PENNSYLVANIA TOWN
STARTS Law AGAINST
ITINERANT statesmen

The first city ordinance to discour-
age itinerant statesmen from renting
a vacant store room to conduct a sale
for a few days and then to depart for
new territory was adopted by Lam
caster, Pa, in 1906. 1t required itin-
Grant statesmen to pay a license fee
for month or any part of it. The
maximum penalty for failure to pro-
cure a license is a 30-day Jail SEN
tence and a fine of 500 and court
costs.
A Boston ordinance demands a Ii
cense fee and a bond of $500. The
latter serves as guarantee that the
travelling merchant will not swindle
the local public.
The St. Joseph, Mo, law requires
the payment OF 800 to cover a license
for the first ten days and so day
thereafter.
. Detroit Law
In Detroit agents selling directly to
consumers are debarred from showing
goods in hotels or show rooms.
In Fit. Wayne. Terre Haute, Roches,
ter, Dayton, Columbus, Grand Rapids
Des Moines. Harrisburg and Milwau
kee the lot of the itinerant is hard
one because of difficulty in securing
accommodations and because of other
obstacles placed in his way.
1t is understood that most of these
laws were enacted to protect local
merchants from the swarms of pro
moters who toured the country shortly
after the war offering all kinds of sur
plus stocks of goods at prices often
below those of the local retail stores
due to the absence of overhead in the
expenses of the itinerant.

letters to all members of congress ex-
pressing opposition to the proposal
to provide a duty on lumber in the per-
manent tariff bill which is to be in
troduced this summer.
Representative Knutson calls atten-
ton to the fact that an average duty of
$500 per thousand feet on lumber
would produce less than $4,000, 900 In
revenue, while IT. would place an IN
necessary burden of approximately
$8O,OO0.OO0 on the American users Of
lumber. is it worth while?" he asks.
The American people consume be-
tween thirty.six and forty billion feet
OF lumber per year, Knutson states,
while the U. S. forestry bureau re-
ports that the annual growth of lum-
Der in the United States is less than
six billion feet annually Knutson
states that the congress each year ap-
propriates about 100000 for refor-
estration and for protection of timber
lands. and, he says, every piece Of
lumber imported into this country

manufacturers, taking advantage Of

dollars. He says that in some instan-
ces their profits exceeded 100 per cent.
He declares that in view of that fact
those manufacturers are not entitled
to special tariff consideration. In part
Representative Knutson's letter reads:
1T is estimated that there is a short
age of 1.225, 900 homes in the United
States at the present time. This condi-
ton has resulted in overcrowding, i'm

Knutson states that there is today
only about three billion feet of lumber
at the saw mills available for building
purposes. He says that in view of the
present housing shortage it is imper

normal proportions; that if a duty is
