Federal Reserve Governor As.

Or 0nnressixe' NIeaaIrns

WASHINGTON. June Ex-Governor
Harding of the ederal Reserve Board
in statement tonight said that the
question of whether loans should he re-
fused i'll order to prevent further in
f1ation would nave to be decided by the
Reserve banks. The board had not at
tempted to define non-essential loans,
he said but was opposed TO the use of
drastic or Oppressive" mea4ures to
bring about q reduction of long stand
ing loans
lie expressed the belief that banks
were rot asking settlement of loans
which involve the production of COM
modities. He added that the pledge
given BY bankers here recently to re-
duce outstanding loans was not intend
ed TO cause indiscrinlinate curtailment
The statement was in reply TO a let
ter from Representative Garner, Dem
ocrat, Of Texas, who said Texas wool
and mohair growers feared tina. efforts

COTTONS-Cuba and South
america Actiue Buyers

Voiles, which have been more or less
Of dead issue in the domestic market
for weeks, are being actively sought by
South American and Cuban buyers
here. One converter has an order for
about 500 cases of voles from South
American customer, and is buying some
numbers which he does not stock him
self from his competitors in order to
fill the order.
The South American and Cuban DC
mand for printed goods of all kinds IS
SAID to be running as strongly as ever,
particularly in the coarser construc
tons, and this business is practically
all that some converters are booking at
present.
Finishing plants are advising COR
verters of an advance of approximately
7 per cent in finishing costs, beginning
June T. The workers in the finishing
trade received wage increases Of Is
per cent, effective June 1, and this is
given as the reason for the new advance
in finishing charges.

LEATHER-Lo,cer Prices
on Practically All Stocks

All grades Of finished upper leather
for the shoe trade, according to au-
thoritative reports, have declined with
in the last week, but the decrease in
price has not been sufficient, except
in the case of glazed Kid, to stimulate
much activity. Shoe manufacturers
throughout the country are reducing
their operations because of canceila-
tons and a lack of orders. and many
of them are trying to dispose of their
stocks of uncut leather.
The sole leather market is extremely
dull with solemakers curtailing oper-
ations and shoe manufacturers who
cut their own soles holding up cutting
activities. Supplies Of cut soles and
sole leather in the factories is under
stood to be ample for some time to
come, even if business revives soon.
British leather buyers, who have
been inactive for some time. are under
stood to be making more frequent in
quiries for quotations. and revival Of
export business is expected in some
quarters of the trade.

Trading in Wheat
Futures Expected
Again by July Is
Western Committee in Favor
of This Course; Senti-
ment Divided ON Probable
Change in Price for Crop

Advices from Chicago that the COM
mittee considering reopening trading
in wheat futures had virtually decided
to resume business on the Chicago
Board of Trade and other American ex-
changes on July Is for contracts ma
turing in December led to much dis
cussion here as to the probable price
change for the expected big crop.
Sentiment appeared pretty equally
divided and no one seemed willing to
venture a prediction as to whether the
market would advance to higher levels,
or whether it would sink to lower
values.
The worlds position is looked upon
IS strong, with America the principal
source of supply, but the new harvest
is now close at hand and inadequate
transportation facilities threaten to
force the producer to sell at a disad-
vantage.
The crops in most sections are pro
crossing favorably, but the most crt-
cal periods are still to be met and the
fact that the sprDg wheat crop got a
late start, makes it more than usually
liable to damage by the trying weather
during July and August. Exporters
were not in evidence during yesterday
session, but while export wheat at the
seaboard was trife lower. the Min
neapolis market was firm at unchanged
TO . cents higher.
Continuance of government control
Of the Canadian wheat crop for an
other year was urged in telegram
sent to Dominion government officials
from Winnipeg yesterday by the ex
ccutive committee OF the Canadian
Council of Agriculture, a large farmers
organizations The board cannot exer-
else control over the 1920 crop. 1t said,
unless its authority is renewed at the
present session of parliament.

SHKS-Markefs Dull;
Rn,rs Decline Still Further

Both the raw and finished silk mar
kets retain their dullncss, with little
hope for revival so long as the prices
u raw silks remain unstable and the
efforts of retailers to unload present
stocks of goods even at reduced prices
continue. New cables from Japan re-
ceived yesterday reported another drop
of 100 yen in raw silk This brings
Japanese quotations down to basis
of 400 yen for Sinshiu No. 1. Local
quotations were revised to about $3.50
for Sinshiu and SO for Kansa double
extra cracks, the best Japanese grade.
It was understood that importers were
willing to shade even these quotations,
which are near the low points reached
last year in February and March.
The raw silk industry in Japan is
reported to be slowing up, and the
reelers have deferred the opening of
the new season two weeks. New silk,

JEWELRY---Jet Ornaments
HELPED bv Black Vogue

The use of black as leading spring
color In women's garments, millinery
and accessories has brought jet back
into the front rank of novelty jewelry.
Until recently jet has been restricted
largely to mourning wear or to wear
by elderly women. Now the younger
girls have taken up the jet fad and
sales are running large in the depart
ment and novelty jewelry stores.
The Jet fad has been extended from
pins. brooches, earrings, lavallieres.
sautoirs, etc, to shoe buckles to be
worn with black satin, kid or patent
leather pumps.

port many orders for Jets for i'm
