play. Two of the women fail to make q success of marriage--it is the third woman, that comes not empty handed, but bearing spiritual gifts, who real izes to the full what marriage may mean.
 After winning a decided triumph with ''The Last of the Mohicans," which showed the lurking dangers of the early pioneers of this country, MT Tourneur now shows us that all though the dangers of today are vast ly different from those of some years ago, they are just as tragic, and far more reaching in their scope. The story finds it's answer to the burn ing question in terms of human ex- perience.
 There is no single heroine appear ing in every scene to give purpose to company of puppets. It is cross section from life--a story of three women who constitute a molecule of social New York, of three separate households, of how each works out her own destiny, and how each reacts on the others.
 In more than one way the story is remarkable. It reflects in an original and intensive fashion the hidden struggles of great city. the inter- play of lives and the everyday prob lems that men and women face and cringe to mention, and it sets forth in a telling manner the glories ot Gods creation against the sordid background of mans handicraft.
 The story will be enacted by an all star cast of players, including Doris May, Mildred Manning, Kathleen Kirkman. Hobart Bosworth, Charles Meredith, Betty Schade, Wallace Me Donald. Margaret McWade, Michel Dark and little Frankie Lee

Urges Aid to Producer
Crissinger Says Farmers Must
Be Assured of Credit

NEW ORLEANS, April 19.-"We must
extend. through our financial instru-
mentalities, every encouragement to the
producer" D. r. Crissinger, Comptrol-
ler Of the Currency. and tonight in an
address before the Louisiana Bankers
Association.
"The farmer must be assured right
now that in his effort to buy fertilizers,
seed, implements and labor for the next
crop he will be given the broadest
credit that can possibly be extended
through the banks, and that the Fed
eral government and Its banking struc-
ture will stand squarely back Of indi-
viduai banks that wisely extend necss-
sary credits for these purposes. Credit
as basis Of production there must
be; credit as an incentive and means
to mere unproductive speculation there
must not be.
~ can say to you bankers, and to
the great agricultural community be-
hind you, that this is and will be the
policy Of those responsible fog the
supervision Of national banks"

Cotton Goods Merchants Back
Embargo ON Exports to Cuba


Jobbers and retailers have pur
sued the handto-mo mouth policy in
purchasing merchandise so far that
the future of the cotton goods in
dustry Is doubtful. according to Will
liam M. Austin, commission mer-
chant.
"Hand-to-mouth buying is wise,
no doubt" he said yesterday, "but
many of them now have their hands
and their mouths too far apart. I
see evidences Of business lost to
jobbers and retailers because they
have not sufficient goods in stock.
IT they desire new styles and pat
terms in goods they will have to
shoulder just little bit of the
risk involved by ordering few
things to give the manufacturers
some inkling Of what kind of mer-
chandise will be desired. Goods can
not be produced overnight. Under
present conditions 1t will take close
to six months to get run Of 20, 900
yards Of a new style through the
mills. At present there is no incen-
tive for manufacturers to go ahead
and bring out new styles"

Question: shall receive $4,000 within

cent? Is 1t true that bonds are safe
and secure Investment 7-F A. B.
Answer--It depends entirely on the
bond as to whether ir is "safe and
secure Investment" A bond as the
word is ordinarily used in describing
investments, represents a promise to
pay to the owner of the bond the prn-
day. 1t represents money lent to a
corporation, which must be paid back
to the lender. Stock represents part
nership interest in the business and it's
equity comes after it's debts. For a
man who has had so little experience
in investments and apparently has
given the subject SO little study, we
think that you demand too high yield.
An investor puts two things into an
investment-his money and his knowl-
edge of investments. When you lack
the knowledge and experience you must,
if you want safety, forego something

Sales Tax Urged ON
Retail Shoe Dealers
Members Generally Favored the
Adoption of This Form
of Tax

