Seventy-seventh Association
TO Conduct Amateur Box
ing Tournament OH May
4, for the Unemployed
Receipts TO Be Used 10 Con-
tinue Welfare Service;
Members of Camp Wads-
worth School to Organize

For the benefit of the unemployed
and needy veterans Of this city the
77th Division Association will conduct
an amateur boxing tournament on
May d at Madison Square Garden. Lists
for entrance in eight different classes
arc open and applications will be re-
ccived from all amateurs in the city.
The performance will be under the
direction of the metropolitan division
of the Amateur Athletic Union.
At its clubhouse at 27 West Twenty
fifth Street the 77th Division Associa-
tion has been conducting welfare serv-
ice for all needy former service men
regardless of what units they served
in. The officials Of the organization
have carried on the work of clothing,
feeding, housing and finding work for
the unemployed veterans in an effort
to relieve conditions. In the employ
ment branch of the service the asso-
citation has co-operated with the City
Employment Bureau at 129 Worth
Street
Major S. Fullerton Weaver, chair
man of the employment committee Of
the association, was largely instru-
mental in the combining of the divi-
sion's bureau with that of the city.
The step was taken when the employ
ment situation was at it's peak in this
city Through the efforts of Major
Weaver and his committee large
number of former service men. have
been placed in positions. Even with
the good work accomplished by the as
sociation the situation still is serious
in some quarters of the city and the
veterans are reporting at the headquar-
ters in large numbers. In some cases
the veterans want only clothes and
food, with an occasional nights lodg-
ing, to better fit them for finding posi-
tions Of their own accord.
Realizing that the situation is far
from being cleared the association is
anxious to continue the work, but will
be unable to do so unless funds are
made available in the immediate fu-
ture. 1t is for this work, then, that
the boxing tournament has been ar
ranged, and it is expected that the
money raised will be sufficient to per-
nit the association to carry on it's
work for at least another year.
Benny Levine, Of the Amateur Ath-
letic Union Of the metropolitan divi-
sion, is in charge of the applicants.
Tickets to the tournament may be OBJ
tanned at the clubhouse. 1t is the plan
of the committee to have posters dis
played throughout the city attracting
attention to the coming event.

Danish-American Soldier
Is Buried in COpenhaoen

COPENHAGEN, April 8 (By The
Associated Press).-The body Of the
American soldier Of Danish parentage
which was recently exhumed in France
was reinterred in Copenhagen to-day
IN the presence Of officials of the
American Legation and Consulate,
Danish War Office officials, British
military officers and large numbers of
the people Of the city.
An American flag was draped about
the coffin, which was carried to ths
grave by American doughboys Of Dan
ish parentage dressed in khaki and
wearing their military medals. The
ia OF the coffin was covered with a
beautiful floral piece sent by the Amer
lean Club in Copenhagen.

OSCitdSSS.
Indications Of brighter prospect. are
found in new labor agreement signed
between tho union and mems clothing
manufacturers in Chicago, giving q 10
per cent reduction in wages and more
control over the workers by the en-
ployers. This, it is expected, will re-
suit in more economies in production
and a lowering of prices. In the New
York market it looks as If the wage
question will be settled by individual
agreements between employers and en-
ployees instead of collective bargaining.
The present pact between the cloak
and suit manufacturers and their en-
ployees ends on June l. and so far no
effort has been made at resuming COL
lective negotiations for q new agree
ment 1t is felt, however, that an at
tempt will be made to bring about a
lower wage scale and more efficient pro-
duction standards, to the end that
prices be reduced still further.
The effect of the coal strike is re-
fected in poor retail and jobbing trade
in the strike districts. Much of this
was anticipated, and business in these
regions has been particularly dull for
the last month or more.
Retail trade throughout the country
has been disappointing in most cases.
The merchants have had to contend
with bad weather conditions and the
fact that Easter comes late this year.
Good weather conditions of few days,
however, has brought out g strong con-
sumer deman4 for seasonable merchan-
disc, and the retailers are not greatly
discouraged over the outlook for the
next month or two

New STYLES i'm Women's Shoes

The women's shoe trade again mas
developed into style uncertainty. Re-
tallers are not sure what styles will be
demanded following Easter and through
the early summer months. All indica-
tions point to a heavy demand for
white footwear of various types. There
appears to be strong trend toward
solid white rather than the combina-
tions of white with colored feathers.
Bright colors are beginning to make
their way into the trade. For early
summer selling some retailers have or
dered patent leather sandals trimmed
with bright red, green, blue, tan, purple
and other colored feathers.

quested Colonel Taylor to make every
effort to get these men together to
establish permanent organization.
The date set for the meeting is tho
anniversary Of the graduation Of these
men at Camp Wadsworth. Several Of
the graduates from this and other
states have communicated with Colonel
Taylor, and it is expected that the
greater part of those surviving mem
bers will be present at the meeting
which will be held in the temporary
headquarters at 139 Centre Street,
Manhattan.

