for some time been the habitat OF mag
azines and book publishers, but the tex
tile business, particularly the silk in
dustry, is rapidly driving them west OF
Fifth avenue Seventh avenue with its
development of fine modern s!Syscrapers
is the logical nesting place for them, au-
thorities declare In like manner the
paper trade is beginning TO get foot
hold on lower Seventh avenue and on
the adjacent cross streets. This is also
true of the wholesale drug trade.
In tho opinion OF Charles Duross. an
authority on the development Of Seventh
avenue between Fourteenth and Twenty
third streets, the avenue will not be
dominated by any particular trade.
Fourth avenue is now practically given
over to silk and other textile showrooms.
Mr.. Duross expects to gee some Of the
textile interests move over to Seventh

Labor costs have been somewhat re-

that the increase In the volume OF home
