Christmas Shoppers Are Back
of Disarmament Conference.
Big Reduction in Prices Since
Last Year.
TOPEKAAS SHOPPING EARLY
German Made Goods Are Com
ing Back Here.
Firms Are Meeting
the Foreign Competition.

II the attitude OF the Christmas
shoppers liz Topeka is representative
of the people in the UhQited States. the
entire country is back of the disarma-
ment conference, as there is very lit
tie demand for war toys.
The majority of Topekans are shop
ping much earlier than last year. The
stores will not be kept open later than
the regular closing time this year, un-
less it is the last two or three days
before Christmas. as the merchants
find the late Christmas shopping is
merely a habit
Many Imported Toys.
Many imported toys are being sold
this year, and as a result there is a
large reduction in the price since last
year. The old American firms manu-
featuring toys are meeting the foreign
competition by manufacturing more
finished products. For example, in
the making of toy automobiles. they
have added lifting hoods and dummy
motors. In the toy telephone line they
are now putting out telephones that
will ring when the receiver is lifted.
According to information received
by merchants in Topeka. more books
and games are sold here than any part
of the country. The reason is not
known.
Few Japanese Toys
During the war the American mar
-kets were flooded with japanese toys.
but the japanese merchants missed
the important point of manufacturing &
toys of quality, and now the market
for japanese toys is practically wiped
out. Many American firms had to
close down for the same reason.
At Ait Nurembu-g. Germany. the
home Of dolls as many of those toys
are being manufactured as before the
war. The making of dolls is a spe-
cialized work there, and much of the
work is done in the home by the boys
and girls.
Because of their care in inspecting
goods for foreign trade, the German
toys are now beginning to regain their
former standing on the American
market, says one Topeka merchant.
The American wooden and toy
furniture is supreme in its field. The
wheel goods, which have heretofore
been manufactured of wire and wood
are now being made of metal.
In the line of expensive dolls the
American walking dolls are the most
popular on the market. Some Of the
toys which have just recently been
placed on the market are genuine
cedar chests. which are copper plated.

and mechanical grindeES.
