The direct evidence Of conspiracy
consisted OF the testimony of n F.

and Gilbert's at St. Paul somewhat

its policy. Defendants were together
at league headquarters in st. Paul,
where both had Offices. Townley was
president and Gilbert had charge OF
the organization work of the league.
Teigen took orders from both. He

CHICAGO, September 21.-The bad
habits formed when business came
easily and without the asking are
being slowly broken by business men
in this section. "How do you find
business?" a Chicago merchant was
asked today. by going after It," he
replied, and that system is being
more closely followed in this section
with most beneficial results. Business
is not coming easily. however. Large
buyers are beginning to look to Ger
many for cheap goods. Jobbers OF
gloves and stockings of the cheaper
grades are seeking to place large or.
ders with some success. Makers OF
these and similar articles are run
ming their mills almost at capacity,
but buyers are demanding lower
prices.
Shoe manufacturers here are run
ming practically at capacity with
good demand in evidence. Jobbers
find buyers, who are very plentiful
very careful about prices. Paper
dealers, who were most Independent
year ago, are scurrying for busi-
ness, with prices lowering. Book
paper may be had in any quantity,
but not yet at 1914 prices.
Unemployment is difficult to meas
ure with so many labor conferences
in progress. Agencies report five ap-
plicants for every two Jobs and ad-
wise any one who has any kind OF q
job to stick to it

Busfness Notes.

PITTSBURGH, September 81 (Spe-
cial) Of the long post
poned revival in building activities
are seen here in the awarding of a
contract within a few days for an ad-
dition to a department store which
will cost approximately $3.000.000 and
in the formation Of additional units
to build homes through the Chamber
Of Commerce Building Corporation:
Two clubs also have announced that
they will spend approximately ST.
100000 in additions to their present
buildings.
PHILADELPHIA, September 81
Especially six per cent is the maxi
mum rate of interest allowed in
Pennsylvania and loans on mortgages
for home building purposes are now
being placed at that rate: These
mortgages in many cases. however.
are accompanied by side agreements
by which the mortgage Is to be paid
a commission of l per cent year
for three years, the usual term OF
the loan. This makes the real rate
per cent, although the mortgagee
assumes payment of the state tax
of four mills on the dollar. Funds
are available for building construc-
tion at this rate. but while the ar
rangement appeals to home builders
in many instances, 1t has not served
to induce construction on q big scale
for hustness buildings.

Average of Retail Buying
Good in Philadelphia Area

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, September 21.-
Managers Of the large department
stores here stated today that while on
some days business Is very dull and
customers few. on other days trade Is
extraordinarily good and that the aver
age Of retail buying is holding UP very
well. The late summer furniture sales
in most stores fell of slightly In re-
ceipts from those Of last season. but a
greater volume of furniture was sold
than in the similar period OF 1920.
Building is showing more activity.
The permits issued SO far this year ex-
ceed those for the entire twelve months
Of 1920, but there Is no move yet to
start work on large structures in the
business sections, plans for which have
been approved and which call for an ex-
penditure Of many millions Of dollars.
There is little relief to unemployment
in this section. One shipyard in Will
mington. Del. has just announced a
third cut in wages since February. The
decrease this time approximates 10 per
cent. So many modern ships are idle
that antiQuated craft are going to the
scrap heap.
While statistics show an increase in
food costs here, one local store adver-
tises meats at a reduction Of 80 to SO
per cent below last years prices.

NPPONENTs Of tariff revision are trying To make a
" great deal Of the fact that our exports for the
fiscal year ended June 80 show falling of Of 81 6OOO0O0O
compared with the previous fiscal year, and they are
citing this as a proof that the prospect of a pro-
ectve tariff works decrease IN export trade some-
thing that intelligent wfmingtonians cannot accept.
II exports fell OF something a billion and haf,
imports likewise fell of about the same figure, being
100000 this year. compared with $52ss 10000 for
1920
The fall in exports was TO be expected Europe has

They are no longer dependent upon the United States
The OF imports is about what forecasted by
the Republicans than two years ago, and it is what
may normally be expected for years to come
under tariff protection for it is TO borne in mind that
last year at least three OF sernest competitors
severely handicapped in their export trade.
Great Britain has been passing through the hroes Of
Industrial rebellion; Japan has but Just weathered
financial crisis and Germany has only begun TO rehab-
tate herself the markets Of the world Of the United
States.
It is on the basis Of percentages that foreign trade
should be considered

STATE USES MUCH
GASOLINE YEARLY

According TO the records Of w.
Truxton Boyce. Federal prohibition
director for Delaware, permits for
$50 gallons Of alcohol are issued
here each month. This makes a total
OF 5000 gallons a year.
Most Of the liquor purchased for
use in Delaware is used for medi-
cinal purposes-the majority Of per-
mits being classed as "medhated al
cohol for external use unfit for bev-
erage purpose" other alcohol is
for use as. Sacramental wine in
churches throughout the State. while
still other alcohol is used for labora-
tory purposes But none of It Is
for drinking.
There are about ITS men in this
state who receive permits for liquor
per month. To secure the alcohol,
the person wanting it must fill out
an application blank, which is turn
ed over to the Federal office. II the
mans character is found to be good
with no complaints against him
the permit is issued. the necessary
papers being made out by the ofics
and forwarded TO the vendor anc
vendea.
The permit limits the purchaser
to the use which he may make o.

he will live up to the limitations ex'
pressed in the permit
