Softening of prices asked for kid

more apparent this week Some of the

arc feeling the pressure of the banks

limited and few shoe manufacturers

appears.
AS result of the dull market tan

to see. The delay in transportation
is still an important factor in the mar

hides and finished leather are content
when their financial ability permits, to
sit back and let the market run its
course for the time being. The clear

felt, will result in clearer conception
of the amounts of available hides and
leather and will lead to more stable
price basis.