New York shoe retailers yesterday
were urged to support the movement
for q gross sales or turnover tax by
Judge L. R. Wiley, former Attorney
General Of the Philippines. Judge Will
fey, as a member of the Tax League
Of America, was the principal speaker
at the regular monthly meeting of the
Retail Shoe Dealers Association of
Greater New York in the Bush Term
inal Sales Building.
He asserted that the country is in
an economic crisis; that the Legislators
are faced with the problem of raising
A,OOO,OOO,00O of revenue without de-
stroying prosperity, and that the sales
tax is the only method of accomplish
ing this result The retailers discussed
the sales tax in open forum following
the meeting and generally favored the
adoption of the sales tax.
Ray Morse, Brooklyn shoe manufac-
turer, made a plea for greater CO.
operation between retailers and manu-
facturers in the direction of placing
orders that will enable the manufac-
turers to maintain steady production
the year round.
"The expenses Of idle equipment and
Idle workmen," he said, "are included
in the price of shoes. With even pro-
duction, instead of the peaks and val
leys we have at present, the manufac-
turers could give better values.
Retailers are now buying too near
their actual wants, judging by the pres
sure for deliveries brought upon the
Brooklyn factories in the last two
months.
"The Brooklyn shoe manufacturers
now feel that the worst is over, and
they are running their plants near
capacity, but business has not reached
a point where an even production is
assured"
S. A. McOmber, sales manager for
Utz & Dunn, shoe manufacturers of
Rochester, supported Mr.. Morse in his
arguments and brought out some inter
ssting examples of the value of CO.
operation and organization among bust
ness men. He made a strong plea for
expanding the membership Of the local
retail organization.

To Protest Tariff Plan
Object to Proposed American
Valuation for Duties

A committee headed by Thomas
Doherty of George Borgfeldt & Co..
representing the recently organized
NATIONAL Council of American I'M
porters, will appear before the Sen
ate Finance Committee within the next
few days to register a protest against
the American valuation plan proposed
to offset deprecated exchange of
European nations. The proposal to
value imports at the American selling
price for similar goods at their port
of entry is a part of the emergency
tariff act
The importers feel that the tentative
estimation of limit of sc 2-3 per cent
in the depreciation of foreign ex-
change will prove ruinous to the i'm
port trade, and will practically stop
all importing from the central Eur
opean nations.

Steady Increase in
Demand for Leather

Although below normal, trading in
leather is gradually assuming larger
dimensions, according to views ex-
pressed by leather men. In comment
ing on the situation existing in the
trade, Maxwell Barnet, of Sol. Barnet
& Son, said that, although there has
been slight recession in the demand
for fancy shoe feathers recently, there
is greater talk and some little demand
for the more staple line Of feathers,
such as black and colored calf and
black kid.
"The broadening in the demand for
this line" Mr. Barnet believed, "will be
of great help to tanners of kid, as
many of them are holding quantities of
black leather. The time is rapidly ap-
preaching when the leather trade will
once more find itself doing a normal
business"

Association Members Agree
to Help Jobbers Get Rid
of Stocks to Meet Mills; ;
Will Withhold Shipments

The Association Of Cotton Textile
uarchauts Of New York, to which most
- the large dry goods commission
houses IN this market belong, yesterday
Sscided to support the movement for
an embargo on the shipment of cotton
Goods into Cuba, with certain limita-
t;ons. as measure Of self-protection
to themselves. The Cuban situation
hss taken new turn in the last few
weeks.
;mporters and jobbers are stocked with
.ukicient cotton goods, sufficient to
last another year, according to con-
servative estimates. They still owe the
commission merchants in this country
for q large portion Of these goods, but
assert that they are unable to pay for
them since their customers, the Cuban
retailers. are not paying their bills or
buying additional goods.
At the same time the small Cuban
retailers have been seeking goods in
this country for cash, and in many
cases have succeeded in getting them.
The shipment of additional goods to
Cuba. the association feels, only aggra-
Yates the situation, since it only pro-
longs the impasse in which the Cuban
johbing trade has been placed. What
is desired here is freer movement of
goods from Cuban jobbing hands.
Donald B. Stewart, of Ridley, Watts &
Co. and Edmund S. Twining jr., of
Converse & Co. were named as com
mittee to take steps to further the
movement for Cuban embargo.
The association also adopted a reso-
luton recommending that / per cent
tax be levied on gross sales of any
comm odities or merchandise, as sub
stitute for the excess profits tax. The
resolution also urged the reduction Of
the so-called equivalent surtaxes rest
ing upon income derived from indus
trial activity.

Answer-The Virginia Power first

los, were recently quoted about 10.
Gross earnings in 1920, were 81 ,209, 900,
an increase over the previous year Of
Is per cent. Net in 1920 was $456, 900,
which was only about $4,000 more
than enough to pay interest charges.
Net In January and February, however,
has shown a large increase and the
company has just been granted a 20
per cent increase in rates. It's power
is generated by steam and the increased
cost Of coal hit tho company. Whether
to buy the bond or not depends a
good deal on your investment position.
Earnings were not satisfactory In 1920,
but the company expects to better its
