Tire Trade Improving


AKRON, Ohio, March 29.-Improve-
ment in the automobile industry. told
in Associated Press dispatches yester-
day from Detroit, was reflected to-day
in the tire industry in the Akron man
ufacturing district.
Increase in sales to manufacturers of
about 70 per cent for April over March
and a decided jump in dealers business
has resulted in the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber Company announcing an in
crease in production amounting to 33
per cent. This company will turn out
10000 castings and 10000 tubes day in
April, as against 10000 castings and
$4,000 tubes in March. The new pro-
duction is one-half of the peak reached
year ago. Twelve hundred former
Goodyear employees who are living in
Akron will return to work next week.

In addition to sufrerinp fron, *.
general industrial depression. doll
makers are feeling German competi-
.ion snat they fear threatens to ruin
ne inaustry In one day recently out
g. easne 1aiiures reported in this dis
herman competition is felt in dolls
particularly, but also in other tovs
terials. "a" MA
ihls condition, according to 7 T..
asmperg of the firm of Louis Amberp
Son, and president of the Doll and
Stuffed Toy Manufacturers Association
IS aue to what member of his asso-
cation has termed the cham and egr''
value of the German mark.
Mr. Amberg, who recently investi
gated conditions in the toy trade in
europe, asserts that although German
marks can be bought in this countrv
at about 1853 cents mark, the pur
chaslng power of the mark in Ger
many is about s cents in our money.
Average wages in Germany, he saws.
are about $50 marks week, and in
some cases as low as as marks a
week
Under these conditions the Germans
can and are shipping goods into this
country at such low prices that no
tariff would enable American manu-
facturers to compete with them, the
Americans say. AS result the Amer
lean bisoue doll, jointed doll and tin
and other metal toy business is be-
iieved to be threatened with destruc-
ton.
Citing specific instances, he asserted
that German 60-centimeter bisaue
dolls, which compare with the 24-inch
doll made in this country, are being
sold by importers at from $21 to S22. so
a dozen, against the lowest price
quoted by American manufacturers of
from 500 TO $78 a dozen. An imitation
kid doll, he said, is offered by the Ger
mans, delivered in this country at $3.50
a dozen, whereas the best price an
American manufacturer can quote is
$50 dozen.
"We are not complaining over taking
our medicine in the general industrial
Depression" said MI. Amberg yester-
day, speaking for the doll makers, "but
New-York tribune., 1921-03-30

we do think that some special legisla-
ton should be passed to end this ruin
Gus competition. The doll trade is de-
moralized. Other trades are suffering
as we'll. A short time ago I saw metal
goods, lamps, etc, offered by German
concerns to buyers here, at prices that
are fully third of American manu-
facturers' prices. In goods for which
the Germans have to buy their raw
materials from the outside the compe-
ttition is not keen, because of the low
buying power of the mark abroad. The
80 per cent duty proposed in England
on imports of German goods into Great
Britain will only increase the flow of
German goods to this country"
Before the war, added Mr.. Amberg,
American doll manufacturers success
fully competed with the Germans.

FRANCE LIKELY
TO DEMAND NAVY
EQUAL TO JAPS
Attitude on Land Armament
Indicates She May BaLk
Again.
Special to Indiana Daily Times
and Philadelnhia Public Ledger.


WASHINGTON, Dec 9-Not content
with a stand which virtually has elm
mated the discussion Of land ornaments
from the present conference, the French
delegation is preparing to be no less IN
conciliatory when the discussion of naval
limitations is extended to France and
Italy.
France, It is understood, viii demand
the conference recognize her right to
have a navy the equal of Japan, pro-
gram which if carried out, would con-
template the construction of many French
capital ships during the next ten years.
As viewed in the highest quarters here,
the French proposal can serve only to
set up new and Unforeseen difficulty in
the way OF the success of the confer
ence. Its prospect is not being regard
ed with the tolerance which greeted
Frances plea for the maintenance Of
large army. If the French persist, they
