N &c. DOLE.

Copyright 1927. By The Arglts-1
New York. N r.. Nov. 2S.-The
trend toward industrial alliance
and expansion in the United States
Is In full swing. That tendency OF
business was strikinEly exemplifed
by announcement made today that
President William M. Wood and
other executives or offices OF the
American Wooden company had as
ISOLATED themselves with the direc-
ton of the affairs of the Console
dated Textile company, one OF the
dominant factors In the cotton tex
tile industry.
The remarkable feature Of this
latest Joining Of forces is that all
parties interested insisted that 1t
contemplated no financial CONSOLE
dation but counted rather on in
creased efficiency Of management.
Both the wooden and the cotton
branches Of the great textile indus
try have been facing problems this
year which were and are practically
identical There is great world
shortage of production in both wool
and cotton. Prices for each have
gone to high levels and show no in
dications Of hating in their ad-
vance. Prices for finished wooden
and cotton cloths also have ad-
vanced but have not kept pace with
the spurts in price Of raw staples.
In past years the prices of cotton
goods sometimes followed the adj
vances or declines of the raw staple
to the extent of SO per cent but sell
dom were affected as much rs 66 2-3
per cent.
The full effect of price advances
in cotton and wooden goods has not
yet been felt by the public and Will
! not be fully apparent until jobbers
and retailers dispose of goods &C
quired at lower prices. For the time
being, the averaging OF costs has
prevented the sharp advance in
finished goods prices but there is
every prospect that full advances
will not be long delayed.
Manufacturers are firm in their
belief that~such advances will find
strenuous opposition from the con-
Stunning public although they do not
| expect the sharp drop in consump'
! ton which took place in 1921.
