Straw Hat Makers, Running
To Capacity, Feel No Depression
Canada Manufacturers
NO,u More HopefuL

TORONTO, April 5.-Canadian
manufacturers are now more hope
ful regarding the immediate future
than they have been for some
months, says the Canadian Bank of
commerce in its April commercial
letter. AS yet. however, the bank
adds. the actual volume does not
snow an appreciablc increase:
certainly the railways are not be-
ing offered any greater volume Of
business"
In the textile industry" says
the bank. there is continued BUOY
ancy, and there does not appear to
be any danger of the mills having
to reduce either staff or working
hours. Paper mills are operating
at approximately 90 per cent Of
capacity, owing to the steady de-
mand from the United States. The
stability Of prices does not appear
to be endangered by the steady in
crease in the capacity of these
mills, as the larger output is being
absorbed by the demand from
abroad"

May Present Island Oil
Adjustment Plan Saturda,

An agreement was reached yester-
a gay at a hearing before Judge John
T.. Knox that the receivers of the
Island Oil and Transport Company
should make no more commitments
other than for routine needs until
Saturday. In the meanwhile an effort
Will be made to prepare definite ad0
Justment plan for presentation to the
court on that day.
1udee knoX remarked during the
proceedings that unless the trustee Of
the mortgage made to secure the note
issues came into court and submitted
TO ITS jurisdiction there seemed little
else to do but to have a bill filed to
foreclose. The trustee the New York
trust Company. has not yet become a
party to the litigation. The court yes
terday signed an order presented bv
L'ndley NJ. Garrison, counsel for the
trustee, asking permission to inter
vene for the purpose of enforcing the
rights of the trustee to foreclose or
take such action az might be deemed
necessary to protect the mortgagee.

Approve Campaign fortnight
Hat in Right Place at
Annual Meeting: Phelps
Is Reelected President

Depression has dealt lightly with the
mAns straw hat industry, according to
reports made yesterday at the annual
meeting of the National Association of
Straw Hat Manufacturers of America
st the Hotel Astor. Factories running
SO capacity was the general report from
members of the association, which rep
p.sents fully go per cent of the straw
hat producing capacity of the country.
in addition to good forward orders
booked before the first of this year. re-
peat orders have been coming ir from
the South, where the straw hat season
has been IN full sway for some weeks.
One of the surprising facts of the busi-
ness is that the recorders are heavier
on th higher priced hats, those rang
ing in retail prices from IS to $40, it
WAS said
The manufacturers discussed and ap~
proved plans for widespread cam
paign designed to awaken men to a
keener appreciation of style value in
straw hats and to the use of the proper
hat for each occasion. The campaign
to be carried on through newspaper
and booklet advertising advocates the
wearing of leghorn or other soft straws
for sports use. the fancy tan braid or
coarse sennet for ordinary wear and
the fine China split or sennet for wear
with evening or dinner dress.
Thus, according TO the manufac-
turers, they hope to convey the mes
sage TO the public that every man
should have at least three straw hats
IN his wardrobe.
Another topic discussed was the elm
tnation of the cut price styles early in
the season and the inauguration OF
second season in June, when the bloom
OF the hat purchased early in the
spring has vanished.
Local ordinances and the licensing of
fy-by night merchants have almost done
away with the "eighthour" straw hat
vendors Of other days, who opened tenn
porary stores and sold cheap merchan-
disc in competition with established hat
retailers, it was said.
Definite style tendencies are not han
died by the association, but it was
brought out that the summer of 1922
will see wider variety of style in
straw hats than ever before
Fred G. Phelps, Of the Bonar-Phelps
Company, New York, was reelected
president of the association. Other
officers elected were Julius Levy. of
III. S. Levy & Sons, Inc, first vice-presi-
dent; Fletcher H. Montgomery, presi-
dent of the Knox Hat Company, second
Vice president; Z. H. Fitzmaurice, Of
George B. Burnett & Sons, New York,
treasurer, and Robert J. Patterson, New
York, secretary.
