Expect Cut in Cotton Goods
Trade Looks for New Price Lists
hN MiiIs Soon

Anticipation Of lower prices on
branded bleachcd cotton goods is be-
lieYed to have actuated Clahin's, Inc,
yesterday TO announce slight reductions
on a wide range of this class of fab
RIGS. The prices are from IS to ~ cents
a yard below the last list prices issued
by mills.
Rumors that new prices on bcached
goods arc to be made soon by leading
mills have been current in the market
for some time. Following the issuance
of new price lists on January l there
was a wave Of buving which placed the
production Of most mills up to April
or later on orders. Since that time
gray or unfinished fabrics had drop
Of 10 per cent, followed by d slight re-
covery. In the main, present gray
goods prices are below those of Janu-
AIRY i. Buying of bleached goods lately
has been on reduced scale and it is
believed that few of the large mills
have orders TO carry them through an
other month

When the Federal Reserve System
was set up by Congress it was
fondly imagined by many good men
that the control of the money and
credit of this country had been
transferred from a small selfish
clique in Wall Street to the people
of the United States. This has not
been the result of the operation of
the system, however. Instead, the
wonderful Federal Reserve machin-
cry has been turned over to the
very men it was intended to curb,
and they are using it with unbeliev-
able ruthlessness to deprive the
producers of the country of the
fruits of their industry.
No thinking man can longer doubt
the existence of a thoroughly or
ganized and disciplined Money Trust
with qualifications that reach into
every city and hamlet in the land.
The existence of such a power is a
menace to our political and indus
trial liberties, and there can be no
such thing as freedom anywhere
until this un-American thing has
been destroyed, root and branch
