Trade Depression Reflected
In Sharp Fire Loss Increase
Says Stabiiizati0n
Is Being Retarded

Although business sentiment is
hopeful, according to the monthly
business review issued by D. C.
Mills, chairman Of the board of the
Cleveland Federal Reserve Bank.
complete sterilization is being OBJ
structed.
Some kinds of business do not
welcome eNposition,p he says in the
review, "and unjust criticism is Ger
tainly n poor medium to restore
public confidence, much needed
factor in trade at present. But will
business stability be reached bv con-
tinually pouring oil on troubled
waters, rather than endeayoring to
find the cause for the waves?
"Financially, conditions are sound
No big factor is operating against
satisfactory stabiIization, but the
fact remains that business is still
convaiescing. Complete acclimation
to such tremendous changes as
have been occurring during the
last few months has not been ex-
pected. However, there is too much
sand in the gears of business ma
chinery for smooth running and
friction is resulting."

Easier TO Burn Out Than
Sell Out" Again Rules
Situation, Says Report
on Business Conditions

Reflection of the commercial depres-
sion is seen in the great jump in fire
losses reported for 1920, presented yes
| terday at the fifty-hfth annual meeting
of the National Board of Fire Under
writers at the Waldorf Astoria. The
report o. President Charles Lyman
Case, read by Vice President John b.
Morton, placed the fire loss in this
country last year at more than $500
100000 or about $1,370000 a day, the
largest in the history of the country,
with the exception of the year of the
San Francisco FIRE
The committee on statistics reported
the per capita loss at $3.50 last year.
against $2,71 for the five-year period
from 1916 to 1919. Sheboygan, Wis.
led the country with per capita loss
of $9l.3l; Galveston, Tex, was second
with Sb0l9 and Maiden, Mass, third,
with $3.50.
"The readjustment of business con-
dltons," said the report, appears to
have prompted the old adage that 1T
ls easier to burn out than to sell out"
In New York City, the great whole
sale center OF the country, the number
'ot fires IN lace and embroidery houses
increased 400 per cent in 1920, com
pared to 1919. In the shirt Industry
the increase @ss 3S5 per cent; in wool
en- and worsted goods, 500 per cent; in
paper boxes, $40 per cent, and in wom-
ems clothing and womens and cfil-
dren's furnishings, 229 per cent.
In his report President Case said
that so per cent of the fire loss was
covered by, insurance, but he depre-
Gated this loss as a great CONNIE ercial
burden, and added that much of it
could have been prevented by proper
safeguards. He also made plea for
reduction of taxation.
The actuarial bureau reported rec
ords Of more than $4,000 suspicious
fires In the United States in the last
four years, the committee reported,
1000 convictions for arson have been
obtained.
John B. Morton. ce-president, was
elevated to the presidency to succeed
Mr.. Case, who refused to consider
second nomination.

To Continue Wool Fight
Growers Protest Re-enactmen1
of Schedule Il

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, May 26. .-
The fight of the National Wool Grow
ers' Association against the reGnact-
ment of the old Schedule K of the
Payne-Aldrich tariff law made this
spring before the House Ways and
Means Committee will be continued
until the new permanent tariff legisla-
ton is enacted, according to a state
ment made to-day by F. r. Marshall,
secretary of the association. The or
ganizaticnswill ask that the permanent
wool tariff be made on the clean CON
tent of the wool, rather than on the
basis OF the Payne-Aldrich law.
Under the Old law, Mr.. Marshall said,
the duty was II cents a pound on wool
in the grease, from which basis, allow
ing for 66 2-3 per cent shrinkage, a
duty of 33 cents a pound was imposed
on secured wool. The Tariff Commits
sion reported that the average shrink
age of South American and Australian
wool, the principal countries from
which wool imports come, was but 48
per cent, while many South American
woods shrink only 20 per cent
