MUST BE LIQUIDATION.

There must be liquida lion. But
In the present temper Of the public
II can easily be brought about with
out disaster. A year ago In their
optimism everybody was OVERRIDING
business. There Is danger, now that
the turn has come, that people may
make the same mistake In reverse
order: that they may overdo cur.
tailment. We have over 4 hundred
million people whose current wants
must be supplied. Manufacturers
should continue to make goods from
raw materials and reduce prices.
Merchants should supply themselves
with these goods in sufficient guam
titles to supply the public nceds.
People should continue TO do busi.
ness within very conservative lines,
OF course. A too sudden or too
severe curtailment Of production
would produce a scarcity which in
turn might produce advancing
prices. l have confidence in the
good sepse and good Judgment f
the American public, and believe
that we will reach a lower und
more stable level OF prices without
serious disaster"
Mr.. Hepburn pointed out that with
the living cost becoming less labor
can afford to accept a reduction in
wages.

New Cotton Goods Price Cut

was the result OF a desire to give
the big retailers definite price
basis upon which to operate during
their January white sales. In which
sheetings. sheets and pillowcases
play an important part.
Most OF the commission agents
are still distributing goods for i'm
mediate delivery on a memorandum
basis. On such goods jobbers are
fixing their prices to the retailer on
a basis OF what they expect new
mill prices to be. In the majorlty
of cases these prices are below the
last mill quotations.
Lower prices are not looked upon
with favor by the selling agents,
who assert that further reductions
will eat into profts at An enormous
rate. Large losses already have
been taken on cotton, yarns and
goods in stock, and the producers
are now anxious TO sell goods at
some sort OF a proft. Lower prices
however, II Is believed. will wipe
out the small margin OF proft .hat
some manufacturers have been try.
ing to make. Viewed IN this light,
a wider distribution OF goods at
the expense of price is not particu
lsrly welcome to the mill men.
