Apparel
Leather

Leather demand is fair. There has
oeen within the past week certain
sellers. Raw material markets are ba-
ing closely watched by tanners who are
interested in overcoming discrepancies
between present hide and leather costs
Shoe manufacturers generally are plac-
ing. orders for only thirty or sixty days
delivery. Sole leather Of all descrip-
tlons is in good demand. Patent
feathers are somewhat less active.
Glazed kids, in black and Havana
brown shades, are moving freely at
iilrmi prices. There was some activity
IN boarded finishes of upper leather,
but these descriptions are not as active
as last year.
New-York tribune., 1922-11-06
Silks

Continued improvement was reported
in the silk trade last week. Demand is
stronger for printed silks and other
novelties than for the old line staples,
but the latter are growing more active,
although but slowly. The ribbon trade
also has moved into better position
under the continuation of the good de-
mand for ribbons CT almost all descrip-
tions.
Raw silk is still stumbling block in
the trade. A continuation of the high
prices of raw silk is reacting unfavor-
ably on the hosiery trade, it is said, and
manufacturers of silk goods are once
more complaining of the difficulty of
stabilizing their prices for finished
goods with raw silk showing little or
no stability. Raw silk prices were
strong at the beginning OF the week,
but slightly softer later on. In the
main, though, dealers here did not fol-
low the fluctuations in the Yokohama
market, but kept their quotations fairly
firm. Raw silk buying was on re-
duced scale. Statistics compiled by the
Silk Association Of America showed
record imports and deliveries to Ameri-
can mills of raw silk during the month
Of October.

spring prices at levels from 10 to 20
per cent in advance Of those of a year
ago. The advance was considered con-
servativs by the trade in general. A
further advance in carpets was made
by the leading producer last week. an
increase OF 10 per cent in the prices
established when spring goods were
opened q little less than month ago.
Furs
The fall fur trade is turning out in a
disappointing manner to many in the
trade. Repeat and new orders for
manufactured goods are not coming
INTO the market in as large volume as
the manufacturers would like to sec.
and accordingly they have cut down
thelr purchases of raw furs. A few Of
the latter are active. but they are most
" IN the speciality class. Muskrat, the
basis for Hudson seal, the great staple
OF the trade, is considered unsatisfac-
tory at present, with supplies piling up
in some centers.
Reports from the retail trade con-
tinue little better than fair.
Apparel
With preparations for the spring sea-
son IN women's apparel there continues
a fairly strong demand for winter
goods in the wholesale markets. Retail
ers purchased sparingly at the begin
ming Of the season and are now comb
ing the market for styles that have
met with public approval. In both the
mems and women's market there ia a
strong trend toward better class of
merchandise than was in demand o
year ago.
Mems clothing for spring has been
widely. shown by manufacturers, both
IN their show rooms and on the road.
Early buying is reported to be much
better than it was a year ago, with
tendency.

Cottons

Cotton goods were less active last
week than in the previous two weeks.
although prices remained firm and
made actual gains in some cases.
Staple cotton goods continue in good
demand, with many mills sold up to
February and unwilling to take on con-
tracts for delivery beyond that date.
More activity is shown in converted
fabrics, principally wash goods for con-
sumer use next spring and summer
Deniins, chambrays and other heavy
goods used principally in work cloth
ing are we'll sold ahead and price ad-
vances have been put into effect.
Cotton goods jobbers in many eases
have not moved up their price lists to
conform with mill prices due to the
hesitant attitude Of retailers when
price advances are made.

bonus is the business of congress 10
ascertain, and it is not for the Ameri-
can Legion to say how it shall be ac-
complished, Hanford MacNider, ma
tional commander o fthe Legion, said
today
The Legion wants early passage of
the pending adjusted compensation
legislation, Commander MacNider
pointed out. but how the money is
to be raised is a subject the Legion
has kept far away FROM He de-
clined to hazard an opinion as to the
feasibility of paying the bonus thru
marketing Of British bonds which is
said to be favored by the administra-
ton.
The Legion chief has no idea" he
said. as to the number of ~veterans
who will require a cash payment.
This, however. is to be determined by
a census of all veterans to be under
taken shortly by the Legion, following
approval of the plan by an important
conference of Legion officials and ad-
ministratiOn reI reSentatiVes in Indian
apolis January 20 and 81.
Commander MacNider declared the
other forms of compensation in the
f1ve-fold plan now pending are better
than the cash form of payment, 'in
the long investigation" but the num-
Der of ''men on their uppers' will
largely determine the cash demands.

has a life size boom for the Democrat
nomination if he will merely consent
to take, it.
Farmers here this week have a deer
rooted feeling-and they talk the gos-
sip of the folks out in the rural dis
tricts-that the man who succeeds to
the goVernorship must be quite safely
removed from responsibility for tax
increases. President Jardine has
never been mixed up with political
muddles and faetiona1 rows. He has
merely been a very efficient and de-
cidedly popular school head He
ranks high in the rural sections and
has a big following in the paved street
district He has a personal acquaint-
ance with thousands of farmers and
if something really happened to upset
the dope sheet and overthrow Repub
lican control next November-weI, a
bunch of farmers here this week be-
lieve President Jardine is about the
sort of man for the task.
Knows Need of Farmers
Il do not believe Kansas could find
a better man for governor" said Andy
Shearer of Marshall county, veteran
Democrat leader and one of the men
who swayed the farmer meeting with
his native ordtory this week. "Presi-
dent Jardine is qualified in every way
to make one of the best governors
Kansas ever had. Furthermore he
kuOMS the uceOS VI the farmers ana
he knows better than most men how
to get results"
Among the men pFominent in the
high councils of the Democrat party
in the state, President Jardine is also
popular. r. W. Blair. of Topeka, for
many years a leader in the party, be-
lieves the Jardine boom is a winner
if he will run.
4 have heard a number of farmers
talk and they are for Doctor Jardine
if he will get in said Blair. 81 have
also talked with Republicans-men in
as tho about so per cent of the Re
pubiicans in Kansas were planning to
vote the Democrat ticket next fall.
They are fed up on tax burdens.
believe there is a big demand for a
strong farmer candidate and I don't
know a man in the state who would
so nearly answer the popular demand
as Doctor Jardine."
California Wants Him.
This afternoon there was strong talk
of a move to draft President Jardine
for the nomination Recently Cali
fornia educational institutions sought
to induce the agricultural college head
to accept big offer in that state. He
has decided to remain in Kansas.
Whether he will really consider pro-
posals to push him in the race is seri-
ously doubted. None the less he has
a first class. high powered boomlet at
his disposal. And indications today
were that it would require his en-
pathtic mo" to keep down plans for

FEARS MORE R. R. REDUCTIONS
Earnings and Traffic Must Increase
Expense Cuts Inadcquate-Byram

Washington, Jan. 13.-Uniyersal de-
mand for further freight rate reduc-
tions are viewed by railroads with ap
prehension, President H. E. Byram of
the c., NJ. & st. P. railroad, testified
today at the interstate commerce COM
mission rate investigation.
All efforts to reduce expenses and
increase efficiency recently have been
inadequate to maintain railroad earn
ings, he declared, and the railroad
plants cannot be maintained intact I'M
less earnings and traffic alike increase.
The only suggestion, Mr.. Byram said,
to increase the earnings of the rail-
roads lay in further wage reductions.
Federal control of wages, which he
said was now in effect thru the rail-
road labor board, had prevented ad-
justment of the wages to suit economic
conditions
