Knit Goods Crisis Near
Opening Approaching With
Deadlock on Prices

A crisis in the knit underwear manu-
featuring industry is drawing nearer
with the short time left for manufac-
turers to book orders for spring gar
ments Spring lines. which normally
are shown and sold in July. are still
withheld from the market, but indica-
tions point to the opening of sample
lines soon.
The old deadlock on prices which
has kept buyers out of the market for
such a lengthy period apparently is
TO nearer solution than it was two
months ago. Buyers feel that the new
prices should be not more than 100 per
cent above pre-war levels, while manu-
facturers assert that manufacturing
costs to-day make anything less than
200 per cent increase impossible.
Despite the decline in raw cotton
and yarn prices, say the manufacturers,
advances in other factors entering into
the cost of production have more than
offset these reductions. 1t is pointed
out that wage in the industry have
increased 35 PER cent since August,
1919, in additiS7 to shortening of
working hours. The increased freight
rates, the manufacturers argue, also
have added to the overhead expense.

Paci6c Coast
Rebukes Attack
On Marine Act
Foreign Propaganda Fails;
Senator Jones Strongly
Supported; Endorsement
Given to Shipping Board

Following exposure of the fact that
foreign propaganda has been chiefly
responsible for the attacks made on
the merchant marine act on the Pa
cifc Coast, public sentiment in that
section, which had been somewhat
hostile to the measure, has undergone
a change, recent developments indicate
denomination of Senator Wesley l..
Jones, of Washington, against whom
the brunt Of the attacks was directed
as the sponsor of the merchant marine
act, is regarded as strong evidence
that the weight of public opinion in
that state favors the development Of
American shipping. With three candi-
dates against him in the Republican
primaries, Senator Jones secured more
than twice as many votes as his closest
competitor and a majority over all the
candidates. His reelection to the
United States Senate is regarded as
certain.
One Of the outstanding incidents of
the campaign made by Senator Jones
was meeting held at the Tacoma
Commercial Club, at which the Senator
made an address on the merchant
