according to Secretary-Treasurer
j. T. Ryan, of High Point, N. c.,
for the purpose of discussing pres

Reports made at the conference
indicated that normal demand for

that there has been no decline in
any of the articles of cost that go
into the manufacture of furniture
except lumber, which was said to
have declined somewhat from the
recent peak prices, but it was point
ed out that little furniture was
made on the basis of these peak
prices.
