ELKS BELIEVE
CONDITIONS NOW
JUSTIFY PARTY
Have Postponed Enter
tainment Because of
Hard Times

In the past, particularly during
the World War, FL Centre Lodge
of Elks has been one of the active
factors in furnishing amusement for
the public in various forms, but
during the past year or two of re-
adjustment, they have felt they
could best help by eurtailing the
activities which called on the pub
lie for large expenditure of
money.
The Elks now feel that the i'm
proved financial condition of the
valley justifies them in again af-
fording the people opportunity for
first class entertainment such as
they provided in former days. Sat
urday, April 81 has been selected
as the date for the first of what
will be an annual affair with the
Elks. 1t is for the public in gem
eral which of course includes every
member of the fraternity and the
best music that can be obtained
will prove irresistible, not only for
the confirmed dancer but for those
who enjoy food music for itself
alone.
Also Lunch
There will be Il cafeteria lunch
served during the evening and for
those who enjoy good game of
bridge or wish to rest, the Elks
club rooms, just across the street
from Masonic Hall, where the
dance is to be given, will be ar.
ranged for their benefit and enter
tainment.
THE committee in charge have
every detail arranged and do not
hesitate to state that the dance
will be the equal of the annual
Fremen 3 Ball and nothing can be
added to that as recommendation
to everyone present that they will
get more than their moneys worth
in fun and enjoyment. p

Large Volume of Fall
Business Placed
with Mills
COTTON Is HIGH
Retail Prices Clothing
Go Up to Meet
Situation
BY IRVINE 8ULLARD,
Vice President Merchants Bank;
Treasurer National Association
Of Cotton Manufacturers
Copyright 1928 by United Press)


Copyright 1928 by United Press)
BOSTON, April 1.-THE textile
manufacturing business of this coun.
try is operating at a high rate of
activity with prospects that produc.
ton schedules will be maintained at
about the present level for a few
months at least. The cotton mills
are running ut about ll3 per cent
and the wooden and wOrsted mills at
about 90 per cent Of single shift ca
pacity. Since the normal basis of
operations is considerably below
full capacity, these figures indicate
that the textile mills as whole are
running probably l2O per cent of
normal.
The WOODEN and wOrsted mills are
employed on fall goods, for which
buyers placed an unusually large
volume Of orders at the openings n
few weeks ago. These orders were
far in excess of the productive ca
pacity of the mills and manufacture
ers were forced to scale them down
uTdSttdIIN. NuoSt HidHui uttuTtiS
have all the forward business on
their books that they care to handle
under the present conditions.
Cotton Men All Busy
Most GOTTEN manufacturers like
wise, haves all the business that
they require to cover their produc
tion during the period for which
they are willing to sell. Northern
mills are running on an average
just about their regular single shift
schedules and southern mills are
operating about 25 per cent over
time. The mills recently have been
consuming cotton at higher rate
than ever before in the history of
the industry.
The most disturbing factors in
the situation are the high cost,
both of cotton and wool under the
threatening shortage of cotton.
Some kinds of wool are IS per cent
higher, others 100 per cent higher,
and still others l50 per cent higher
than they were year and half
ago. Cotton is nearly three times
as high as at the low point of the
recent depression. .-.
The recent advances in wages of
l2% per cent, bringing the present
wages Of cotton mill workers to 1873
. per cent above pre-war, and of
woolen workers to l59 per cent
above pre-war, adds further to the
high cost of manufacturing and ne
cessitates high prices for fabrics.
Buyers Are Cautious
Under such conditions, buyers of
textile goods are cautious in regard
to entering into further commit
ments with the mills. They want
to know more than they do, at
present as to how the consumer will
react when retail prices of clothes
and clothing are put on parity
with present mill costs and primary
market selling prices. Uncertainty
as to the size of the new cotton
crop is another unsettling factor in
the cotton trade.
In other words, while buyers are
generally optimistic and manufac,
turers are well employed, they both
realize the difficulties and dangers
Of the present situation and are
well employed, they both realize the
difficulties and dangers Of the pres
ent situation and are avoiding the
long commitments which ended so
disastrously in 1920. This perhaps
is one Of the most re-assuring
phases of the present situation.

FOR
 THE DIV VISION
 OF TERRITORY
First City Starts Movement to Divide Alaska Along Lines
 Suggested by Harding.

Ketchikan has fathered a move ment looking toward the division of the Territory of Alaska. The Commercial Club at that place last week passed resa}ution asking the Ketchikan City Council to call a convention of those in all sections of Alaska indicated by President Harding as being nearly ready for Statehood.
 The Ketehikan Chronicles &C., count of the action of the Commer- oial Club says:
 According to the suggestions to be laid before the Council, that body vii be asked to set date for the convention, and then to com municate with the municipalities in that section of the Territory in terested with a view to having them send delegates. The invita- ton will extend to all that part of Alaska which President Harding, in his Seattle speech, intimated might in the not distant future become a State. That Is, all of the Panhandle |of Alaska and possibly small DOT tion of the Southern part of the mainland of the Territory, if the residents of that section so desired. This would go so far as to take in the Copper River basin.
 Tt is pointed out that forstry officials and others have recom- mended this division, that the peo- pie of Southeastern Alaska, are almost unit in it's favor, and that the contemplated convention could give the movement momentum which would have effect at the na- tional capital.
