Raw Silks Quieter
Buyers Unwilling to Follow Adj
vances, SAYS CwaIter

Business in the local raw silk market
is quieter and restricted to current
needs of the mills, according to the
weekly report by H. L. Gwalter & Co.
"The rapid rise of silver and of the
Italian exchange lately" says the re-
view, "has considerably increased the
lay-down costs, and buyers are less
willing to go on at the advance. On the
other hand, spot silk in importers
hands in the qualities and sizes most
wanted is scarce, commanding notable
premium, which accounts for wide
disparity in prices and gives the mar
ket an irregular appearance.
Cable advices from Europe report
the Milan market quiet. The Yoko-
hama market continues moderately ac-
tive for American account, but quiet
for Europe. Prices are firm and un-
changed. The Canton market is quiet
er, but firm. The Shanghai market re-
ports considerable business in steam
filaturea for American account and
prices in consequence show great firm
ness"

Raw Wool Still i'm
Unsettled Condition
improvement in Goods Trade
Not Reflected in Fiber Mar
ket: Supplies Large

Raw wool and the wooden and worsted
yarn markets have not yet reacted to
any appreciable extent to the forward
orders on the books of cloth manufac-
turers. The latter are still chary of
committing themselves to large orders
for raw materials, and in some cases
financial inability is given as the chief
reason for the hesitancy in buying wool
or yarns. A few of the manufacturers
of winter underwear are reported to
have gone into the yarn markets for
small lots of yarns, thus providing a
slightly augmented activity.
Supplies of wool in this country, in
England and in Australia and South
America are large, and this is the most
depressing factor in the market Sup
plies here have been increased greatly
by importations in anticipation of. a
tariff. One authority estimates that
200,000000 pounds Of foreign woods
have come into the country IN the last
five months.
Wool men, however, are confident
that the orders on the books of cloth
manufacturers for goods to be delivered
up into September will mean a steady
drain on accumulated supplies and
probably accounts for the tirmness of
present quotations.

N. Y. Workers. Earnings Up
Weekly Wage Shows First Ad-
vance Since October

ALBANY, April 21.-For the first
time since last October a gain in the
average weekly earnings of workers in
New York State factories was reported
in the March returns made to the New
York State Department of Labor. The
increase from February to March was
20 cents in the average weekly wage,
bringing it up to $26.97 Compared with
March, 1920, the wage shows a reduc-
ton Of 80 cents. The most conspicu-
Gus reductions since a year ago are
S4.24 in jewelry and silverware and
1926 in glassware.
The principal gains in average
weekly earnings from February to
March appear in structural and archi-
tectural iron, autom obiles, shipbuild-
ing, fur goods, miscellaneous leather
goods, mems clothing and women's
clothing. Each of these gains exceeds
81 and is the result of increases in
working time. The March average
weekly earning in the mems clothing
industry, in spite Of an increase of
S2.77 over February, is still nearly 81
lower than the average of year ago.
Decreases in average earnings of 81
to 50 from February to March appear
in the brick, brass and copper, shoe and
canning industries.

Brooklyn Plants Now Run.
ming From 80 to 1OOP.C.
of Capacity; Big Summer
Season Expected by Trade

The shoe manufacturing trade taken
as whole Is running nearer normal
than 1t has at any time since last
summer. Most Of the factories in
Brooklyn devoted to manufacturing
women's high grade footwear are run
ming at least 80 per cent of capacity,
and several Of them report full work
ing forces.
The slight let down that occurred
Immediately after Eeaster has passed
away under the influence of more "at
once" orders from retailers. Some
factories have had to turn down busi-
ness in the last few weeks. The sales
manager in this district for a Massa-
chusetts shoe factory that makes q
second rate line of women's fancy
footwear was unable to book an order
offered him calling for 1000 pairs of
shoes to be delivered within the next
month.
The improvement in the mems trade
has been less conspicuous. New styles
principally variations of the brogue
effects, and including the new soft toe,
have stimulated sales to a great ex-
tent, and the outlook in the mems shoe
trade, according to manufacturers and
retailers, is for a strong fall and
winter season on fancy styles, preceded
by good season on sports shoes.
Much of the current business now
flooding the womens shoe factories
calls for strictly summer shoes. Re-
tailers and wholesalers, in anticipation
of good season in sports footwear
are ordering these types heavily. The
all-white footwear has given way tc
combinations Of white with colored
trimmings.

gradual and healthy resumption
OF confidence In the dry goods trade
Is forecast in the latest Market
Service Letters issued by the Ma

citation.
I'm view Of the price defiation
which has taken place so thorough
~ IN these lines covering a ten
months period beginning in June,

