Daily Financial Gossip
By HOLLAND

New York, May 10.-( -(Special.)-Th lon, is quoted as having said that while the banking and credit situa- tion has undoubtedly improved and intimates that the situation may be other hand he does not discover any real industrial improvement. This statement has caused some comment in the financial section and some believe that MT. Mellon was misunder- stood. The governor of the federal reserve system, Mir Harding recently asserted that frozen credits which at one time were so great on obstacle in the path of industrial and trade inn provement are being gradually thawed out. When they are completely liquidated industry and business will be provided with a stimulant which will greatly aid them.
 All the reports which have come to New York within a week or 10 days and which as a whole cover almost all the country justify the belief that industrial improvement has begun. Some of the leaders in industry of whom A. c. Bedford is type have asserted that the peak of depression was passed some weeks ago.
 In the middle west there is undoubt- ed improvement The great manufac- turing centers Detroit, Chicago, To- ledo and Dayton report gains in the number of employees. Four industries prominent in the middle west which are now recovering from depression have reemployed within a short time nearly 50,000 men wkom it was neces sary to lay off when the industrial depression was at it's peak.
 The American Meat Packing in stitute has reported that If the meat packing industry can be regarded as barometer showing charges in the industrial situation, then American business is justified in finding encour- agement in the April developments
 For two weeks the securities mar ket in New York seems to have re- flected the feeling of encouragement which prevails throughout the country It may be that this Is a momentary upward movement in that market. But even if it be only temporary, it has been maintained long enough to justify the belief that the great market where securities are dealt in has been recog- rizing many of the encouraging con

meeting the man of her heart and her subsequent battles to have and to hold him despite her totally unsatisfactory maternal antecedent. Another interesting twist to the narrative is her discovery of her own father, who proves to be very interesting character. A splendid sus- pense is maintained until the very end of the picture.
 The cast supporting Miss Stewart de- serves special commendation. Ralph Lewis Myrtle Stedman, James Morri- son and William v. Mong all handle i'm portant roles most acceptably. MT. Lewis as Brabazon. the father of the unfor- tunate girl, gives an exceptionally fine performance, while Miss Stedman as the wayward mother succeeds in doing her best work as an emotional artist.

"S0WING THE WIND" AT THE TRIANON
 ONE OF THE SEASONS BEST PICTURES

Sowing the Wind" which has Anita Stewart as it's charming star is pleasing
 large crowds at the Trianon, and is being received with unmstakable approval by large audience. It can be classified as one of the really good pictures of the current season, and it is of more than
 the usual appeal since it contains all the elements which go to make up modern
 picture of ceaseless action. Miss Stew
 art, by finished performance in her portrayal of the charactet of a beauti- fully innocent girl whose mother is a 'aueen' of jewellers in notorious gam- bling house, commands hearty sympathy.
 She registers the changing emotions of a girl in such a predicament with fine shading and no one can go away from the theatre without taking the feeling that it makes no difference what ob- stacles an evil fate may place in the way of human being there can come hap piness ultimately. The most interesting phase of the story hinges upon the girl

Through this institution all the wool which was turned over to it in ls2O has been marketed. No other organ : ization in the country engaged Tn similar occupation has been able to match this achievement of the Ohio Wool warehouse. The marketing was not made possible through a. lowering of price. Instead better average price was obtained than any secured by other selling agencies. So success ful has ben the Ohio Wool warehouse that propositions have been made to it's managers to hanadle the clips of several other fleece wool states. This institution is now prepared to handle TO- 000.0 900 pounds.
 FIGHTING AGAINST SHODDY
 The National Sheep and Wool Bu- reau of the United States is now busily occupied in a campaign which. if 1t be successful will compel all makers or so-called all wool cloth to label that cloth with a distinguishing mark so that if it contains shoddy, 1t will be impossible to deceive a customer. Penalties will follow failure to cover this law. So great is the interest in this campaign that Senator Capper and Congressman French have re-intro- duced bill for the consideration of Congress which, if it be enacted into law, will be as successful in prevent ing the concealment of shoddy in so- called "all WOOL as is the law which compels the makers of oleomargarine distinctly to label their products so that it cannot be marketed as real butter.
 Although it is fact that the woolen manufacturing industries have been gaining business, although six or eight months ago this industry was almost stagnant, nevertheless the American wool growers are experiencing stag nation far greater than any other which in earlier years they were com pelled to face. There has been a vast accumulation of wool Sheep in large numbers have been sold to the packers, because it was not profitable to keep them for wool In the state of Wyo- ming about 500, 900 sheep have been sold to the packers because of the stagnation condition of the wool grow ing industry. Probably this will be greatly relieved when the new tariff law is enacted.
 |, Undoubtedly when this embarrass- ment is ended. as it will be, the public will again buy wooden clothes in large. amounts, although it has not been due entirely to the attitude talk en by the public towards American woolens that this stagnation has been caused, The world is pouring or has been pouring enormous amounts of wool into the United States, and this has resulted in a harmful accumula- tion of wool. The United States should be and probably in time will be one of the chief wool producing countries of the world. But at present our wool growers say that they cannot com- pete with wools clipped in other coun- tries because the cost of production elsewhere is less than it is In this country.

NEW OPPOSITION
 TOSALES TAXLAW
Representative of National Credit Mems Body Makes
 Strongest Fight
By Associated Press

Washington, May 1O.-opposition to enactment of general sales tax law developed today at 6 hearing before the Senate finance committee. At prev ious. sessions only arguments in sup port of the plan had been given.
 The strongest opposition to a levy on gross sales was offered by P. c. Elliott of Chicago. representing the National Association of Credit Men. Its application to government regu- lated industries also was attacked by Phillip H. Gadsden of Philadelphia who spoke for the National Electric Light association. the American Gas association and the American Electric Railway association.
 Mir. Elliott laid down several specific reasons against employment of the new form of taxation. He declared it would require an entirely new tax ficult of definition so that it's admin istration would be an added burden on the internal revenue bureau
 Supporters of the proposition, he added, contended that the tax would be passed on to the ultimate consumer in the additional tax. This feature. he said, was menacing, In that, if passed on, the tax burden would fall largely on the necessities of life and upon persons least able to pay.
 MT. Gadsden declared it physical impossibilitN to assess a sales tax on street car fares or an electricity or .sas through pre- payment meters His discussion, however, was not confined solely to the sales tax, as he went sfield to tell the committee of the re quirements of regulated industries and urged the appointment of subcom mlttee to make a thorough and broad study Of taxation of public utilities such companies, he said are required 10 operate on fixed basis of receipts without regard to economic conditions ana ne contended it was only fair tney pc considered separately in the