COttOns

Most divisions Of the cotton goods
trade suffered reaction last week.
Gray or unfinished goods were dull,
with some weakening in prices. Prices
on finished wash goods were irregular.
Some of the finest ginghams have been
revised downward. Following the re-
ductioas on wide sheetings, sheets and
pillow cases sufficient business has
been booked to take care of production
for the next two months in some mills.
Retailers report that over-the e-counter
trade in staple cotton goods has been
dull and that complaints against prices
are still current. Some classes of cot
ton goods are coming into short supply
as a result of the strike, it is said, but
so far it has not Influenced buyers to
any greater activity. Jobbing circles
report generally quiet business.

Officers viii Organize

Colonel William A. Taylor, who COM
manded the 106th Infantry during the
fighting in France and who was COM
mandant of the third officers training
school at Camp Wadsworth, has called
meeting of all members of the school
for April %. 1t is Colonel Taylor's
plan to have these men, about five hun
dred in number, organize n permanent
club. The third officers training school
was conducted in Spartanburg, S. c.,
and was composed for the greater part
of -commissi officers of the
27th Division. Some Of these men on
completing the course were assigned to
organize and train pioneer infantry
regiments.
Several of the graduates have re-

Apparel

Both the mems and women's apparel
markets are showing less life than
they should at this time Of the year.
Retailers are in the market constantly,
but are buying in extremely small
quantities, preferring to feel their way
along in the season rather than place
advance orders Of any size.
Mems clothing manufacturers will
send their statesmen on the road with
fall samples this week. In fact, some
lines already have been shown and
tentative prices announced. Slight re-
ductions from spring prices are noted
The retail apparel field is spotty

Finished diamond values arc rra,;u-

mand occasioned by the usual increased
business during the spring wedding
season. Enormous Russian diamond
stocks, imported after the revolution,
have been we'll absorbed in the market,
according to leading diamond mer-
chant, and the trade hereafter will
rely on the British syndicate, which is
holding the prices firm.
The money stringency is reflected in
the retail jewelry trade. Several jew

cash accounts. Mesh bags in new de-
signs arc selling we'll. The market in
gold chains is quiet. The popular
priced jcwelry trade will open up dur

tacturers, who report that orders al

F,irs

Some increase in the demand for
spring furs livened the market last
week, but otherwise conditions re-
manned unchanged. Manufacturing fur
riers are showing their fall models. but
as yet retailers have shown little in
terest in fall business. The raw fur
market remains comparatively dull
with demand active only on a fow OF
the specialties.
New-York tribune., 1922-04-10
Woolens

Some concessions in the prices of
worsteds for fall delivery were re-
ported last week. Some Of the mills,
anxious for business, evidently are
willing to run at little or no profit,
or just enough to cover their over
head. Spring woolens stiffened up
slightly under the influence of a
broader demand last week. but this is
not expected to hold for any length
Of time as the spring season is about
over.
Raw wool continued quiet most of
the week, with some price concessions
reported by dealers anxious to dispose
of stocks on hand.

Silks

Beyond minor fluctuations in the
raw silk market last week. silks
showed but little change in position
from that ruling the previous week. The
best estimates now place the active
machinery in the trade at not much
more than so per cent. No further
curtailments were reported last week.
Manufacturers still lack confidence
IN the raw silk market. Attempts to
peg the market in Japan have been
partly successful and the market there
toward the close of the week wa.
slightly stronger, according to reports
received here. Local quotations were
unchanged, although less underselling
by dealers was reported.

Leather

Calfskins were slightly frmer last

market remained dull Little change
was shown in the finished leather mar
ket. Patent leather continued to lead
IN demand, but sales were small and
spotty. Shoe manufacturers are COM
ing to the end of their spring run and
are awaiting midsummer and fall or
ders from the wholesalers and retailers
before entering the leather market
again.
Shoe business is running into the
