the country. Buyers are holding
off In anticipation of lower prices.
although the reports for the Phila-
deiphia district are to the effect
that manufacturers believe higher
prices are to be expected, as pro-
duction costs do not warrant reduc-
tions."
On the situation in the cotton
and wool textile field the review
says:
The cotton textile field continues
to show uncertainty. The market
for cotton yarns is unsettled. In
the Philadelphia district surplus
stocks are being sold at some sac
rifices for practically whatever they
will bring. The outlook when trad
ing is resumed on large scale is
problematical, depending largely
on the coming cotton crop. In cot
ton goods the public stand against
high prices is having an important
influence. Manufacturers of cotton
goods are in some cases closing
plants, although many concerns are
running on old orders which should
keep them going until autumn.
Lack OF confidence is reported
throughout the textile Industry in
the Philadelphia district. Adjust
ment of the wool market now is
In progress, and during the past
month there has been a complete
cessation Of buying. No established
price for raw wool exists.

COMPLAINT AGAINST NAT.
BISCUIT co. DISMISSED

The Federal Trade Commission
announced yesterday that its for
nal complaint of unfair competf-
tion against the National Biscuit
Company, New York City. has been
9ismissed by the commission upon
Its own motion.
The trial of the case developed.
that the National Biscuit Company
practices a method Of competition
In Interstate commerce generally
known as the cumulative quantity
discount" that Is to say, deducts
from the price of goods purchased
from IL, a discount rate established
by it upon condition that such pur-
chaser shall have bought within
Given period a certain quantity of
goods. which method of compet-
ton was alleged in the commissions
complaint to have the intent and
tendency OF an exclusive dealing
contract. 1t appears in this case
that the company confines its cai-
culations of the quantity discount
allowances to periods not in excess
of one calendar month andFthat.
therefore the tendency of sucn
practice to create an exclusive
dealing relationship and to restrict
competition is negligible.
The complaint was dismissed unon
the foregoing facts. without preju--
dice to the right Of the commission
TO rule against the cumulative
quantity discount principle when
applied to different state of facts.

''The industrial situation is marked
by the same adverse tendencies

says the review in discussing con-

There has been a depression in
shoes and leather. Tanning is in

years shoes will show a material

The same conditions are reported
