More than $1,000 600 was expended
for toys by the people of the United
States in 1921. The factory value of
toys manufactured in the United States,
says a statement by the National City
Bank of New York. more than trebled

games turned out by our factories in
1919. the latest census year, IL officially
stated at S4G,000.000 against Sill
COOS 600 in the preceding census year,
1914. Meantime, the imports of toys,
which fell from $4,000 900 in the year
before the war to a little more than
81, GEO. 00O in the year of its close, quickly
advanced to SG.000.00O in 1920 and
S10.0O0.000 in 1921. SO that the imports
Of toys in the fiscal year 1921 were ac-
tually greater in value than in any year
preceding the war.
While this unexpectedly prompt in
flow of toys from foreign countries has
somewhat reduced the outurn of the toy
factories of the United States in the
current year. the fact hat the capital
engaged in the industry advanced from
more than 100000 in 1911 to prob
ably $50, 100000 in 1919. in which year
jhe number of empl0res exceeded lO,OJO,

fully 100000 600 in 1921. despite the
tendency toward economies which has
characterized trade conditions during the
year the statement continues.
I'm one particular line of the toy in
duStry and trade. the holiday season
finds Il distinct shortage. namely. that
Of dolls. The number Of doh factories
in the United States greatly increased
following the opening Of the war. upon
the assumption that the absence Of the
supply formerly drawn from Germany
would greatly intensity the demands of
the homo market. but with the close of
the war and the prospect of big imports
from Germany and other countries of
Europe. as we'll as from Japan, which
had developed a considerable toy trade
during the war. many of tho doll fac
tories in the United States closed down
