Jewelry Failures in
1919 Smallest ON Record
Few Embarrassments Attributed
to Nationwide Prosperity and
PrOmpter Cash PAYMENTS

Coupled with the enormous business
transacted in the jewelry trade Of the
country throughout 1919 comes report
from the mercantile agencies to the ef-
feet that the financial condition of the
retail ieweler is in accord with the
business he has done and that fail
ures among the dealers in watches and
clocks during the last year have been
the lowest ever recorded in any twelve
months period.
According to statistics compiled by
r. G. Dun & Co., there were but sew
entythree failures in the jewelry in
dustry in 1919, and the total liabilities
of all these dealers were 5000. 1873. These
figures are much less than half Of the
record breaking figures of 1918, which
showed l7S failures among the Amer
lean jewelry dealers, with total liza
biities of S1.644,854. To get the
proper comparisons, however. the 1919
figures should be compared with those
for 1917, 1916 and 1915. In 1917 222
failures. with liabilities of $1,7S7 ops,
were reported, compared with 293 fail
ures, with liabilities of S2,790,36l, in
1916 and 494 failures in 1915, with liza
bilitles of S5,S22,430
The showing of the retail trade is
no less remarkable than that of the
wholesale trade, for, according to sta
tistics compiled by the anyfacturing
jewelers. Board Of Trade, there were
but six failures among the wholesale
dealers in jewelry in the entire United
States and Canada in 1919, and the
total of the liabilities was but s14O.7OO
compared with twentyfour in 1916,
when the liabilities were S750,560.
In commenting. on this remarkably
good showing the secretary of the
Manufacturing jewelers. Board of
Trade attributed it 20 large extent
to the prosperity enjoyed at present,
but at the same time pointed to the
fact that the prosperity in the trade
also was due to the change in condi-
ton from a buyers to sellers mar
ket, which has put the manufacturer
in d position to shorten his time limit
on payments and strictly enforce cash
discount regulations.

Attempt to Cat High
Price of Butter Fails
Foreign Product Which Would
Reduce Cost Is Rejected
bV Many Dealers

Most everybody has been crying
about the high cost Of living and ask
inc how it can be reduced, and various
government officials have been making
more or less serious efforts to cut down
the cost, vet when we obtain oppor-
tunity to make a dent in the high cost
of living we don't accept it," remarked
James L. iiolcombe, an importers
agent. Just a few days ago, for in
stance. lot Of Danish butter reached
New York. Approximately 100000
pounds OF this prodpct were received.
and necessarily the price at which it
vas CONSIGNED was considerably less
than the domestic product sells for.

l.. 5. Attorney Gets
Evidence Against
HOarders of Wool
Food Administrator Doubts
Arrests Will Be Made, as
He Believes Holdings Will
BE Fut on Market Soon

Federal Food Administrator Arthur
Williams announced yesterday that he
had turned over TO the United States
Attorneys Office here evidence against
alleged wool hoard IS.
He declared that Federal operatives
were At work on information given by
a large WOODEN goods manufacturer,
who had been offered material under
circumstances which indicated clearly
that the jobber was boarding.
Mr.. Williams said that it had not
been determined whether or not the
suspects would be arrested. If they
were arrested, he said, prosecutions
would follow under the Lever act. and
would mark the first for the boarding
OF a commodity other than foodstufs.
Il am inclined To think it viii not be
necessary TO make arrests Mr.. Will
liams said. Il believe that as soon as
these men learn tha. hey are in danger
Of arrest they VIII Immediately reeas e
their holdings at moderate prices. If
the prices they demand are excessive,
we can hold them on charges of prof
itecrlng if not boarding.
In Danger of Losses
The hoarders are in danger Of sus-
tanning serious losses if they think
the wool price is due for big advance.
From my discussions with WOODEN goods
men | have made certain that the
sweeping price increases predicted are
not based on facts"
dr Williams announced that he had
decided to drop all charges OF prohteer-
,te |, II

George II. Cohen, United States Attor-
ney at Hartford. Conn. Informed Mr..
Williams last month that the Connecti-
cut Beef Company had paid Is cents a
pound for 100 tons Of sugar purchased
from the l.amborn company. The gov
ernments price then was IL cents a
pound at retail.
On investigation it was learned that
the lamborn Company had paid nine
cents pound for the sugar and had
sold 500 tons IN addition, also at IS
cents pound. This transaction it
was learned. had netted the company
clear profit of S133.44O
Had to Drop Proceedings
Mr. Lamborn. at Mr.. Wiliams's re
quest, presented brief on the trans
action. 1t showed that he had been
given authority by f. H. Costello. OF
the Sugar Equalization Board. and
Howard Figg, a Deputy United States
Attorney General. to dispose of the
sugar at ID cents a pound. The sugar.
along with 1000 additional tons. had
been purchased by the Lamborn Com
pany fer export
When the shortage became apparent
here the company offered to dispose

Same price which it was obtaining in
the export market. ID cents pound.
For this reason. according to the brief,
tho government officials had approved
of the price and permitted the do
mestic sale Of the sugar. notwith-
standing the extraordinary profit made
by the company.
Mr.. Williams said that since other
governmental agencies had accepted
the price he had no alternative except
to drop further proceedings

Curtail Tobacco Supply

MADRID, Jan 29.-Publc impatience
at the continued lack of cigarettes
owing to strikes throughout the coun-
try is increasing daily. and disorders
outside of the shops having limited
supply are becoming more frequent
and more serious.
The shops are besieged by thous-
ands, and extra police are needed to
keep the lines of men and boys in or

able. as was the case last night when
a group forced its way through the