GAS the inability Of the consumer
to buy goods at the peak prices was
one of the causes of the break in

gest that the purchasing power

Wants to Sell Libcrtys

Question: am holding $1,000 worth OF
Az per cent and Az per cent United

of selling now. bought tho bonds about
a ycar ago. My idea is to Invest this
money In short term bonds or n safe In
vostment stock which would bring me n
higher interest. VIII you please give mo
your advice u. N.
Answer-You can get many good
short-term bonds that will yield higher
rates than your Liberty bonds. When
they come due, however, the security
market may not offer the opportunities
that now offers. In the mean time
oyur Liberties, we believe. will in

have higher yield, Standard Oil pre-
ferred stock Of New Jersey pays per

consider it a good investment.

Chicago & Alton S1as

Ouestion-Do you think it advisable,
from the point of view of safety and
hancement in value, to sell New York Cen
trail stock. investing the proceeds in stock
of the Southern Pacific Company, the New
York Central having been purchased at a.
price above par? Would you advise one
holding 90 shares of Atchison, Topeka &,
Santa Fe common to sell at present
prices and buy Atchison collateral 5s
which are about the same price? What
do you think the best course to be taken
by a woman the bulk of whose funds are
invested in railroad stock, most OF them
purchased at much higher prices. the
stocks being Atchison common, New York
Central Southern Pacific and Norfolk G.
Western common? Should any or all Of
these stocks be sold at present prices?
Can you give me any Information about
West Penn Railway 5s?-R. S.
Answer-If the present Admnistra-
ton at Washington is able to do any
thing to help railroad situation, and
they have declared their intention of
trying to do so, Atchison, New York
Central Southern Pacific and Norfolk
e. Western should return toward the
investment position they held the
woman in question bought them. They
are among the best of the railroads.
The chance that bond market values
may also show enhancement is factor

Farmers Petition
Harding to Call All
Heads of Industry
Conference Declared Neces-
sary TO Devise Plan to
Remedy Conditions; Full
Cooperation Is Pledged
From, The Tribune. Washington Bureau

From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, April 81. The
President was asked to-day by repre-
sentatives of the National Farmers
Union to call conference of the heads
Of finance, the coal and oil industries,
railroads and Of labor, to cooperate
with the farmers in an effort to remedy
the industrial evils prevalent through
out the country. Nearly $50 repre-
sentatives of farmers organizations
called at the White House. and through
their secretary, A. c. Davis, presented
memorial to the President setting
forth conditions as they affect the
farmers
The President told tho farmers that
the Administration was alive to the
present situation. He admitted that
the proposal of general conference
was new to him and promised to give
it careful thought The farmers were
told that the Administration had plans
under way which, it was believed.
would afford relief.
The farmers,s in their memorial,
dwelt at length on the part played by
the railroads in the economic depres-
sion. The PRESIDENT was reminded OF
his statement contained in his message
to Congress when he said that railroed
rates were too high The statement
was commended as interpreting the
sentiment of agriculture.
'The freight rates constitute
crushing burden on the farmer" said
Mr.. Davis. "We maintain that the
rise in freight rates is crushing the
life out of the industry, and if con-
tinued will retard the development Of
that cooperative spirit among the great
industries of the nation.
"The railroads cannot continue to
be wholesome without the assistance
of agriculture. When farms are aban-
doned or production restricted, railway
securities must suffer impairment in
value. Agrarian America cannot sur
vive unless it is in constant contact
with urban America.
"To settle this problem and to set
tie it right, agriculture needs the coop
Grafton of all basic industry. 1t is
ready to take its place by the side Of
steel, oil, finance, coal, lumber, la
Dor, the railway executives and other
great agencies. But we want you to
lead all, Mr.. President"

May Recover Funds
Christmas Club Depositors
Would Benefit

BOSTON, April 21.-Christmas Club
depositors in the Hanover Trust Com
pany, whose accounts aggregated
$l8S,201 when the institution was
closed, would receive the preferential
treatment of savings depositors under
petition filed in the Supreme. Court
to-day by Bank Commissioner Allen.
In asking permission to transfer
the Christmas Club account from the
commercial department to the savings
branch Mr.. Allen said it was contrib
uted by $3.50 depostors and within
the meaning of the law he regarded
it as savings account.
An item of 1921 900, comprising
twenty-seven notes which were nego-
tiated in the commercial department
on money taken from the savings
branch, also would be transferred by
the commission under his petition.
