IEATHER--Shoe Makers
Rush Easter F00tUpur

Shoes re being rushe through the
local factories as quickly as possible
in an effort to supply the retailers
with Easter styles. Production is re-
tarded by shortage Of lasts. Last
manufacturers have had trouble meet
ing the demand for some time, and the
advent OF the shorter vamp and new
models adds TO their difficulties. There
is plenty Of business and shoe factor
les are running at capacity. Low shoes
are being manufactured i'll record
breaking quantities with d growing
tendency toward the lower heel.
Manufacturers of medium grade or
lower priced shoes are pushing pro
t!uction and some cloth top boot sam
pies are being sent through. The
demand for the shorter vamp is steady
and this style is being made in larger
quantities, the extreme short model
being avoided.
With silk stockings In ribbed effects
appearing, the brogue oxford is leading
the field of low shoes. Already some
merchants are anticipating the demand
by placing recorders for lightweight
brogues and ribbed silk hosiery. The
one~eyelet ribbon %e is sure hit
and is being shown in black and
brown suede, satin and kid.

COTTONS-Jobbers Seek
D0mestics for Spot Use

Dry goods jobbers from the West,
South, Middle West are in the market
for domestic cottons for immediate use.
They report that the retailers in their
January and February white sales have
depleted their stocks of bedding mate
rails. towels, napkins, table cloths, etc,
and are drawing on tho jobbers for
additional supplies. In turn the job
bers are seeking moro goods from the
agents.
Few agents have spot goods to sell.
The nearest delivery that can be prom
ised is five weeks, and most sellers are
asking for eight weeks. On certain
numbers some mill agents are sold up
to June, and. although jobbers appar-
emily are willing to operate into July,
August and September, white goods
selling agents are unwilling to take on
contracts for delivery that late.
New price lists are expected to be
issued by the white goods houses III
April. In many of the selling Offices
it is believed that the new prices will
show no increases over the previous
lists. There appears to be a we'll de-
fined opinion an ong sellers that prices
havo reached their peak, but no de-
cline is In sight.

Government Loss ON
Roads $3.50, 900, 600
Authority Says Railroad Ad-
ministration's Estimate
Is Too Low

Tho loss TO the government from
operations of the railroads in 1919 was
at least $456,O0o,0 900, according to fig
ures compiled by "The Railway Age"
This is much larger than the estimates
that have been made by the railroad
administration.
According to. recent statistics of the
Interstate Commerce Commission, there
was an indicated deficit of $3.50 900, 900,
but "The Railway Age" states that
s.,Are had to be added to this loss Of
vae Glass l railways further loss due
tosa deficit from the operation of sleep
zng cars and to other causes.
"lf the railroad administrations ex-
pcnses, and its losses due to the oper-
ation Of sleeping cars and to other
causes prove to have been as great In
1919 as in 1915" the publication adds.
"then the deficit in 1919 would be al
!ost $41l,00o,O0o. There Is another
large. item which must be taken into
consideration. but of which no account
IL belng taken, in most Of the estimates
Of the deficit.
There has been made In the rail-
ways since the government took them
ever new investment of approx
mateiy $1,000, 100000. The railway
companies furnished part Of the CAM,
sAl for this investment and the rov.
srnment furnished part of It. Revsrd.
Tess OF who furnished 1t, the govern.
mont has to pay interest on it which
probably will amount for the vear 1910
to about S45,000,000. This would in'
crease the governments deficit for ,eio
to Ss56,0O0,000."

Is the opinion Of retailers who still
find it difficult to secure supplies from
the factories. With larger wages to
spend and more time TO spend them,
the factory workers are devoting less
energy TO producing clocks than they
were formerly. Many of them. manu-
facturers assert, have acquired the
habit Of absenting themselves from
the plants whenever they have money.
In the larger producing centers of
Connecticut the industry has cncoun-
tered another handicap in the increased
building activity which offers oppor-
tunity for employment.
Large manufacturers, with few ex-
ception, have enough orders in hand to
carry them for many months and it has
become necessary for them to accept
orders from only old and prompt
paying customers and on the condition
that prices be quoted at time of de
livery. In addition to this extremely
heavy domestic business orders for
clocks for export also are being re-
ceived in large numbers. Foreign buy
ers are willing to pay any price asked
by the manufacturers so lorg as promp pt
delivery is assured. One Canadian buyer
visited the New York representatives Of
large clock company and offered to
buy large amount of all kinds of time
pieces. AS the domestic orders on
hand we're behind delivery this concern
was compelled to turn down the order.
After visiting several other manufac-
turers with the same result the Cana
dian buyer was forced 10 visit the East
Side jobbers and scrape up as many
of the clocks as he could at greatly
increased prices. High grade clocks,
this buyer asserted, are so scarce in
Canada and the demand is so great that
the consumer is willing TO pay any
prices asked by the stores.

LEAGUE OR NO LEAGUE

Governor Cox's declaration al
Charleston, w. Va, Monday that he
would accept the league with whatever
reservations the, senate saw fit to make.
puts the issue upon new footing.
1t is now choice between league,
with senatorial reservations, and no
league at all.
Senator Harding has said positively
that he is opposed to the league, md
is not seeking Qualification but rejec-
ton. Some Of his eastern supporters
tiers interpret his declaration as mean
ing that he is willing to accept the
league with reservations, but it is a
fair presumption that Harding means
about what he says on that point.
Cox's declaration is a complete an
swer to Taft's argument that, if Cox
were elected he would insist upon put
ting the league through without change.
with the result that it would inevitably
be defeated in the senate, and. there
fore, the only hope of league is
through Harding and compromise. Cox
lets it be definitely and positively
known that if elected this country will
join the league, if not on his own terms,
then, on the best terms he can get
from the senate.
If Harding is elected, the program
will be new association of nations,
of course new covenant, new trea-
ty with Germany. if the other nations
agree. and, if not, separate treaty
with Germany, negotiated by this
country alone.
There is no longer much excuse for
any misunderstanding. 1t is plainly
and squarely, league or no league.
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1920-10-26

the California election, which takes
place next Tuesday.
Japan demands racial equality. She
is willing to waive social equality, but
she insists that her citizens shall have
the same right to earn a living and in
vest their funds that other residents of
the United States have.
The point upon which Japan will nj
slst most strongly when she renews
negotiations, in case the California
statute carries, is that this statute is
contrary TO the terms of the japanese
treaty; and on that ground the Uni
ted States will be asked to interfere.
Under the precedents and traditions
of the past the government will not un-
dertake to coerce state unless the case
is extremely plain, although it will
doubtless advise California, as it has
done already. to modify its attitude.
The situation thus created will be ex-
tremely embarrassing. 1t will not, of
itself. constitute cause of war, but
it will intensity the feeling already ex-
isting in both countries.
1t is about time to decide whether
we want to resort to extreme measures,
or so modify our laws as to remove all
cause Of irritation to our sensitive As
iatic neighbors.
