Middle West Trade Recovery
Continues; Progress Is Slow
Insists Cut In Rail
Charges Is Necessary

One of the essentials to a revival
of American prosperity, according to
the Mechanics and Metals National
Bank of New York, is adequate
transportation at fair price, from
which the bank deduces that rail
road wages and rates must be
lowered.
"The railroads are seriously
handicapped to-day" says the bank
in a review of business conditions,
land will continue handicapped
until large drafts are made upon the
capital of the country to restore
their efficiency. SO long as wages
remain unduly high freight rates
must also remain unduly high in
order that the carriers may con-
tinue to operate at all. Granted a
reduction In running expenses, the
railroads will be able to present to
the industry of the country far
more efficient and reasonable serv-
ice than has been the case since the
war. and will be able again to at
tract the investment capital of the
country, to the end that they may
keep pace with expanding oppor-
tunities."

Finished Silk Prices
Buyers Expected to Demand an
Exclamation Soon

Whether raw silk declines, advances
or remains steady, buyers soon will call
upon manufacturers to explain their
prices on finished silks, in the opinion
of Joseph Berlinger manufacturer.
eve are faced with a peculiar situa-
ton said Mr.. Berlinger yesterday.
The entire market is now quoting fin
ished silks on prices based on raw silk
costs from rs cents to 81 less a pound
than prevailing costs. Now, if raw
silk drops, buyers of goods will expect
manufacturers to drop their prices,
which cannot be done unless the drop
exceeds 81. On the other hand, if raw
silk remains at its present figure, or ad-
vanccs, it is patent that finished goods
must advance, unless the manufacturer
is to sell at loss. Manufacturers have
not bought raw silk, except for filling in
purposes, for some time, and are still
basing their prices for finished goods Oh
raw silk where it was in January and
February"

Measure Similar to One Passed
by House, but Does Not Ex-
empt RELIGIOUS Refuoees

FROM The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, April 29.-The Sen
ate Committee on immigration to-day
ordered a favorable report on the
emergency bill for restriction of i'm
migration as it was passed last winter
and vetoed by President Wilson.
? On motion of Senator Sterling, the
Senate struck out all of the bill lately
passed by the House, after the enacting
clause and substituted the bill as Il
passed last winter. The House, in pass
ing the bill recently, made several i'm
portant amendments, one of which was
to exempt from the restrictions per-
sons subjected to religious persecu-
ton. This met opposition in the SEN
ate committee.
The bill is known as the Dillingham;
bill. The 3 per cent limitation on i'm
migration is the basic feature of both
the House and the Senate bills. The
date when the measure is to 20 into
effect was left open by the Senate
committee and will be fixed later.

Watching Clothing Prices
Chicago Producer Cuts Figures
for Fall 10 p. G..

Considerable speculation concerning
the price levels at which mems clothing
manufacturers will offer their lines for
next fall is taking place in both retail
and wholesale clothing fields. A lead
ing manufacturer in Chicago has shown
his fall samples, bearing prices said to
be about 10 per cent under those for
this springs goods. Reports from Roch-
ester indicate that sentiment among
manufacturers there is in favor of open
ing fall goods at a parity with spring
prices. Locally, manufacturers have
been lodging the price issue, and al
though samples are ready few of the
manufacturers have placed prices on
them.
1t is pointed out that cloth, Innings and
trimmings have shown little or no de-
cline since spring garments were first
offered last fall, and that labor is still
at the peak
