PRACTICALLY BEEN WON

NEW YORK The Amalgamated
Clothing Workers of America. after a
Ave months lockout, in the course of
which IL has had TO fight the most adj
roit and INSCRIPTIONS tactics at the
command of sweatshop advocates. has
practically won its fight with the Clio
hing Manufacturers Association of
New York, The victory of the clothing
workers comes primarily as a result of
he nnwayering solidarity of the work
ers and their officials but Ii was has
ened by dissension in the ranks of the
employers, who have been falling away
)ne by one from the rule or win" pol
cy of their leaders.
The final act in the disorganization
+ the employers body came with the
resignation of VIM A. Bandler It's
president. Bandler took with him in
his secession movement about 25 OF the
lesser local clothing manufacturers
and announced that a new and sepa
rate employers organization will be
formed of the bitter enders"
being a small minority who cannot
swallow their pride and resume nego
tiations with the Amalgamated.

UNSIGNED LETTERS

Once more The Review rises to re-
mark on the anonymous letter. and
to inform sundry readers why their
communications have found their way
into the waste basket instead OF into
the columns of this newspaper. The
Review has no objections to printing
the views of citizens on any subject.
almost--from the fall Of man to the
merits of jazz music; but such views
must be duly sponsored and subscribed
to by the one who nromulgates them.
The editor has to stand the conse-
quences OF his own statements and ex.
poets all others to be likewise respon-
sible for theirs Besides this, the opin-
ion of man who comes out squareiy
and identifies himself with his utter

that of one who is either ashamed or
afraid to have his views credited to
himself. And finally. the editor Is

CHICAGO. April 20-The district
composed OF the North Atlantic States
has the most adequate supply of hos
pitfalls, and the district most lacking in
hospital supply is that represented by
the South central group of states, ac-
cording to statistics made public to-day

and Hospitals of the American Medical
Association.
There are 4,0l3 general. private and
special hospitals with total of BILL
beds for patients with acute and sub
acute diseases in the United States,
the report said 1t is estimated that
an average Of 2o60 024 beds are occupied
each day.
Nevada has the largest supply of
hospital beds, there being one for every
139 persons, while Mississippi has the
lowest supply. with only one bed for
every 1,054 persons.
Connecticut and New Hampshire are
the only states in which every county

Rather Weak Investments

Questton-WIll you please give me such
Information as you have with reference to
Great Northern preferred and Seaboard
Air Line adjustment 6s? How long has
each been paying div!dendsl What are
the chances OF their continuing TO pay
and what do you think of each for an In
vestment for q business man e. b. B.
Answer-The Great Northern pre-
ferred is preferred in name only. There
is no longer any common. The railroad
situation is SO uncertain that we con-
slider it somewhat speculative, notwith-
standing the fact that it has paid divi-
dends since 1892 and the annual rate
since 1898 has been 7 per cent. The
Seaboard adjustment 5s are bond, not
stock, and have paid interest since
1910 The road is weak one and had
it not been for the government rentals
the company could not presumably have
continued interest payments. We think
YOU can find better investments.

Rabbi Sadowsky and Son
Freed in Dry Law Case
L. 5. Commissioner at Roches-
ter Finds Wine Was Sold.
Supposedly for Sacrament

ROCHESTER. n. Y. April 20.-At
the conclusion of an extended hearing
here this afternoon. United States
Commissioner H6n c. Smith dis
missed the charge of violating the
prohibition act against Solomon Sa-
dowsky. chief Orthodox Jewish rabbi
of Rochester, and his son, and dis
charged both prisoners.
1t was contended by attorneys for
the rabbi that the wine sold by his son
to prohibition enforcement agents was
sold against his explicit directions that
the wine should be sold to none bu@
members OF recognized congregations,
and that the sale was made by the son
under the belief that the prohibition
agent who was admitted to be Jewish,
was entitled to the wine for sacra-
mental purposes.
Attorneys for the Sadowskys con
tended that the rules for the sale Of
wine to Jews for sacramento purposes
were vague and that the enforcement
agent himself did not know what these
were.
Announcement was made here to-day
that Federal Judge Hazel in Buffalo
had issued an order requiring the gov
ernment TO show cause in United States
District Court in Buffalo tomorrow
morning why the wine seized from
Rabbi Sadowsky should not be re
les>ed. Its release has been sought by
the Orthodox Jewish congregations OF
the city as necessary in the celebration
Of the Feast of the Passover, which
begins on Friday evening.

Selling at Smaller Margin
of Profit Despite Heavy
Overhead Expenses, View
of Burkhardt on Prices

RICHMOND, Va. April 20~-Denial
of the Federal Trade Commissions
charge that retailers were reluctant to
take losses on merchandise purchased
at peak prices was made here o-day by
Andreas +. Burkhardt, PRECEDENT of the
National Association of Retail Cloth
iers. Speaking for the retailers of
mems clothing, furnishings and hats
he directed a statement to The New
York Tribune.
Retailers began liquidating their
stocks in May, 1920" said MIR. Burk-
hardt, who is here attending the con-
ventlon OF the Virginia Retail Clothiers
and Furnishers' Association, "and at
the beginning of the fall season OF
1920 sold clothing at actual cost .nd
less. Added to this was their heavy
overhead selling expense; heavy losses
We're made figuring actual selling
against selling expense and not in the
marking down on inventory cost
Where this was done it caused
greater loss, which in many instances
caused an impairment of inve sted capi-
tai. The income tax returns of retail
ers for 1920 will prove this statement.
This spring clothing was purchased
at wholesale at 35 per cent less than
PSon pAiSCS VI dutuHiIls lSLU, hSLalIeTS
are offering this merchandise to the
public at closer margin of profit, de-
spite the terrific overhead of selling,
which cannot be lowered because many
Items such as rents, advertising,
freight, passenger rates. wages, etc,
have been fixed arbitrarily. This
means that retailers are facing an
other season of net loss instead of net
profit
How long can retail business con-
tinue to exist under prevailing con-
ditons? What we need is less legisla-
tion Of business. The work of the Fed
eral Trade Commission or any other
department of the government should
be done constructively rather than de-
structively to all business in general"
Sentiment amorg the retail clothiers
gathered here is that of conservative
optimism. w. Fleet Kirk, president of
the state organization, said that the
clothiers are facing better conditions
than they had expected few months
ago and that they can now see light
ahead.
