the
demand for furniture is four times
greater than the supply AT the
Grand Rapids, jamestown and Chica-
go furniture markets, dealers were
glade to place orders for one-fourth
OF their actual requirements.
In the January issue Of the Grand
Rapids furniture Record, the national
journal OF the furniture trade, pub
lished in the leading furniture city OF
the world. appears an article con-
talning the opinions OF leading fur
niture manufacturers in all the fur
niture centers. telling why furniture
prices will increase rather than de-
crease during 1920 Some say prices
will not go lower for five years. but
most OF the manufacturers expect
conditions to grow normal in three
years
In the last five years the cost Of
labor has tripled in the furniture fac
tories and lumber has advanced 300
to 500 per cent. Mirrors and other
materials are the highest they ever
have been, and each month sees a
slight increase in all materials. Fac
tories can't buy years supply like
they did in the old days and must be
satisfied with one carload OF lumber,
where before they purchased whole
trainloads at a time This keeps the
price on the increase.
The better grades Of lumber, es-
peciaiy walnut, are more plentiful
( than cheap lumber. that's why the
better grades OF furniture are more
economical than the cheap grades.
Most furniture factories ara over
sold for from six to twelve months
and most dealers are crying for fur
niture. Only those with foresight
will have sufficient furniture on hand
TO run them this winter Those with
small stocks must increase prices by
spring or quit business.
The family in need OF furniture
will not be able TO buy II any cheaper
than now unless Il desires 40 wall
three to Eve years for normal condi.

Untitled Orders Increased

Unified orders for steel on the books
OF the United States Steel Corporation
on Dec. 81, 1919 aggregated S.265,366
tons the largest amount since October
1918, and an increase OF 1,i37. .036 tons
over untitled orders on Nov. 30. 1919
The great demand for steel is shown
In the large increase in untitled tom
mage. which compares with gain in
November of 655,662 tons over octo-
ber. gain in October OF lSS,O30 tons
over September, and gain In Sept
OF 1855 tons over August. The De-
cember increase was made despite
the fact that the effect OF the steel
strike had worn off. although the coal
strike situation was handicap. But
the great increase is impressive when
compared with the increases in octo-
ber and November, when the steel
strike was in full effect

INTEREST IN SPORT EVENTS

c. w. Dickinson. secretary manager
OF the Michigan State Fair. and presi-
dent OF the International Association
OF Fairs and Expositions. the national
body which includes in its member
ship the executives OF all the leading
fairs in America. declares that sport
ing events will play greater part In
future fairs than they have in the
past.
At meeting OF the national body in
Chicago, at which time the Detroit
fair leader was chosen president, fair
secretaries from all over the country
asserted that the interest in sports a.
reused among the soldiers during the
war makes II imperative that sport
ing events be given greater considera-
tion in their coming expositions
while the Fairs were originally for
agricultural encouragement, the ex-
position OF today has outgrown that
idea" Dickinson explained. "Our
fairs have become gigantic institu-
tions. not only dealing with agricul-
tural pursuits. but the industrial, COM
mercial and entertainment phases OF
human activity While sports have
been well represented in fair pro-
grams. in the future they will cover
wider scope"
