works fell from the fourth 10 the
ground floor this morning with Il.
Hennitz, an emlloye at the WORKS

COTTONS-Drcss Fabrics
i'm Strong Den101d

Cotton goods suitable for dresses
waists and undergarments have been
littles affected by the slowing up that
has struck the trade as n whole. Spe-
cialty houses handling voilcs, ging-
hams, cotton crcpes. batistes, long
cloth, etc, assert that the demand from
the retail trade and the garment manu-
facturers is fast taking up the avail
able goods in the open market. Several
of the leading dress, waist and under
wear manufacturers have enlarged
their production of cotton garments
in anticipation that portion of
the demand for silk merchandise
will be diverted from silks, which
during the past two or three. years
have reached a high point of favor.
The trend toward greater use OF
cottons in these lines, according to
garment manufacturers, does not rest
entirely upon the cheaper price theory
Reports from the style ccnters in Paris
indicate that a wider use of cottons
has been sanctioned by fashion
originators.
Retail demand for cottons, accord
ing to merchants from various sections
of the country, has been stimulated
by the high prices for ready made gar
mcnts. Results from cotton goods
sales now in progress, say these mer-
chants, indicate that many women are
making their own garments for the
coming spring and summer season
instead Of purchasing their attire
already made up.
New-York tribune., 1920-02-14
LEATHER-Shoo Wholesalers
Rep0rt Record Breaking Orders

Wholesalers in the Brooklyn section
report record breaking orders for low
cut shoes Orders are being received
although many Of the companies forces
are greatly depleted because of the in
fucnza epidemic, shipments are larger
than ever before. The wholesalers and
jobbers in this section are beginning
to wonder whether the big business in
retailers in all parts Of the country are
relying on wholesalers more than ever
before, or whether it is on account Of
the growing prestige and accessibility
of the Brooklyn market.
The call for the better grades of mer-
chandise Of all kinds continues. Even
in rubber goods the demand for first
grades is far in excess of that for the
cheaper grades, and it is for this rea-
son that many Of the orders received
are being held up awaiting delivery, as
the better grades OF merchandise are
not plentiful on wholesalers floors.
Wholesalers at present are turning
their attention coward procuring stocks
Of womens footwear of the new shorter
vamp models. Most distributors have
adopted conservative policy in the
matter of vamp lengths and new
models. They believe that the safest
policy is to stand pat on their present
stocks and order the styles as they
grow popular. Vamps Of approxima ately
three and seven-eighths are the styles
they are banking on for considerable
part Of their prospective business.
Wholesalers also are stocking some
lines of the greatly abbreviated vamp
models, but believe that there will be
no great rush for these except on the
part of retailers III the larger cities.
The consensus of opinion in the
trade is that the four-inch and longer
vamps have had their inning, and there
is no little apprehension on the part Of
those who have stocked considerable of
the extremely long vamps and now find
no call for those patterns.

England Gets German Dyes

ready Been Received

LONDON, Feb. 5.--Great Britain is

that the present price, around SIG a
pound for good Japanese grades, al

be named when the opening prices are
quoted. The manufacturers take this
as an indication that these retailers
expect the demand for silks to con-
tlnue.
