Pilgrim Postage Stamps
Go ON Sale in New York
Tercentcnary Issue Is in Three
Denominations: One, Two
and Three Cents

The Pilgrim tercentenary postage
stamps, for which stamp collectors
have been looking with some eager
ness, were placed on sale in New York
yesterday
The Pilgrim stamps are of three
values-l-cent, green: 2-cents, red;
and scents. blue. They are small
and rectangular shaped, in size
the same as the Victory Scent
stamp issued last year The 1-cent
stamp depicts the Mayfower under
full sail; the 2-cent stamp shows the
landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth,
December 81, 1920; and the 5-cent
stamp shows the signing of the COM
pact with the Southern colonies in
the cabin of the Mayf1ower.
According to William w. Randall,
philatelist, these stamps are unique
in that for the first time the name of
the United States and the word
postage" do not appear.
This is the ninth CONNER morative
issue Of postage stamps. the first hav
ing been put out in honor of the
Columbian Exposition in Chicago in
1893.

Candidates Not Discussed
]. Nj. Price Issues Statement Re.
garding Fusion Conference

Joseph Nj. Price, who helped organ
ize the Fusion Committee of lot seven
years ago. Issued the following state
ment yesterday:
"In reference to the stories appear
ing in the newspapers to-day of q
group formed to support a candidate
for Mayor 1t is very unfortunate that
the impression should be given Of the
advocacy of any candidate at this time.
Any such action now would be exceed
ingly foolish. and those attending the
conference had nothing of that sort in
mind.
"The conference was called solely TO
talk over the situation relative to the
next Mayoralty election. The discus
sion centered entirely upon the method
to be pursued in organizing all the
forces in greater New York who are
opposed to the present Hy!an oligarchy
and Tammany Hall, and the most eff
fective means of bringing back an in
telligent, responsive and efficient gov
ernment to the City Of New York
That movement is under way. When
the time comes, and that is long way
off, candidates will be discussed, but
not until then"

Anal lgamated Says
Clothiers Hope to
Keep Prices High
Deadlock in Industry Called
Result of Profteering;
Owners Said to Aim
to Create a Shortage

The deadlock in the clothing industry
is declared the result Of profiteering
IN statement made public yesterda.
by the Amalgamated Clothing Workers.
lhe statement, product Of the unions
research department, says the manu-
facturers have taken advantage of the
public and now hope to maintain ex-
orbitant profits at the expense of labor.
But the ultimate sufferer will still be
the public, according to Sidney Hill
man, president. and Joseph Schloss-
berg, general secretary, of the union.
Ihey aim to destroy the workers
union; that is our affair, or 90 the pub
lie may regard it," the statement says.
What is certainly the peoples affair
is the supply and price of cloth ng
10 the public, therefore, we address
this warn ng of the consequences of
the manufacturers actions Those ac-
tions are as much directed against the
public as against US.
"By institutng a lockout in New
York, by trying to extend that lockout
to other markets, the manufacturers
aim to create shortage, unload stocks
at gh figure, maintain profiteering
and, if possible, unload the blame on
labor.
Right now there are millions Of
yards of cloth uncut; there are ennis
saries from New York working in other
cities to instigate lockouts; there are
meetings of manufacturers for devils
ing ways of preventing production"
The union IS confident of it's own fu-
ture in the trade, but warns the public
that the manufacturers policy will pre-
vent further price reductions.
DR.. Leo Wolman, director Of the
unions research department, tracing
the rise in prices over a per cd of two
years, said those prices were deter
mined not by wages, but "by what the
traffic was willing to bear, by what the
public could be forced to pay.
Snow that the market situation has
radically changed, the manufacturers do
not want to lose any of the advantages
they gained in 1919, and want to shift
the burdens of fall ng market on the
shoulders of labor. The union sa d to
the manufacturers: Permit US to meet
with you and discover those of your
difficulties that are due to labor; such
difficulties we shall take immediate
steps to remedy But this proposal the
manufacturers rejected. Instead, they
prom Sc lower pr ces and at the same
time they voluntarily add to their cost
of production by entering upon an ex-
pensive lockout"
