Aid for Raw Silk Industry
Japan Will Loan Syndicate SO,
100000 Yen TO PEG Price

TOXIC, Sept. 16.-The government
has decided. to come to the relief Of
the silk industry. 1t will loan the
Silk Syndicate 5o,ooO,OoO yen, with an
additional 100000 yen through the
Bank of Japan.
The object is to keep up the price
of raw silk and control exports.
Unconfirmed reports of Japan's ac-
tion to peg the price Of raw silk had
been heard in the trade here for sew
eral days, and the official notice came
as no surprise yesterday. 1t was gen.
orally understood that the syndicate
would attempt to peg the price of Sin
shiu No. l at 1900 yen, sharp ad-
vance from the low prices prevalent
after the Japanese market collapse.
While this decision has served to put
the market on a firm basis here, and
probably has stabilized conditions in
Yokohama, it is admitted by the local
trade that the higher quotations have
failed to stimulate buying and it may
be that they will have an opposite ef-
feet, for 1t is generally agreed that
conditions, SO far as they can be de-
terminei here, do not warrant such an
advance at present and buyers refuse
to make commitments on such an un-
stable basis

Further Price Reductions
Sought to Stabilize Market
Silk Hosiery Prices
Reduced SO Per Cent

A reduction Of about so per
cent in the wholesale price of
high class women's silk hosiery
was announced yesterday by J. r.
Beaton Co., Inc, distributors,
which will make possible, it is
said, the return Of the SITS silk
stocking at retail.
The downward revision, which
buyers have contended is neces-
sary in certain lines, especially
hosiery, to stimulate buying, may
have the effect of causing other
firms to follow suit. With the
Japanese government assisting
silk producers to strengthen
prices by placing a minimum on,
raw material, this action may
serve to help the market gen.
orally.

Why Shoes Aren't Cheaper
Leather Dealer Points Out Fal.
lacy i'm Lower Prices

In explaining why the consuming
public should not expect 50 per cent
reduction in the cost Of shoes because
leather prices have dropped about that
proportion, james NJ. Montgomery
vicepresident Of the Richard Young
Company, leather dealers, has sent a
letter to the trade calling attention to
the Importance Of labor costs in shoe
production. He asks:
"ls It, or is it not, true that, taking
the cost of all the leading manufac,
lures, only 10 per cent of The selling
cost to retailers is represented by orig
inal raw material and Is per cent Ia
cumulative labor?" Mr.. N-nteomerv
believes that these figures are approxi-
mately correct for staple manufactures.
