Trade in the Southwest
Gets a Sudden Revival
BY JAMES II. RECORD.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

FORT WORTH, Tex, May 15.-Re-
, turn of crop-making weather and the
ending of the floods in this section,
coupled with returns from the first
shipments of early farm products,
have suddenly revived retail trade in
the southwest. Even the shoe and
nant for nearly two years, have felt
this movement. Money in this sec
tion actually has gone begging for
lack of borrowers. With the shear
ing season as yet uncompleted, S.000.-
600 pounds of wool have been sold to
spectators at the best prices since
1917, according to ]. E. Boog Scott,
chairman of the Texas Wool and Mo-
hair Growers Association.
The SPECTATORS are only buying
the finer grades" he said today.
These are bringing from 80 to 40
cents a pound" In some counties of
Texas half of the wool has been sold
already, buyers for Boston firms
making the largest purchases. Banks
in these counties are feeling the ef-
fectS of this new money which Is
coming in. Predictions are being
made of 50-cent wool. Mohair is now
selling at that price
Cotton planting. interrupted or de-
Iayed by the rains, has been resumed
throughout the north. east and west
Texas. Much of the south Texas
crop was destroyed entirely, and
must be replanted. Oil production
has begun to increase once more,
A with a daily increase of about 1000
barrels in north and west Texas.

Increased Bank CIearings
Reflect Frisco Activities
BY LYNN G. SIMPSON.
Special Disuatch to The Star

Especial Dispatch to The Star.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 15.-Bank
clearings with an increase of $12,-
100000 over figures recorded for cor
responding week of 1921, furnish a
f lir index of the relative conditions
this year and last. There has been
marked improvement in nearly all
lines of retail trade and a steadily
increasing activity in building con-
Struction. Real estate transactions
are attracting more attention from
capitalists.
Recent inspection of orchards shows
that while apricotS have suffered
serious damage and that the crop
will be only about half as large as
anticipated, other crops will be heavy.
Peaches were hit by the frosts in
some sections. but the fruit still re-,
manning on the trees is SO heavy in
many places as to require thinning.
Crops of almonds, peaches, pears,
cherries. plums and prunCs will be
good and some of them will be large.
Investment seems to have given
place to speculation to some extent
in the western stock exchanges, al
though public and private bonds of
high grade continue to be taken
quickly a a premium. There are in
dications of an actual labor shortage
in the state. One big power company
has announced an increase in the pay
of laborers to induce men TO go into
the mountains.

OF INJUNCTION

Washington, Sept. 6.-The in
junction obtained by the govern
ment against the striking railway
shopmen was declared today in
the senate by Senator Robinson,
democrat, Arkansas, to be viola
tive of both the constitution and
the Clayton antitrust act.
The Arkansas senator declared
that the injunction abridged
freedom of speech and Of the
press. and the right of people
peaceably to assemble" He argued
also that 1t violated the section of
the Clayton act which he said Inn
piled "that laborers may organize
and act in concert for the purpose
of mutual help without the risk
of prosecution under antitrust
laws
Senator Robinson charged that
the federal court exceeded its au-
thority in issuing the temporary
restraining order and declared
that the alleged advantages" to
be derived from the order "are
more than offset by the perma-
nent impairment of the reputation
Of the federal Judiciary for in
tegrity and impartiality which
must result from such an unwar-
ranted assumption of authority"
