''Two-to-One'' Idea Gaining
in Favor as Commodities
Drop; Retailers Buying
Hope ofFrade Resumption

Stagnation in the textile and
kindred trades, which many factors
agree has reached a critical stage,
will be broken only when retailers
are forced into the market by empty
shelves, in the opinion Of several
prominent men in silk, wooden and
banking circles. The closeness with
which opinions now agree is clarity
ing the problem to some extent, but
is not working toward a quick solu-
ton
The situation, boiled down from
statements of several business men,
resolves itself INTO q determina-
ton of retailers not to make large
purchases, which producers Of mer-
chandlse insist are necessary to keep
the wheels Of industry turning until
prices have been stabilized. On the
other hand the manufacturers are i'm
bued with the idea that stabilization of
prices can come only from renewed pur-
chases by the retailer.
In the main, manufacturers have
demonstrated to themselves by actual
trials that further price cutting is
not an effective stimulant to business
activity. Also, they assert, present
prices are based, in most cases, on to-
days market for raw materials and
tiic present wage Scaie. mere nave
been some instances where manufac-
turers' price lists have been revised
in keeping with what they think the
raw material market is likely to be
in the near future.
In many quarters there is a grow
ing opinion that prices finally will
stabilize on a basis of about 100 per
cent above the level existing during
the two or. three years prior to the
outbreak of the war in 1914. The
"two-to Done" idea is much discussed in
the underwear trade. Apparently the
japanese government is making heroic
attempts to stabilize raw silk at about
double pre-war prices, insisting that
this IS the cost of production. Raw
wool has reached q lower price level
than some other raw products. B
supers are now quoted at 60 cents a
pound, against 40 in pre-war times.
Leather, according to tanners, is close
to 1913 end 1914 prices, and cotton
at close to 20 cents a pound for de-
livery two mo- tbs hence is only twice
the lO-cent level Of the years immedi-
ately preceding the war.

Business News
Stability in Textiles Believed
Nearer ON Twice 1914 Scale
Fall Sales Urged
To Speed Defation

Dehation is proceeding in an
orderly manner, according to a
circular issued to the trade by the
Smith McCord Townsend Dry
Goods Company, Kansas City,
Mo-, large wholesalers of dry
goods. There will be losses"
says the circular, but these
spread evenly over all industries
will save the situation.
4t must be apparent to all
merchants that the wholesaler
cannot assume the responsibility
for market changes and that he
cannot bear his own burden and
that of his customers. Manufac-
turers are standing the losses in
cldent to market changes on
stocks of material they own, the
wholesalers are doing likewise.
and, in spirit Of fairness, the
retailers must assume the depre-
clatlon upon their own stocks or
contracts they have outstanding.
In conclusion the circular advises
the retailer to hold fall sales and
replenish his stocks at new mar
ket levels.

Commercial Credit

Payments for fan goods due this
week are not being made with the
promptness that many credit men like
to see. The credit situation as viewed
by the wholesale credit men is re-
garded as strained, but not to an
alarming extent. 1t is realized that
many firms are finding it difficult to
raise ready cash with which to meet
their bills at present. 1t is hard to
turn stocks Of merchandise into capi
tai even at sacrifice prices. Bank pres
sure on speculative holders of mer-
chandise is still strong.
Commercial paper rates continued

THESE THREE MEN
SEIZED OPPORTUNITY
BY THE FORE-LOCK

The life Of X. W. Randol is not
without it's useful lesson.
Mr.. Randol's first requirement was
that of humility, which is a necessary
part OF the foundation Of every fu
ture.
The man who is always trying to
assume that he is what he is not,
lives a lie every day of his life, and
living lie will strangle every chance
for fortune.
That is the reason why tho dishon
est man always fails.
He is not on the square with him
self.
Mr.. Randol earned his first money
selling books. The education he got
was paid for out of the proceeds Of
selling books. He worked while 9th
ers played and today he has n hand
some home he has brick buildings,
he has cared well for his family and
gave them q hundred chances where
he never had one given to him except
us he made it himself
William Green has amassed a for
tune that would permit him to live
in Canada in the summer and Florida
in the winter, if he chose to do so
and WIN Green worked for years as
Il farm hand and drew down Il very
small wagc-probably less than $l5
a month. lie did not destroy his
mind and his health and his useful
ness with money-spending habits. He
saved and invested in real estate.
f,, a1a In
the fortune that Frank l'rensley made
in this city. When the opportunity
came to him To acquire almost the
entire first ward Of this city he was
living in Dexter, Texas. He did not
walt fer a fair day to come to close
his deal. He left on horseback and
crossed Red river in n driving rain
storm and came on 10 Ardmore, ar
irving here just after daylight after
night of riding through rain and
and mud ana darkness. Had lie not
left the hour he did the deal would
have gone to another, for the other
purchaser was on the ground.
In that one deal Frank Frensley
paved the way to the ownership or
plenty OF property for one man TO
own.
The story of these men is some
what the story OF every man in TINS
city who has done anything. In the
knowledge Of the writer there is not
a man in this city who has had for
tune given him but each one has
hewed out his own career. In the
lives Of every one there have been
many setbacks and dlscouragements
but in the overcoming strength mas
been developed and selfconfldence
has been more firmly established.
