THE LIGHT DEMAND
FROM WOOLEN MILLS
LOWERS WOOL PRICE

The following digest of the present
wool market will be of interest to
local sheep men. 1t was prepared by
Charles L. Luedtke, specialist in fore
ign marketing, and George T. Willing
myre, specialist in wool marketing, of
the bureau of agricultural economics.
To say that the present depression
in the wool market is due to the op-
GRAFTON of the law of supply and de-
mand will hardly satisfy the western
wool-grower who is today receiving 20
cents a pound, secured basis, less for
his wool than a year ago. An at
tempt has accordingly been made to
present in this report some of the
more important factors that enter into
a consideration of this problem.
The light demand from the textile
mills, whose lack of interest in turn
has been due to the slowness of the
yarn and cloth markets, is regarded
as the primary cause for the decline in
raw wool values. On the other hand,
the slackening up of orders from the
clothing manufacturers and knitting
mills has affected the demand for
yarn and cloth, while the retailer has
adopted a hand-to-mouth policy, say
ing that the consumer is not buying.
With world wool stocks at low
level and imports into the United
States "a per cent less during the ten
months ending with April, 1924, than
for the corresponding period of the
previous year. coupled with the de-
creased number of sheep in the prin-
cipal wool-producing countries OF the
world rather anomalous situation is
presented.

retail dealer, not to mention the con-
sumner, each has his own reasons for
the existing depression. Some of the
more important factors that have been
advanced as being responsible for the
present market situation are: The
high cost of labor and overhead in the
textile and clothing industries; over
production; under-consumptlon back
ward seasons; high rents; unemploy-
ment and part-time work; changes
in style, particularly in women's
wear; the tariff; competition with silk
and cotton goods; 2pants suits; the
automobile; distress merchandise;
hand -to-mouth buying by the retailer,
and the general uncertainty that US
ually prevails in a presidential year.
While it is difficult, if not impossible
to measure these elements in guam
titative terms, or in dollars and cents,
it is generally agreed that one or all
of these factors affect the wool and
clothing business somewhere between
the wool merchant and the retail
clothing dealer.
Not only is the price of raw wool
in this country 20 cents pound,
secured basis, less than a year ago,
but the price in Boston is approx
mately 1S cents a pound lower than
the London price. If we take into &C
count the full amount of the import
duty on wool. The ocean freight Will
increase this margin slightly more.
The following price comparison Will
serve to illustrate the difference. Tne
price in Boston right now of Ohio fine
strictly combing wool is around $1.27
1-2 a pound, secured basis. The price
of Australian warp 64s at the London
auctions on Tuesday, July 1, was 64
pence a pound, cleaned secured, or
$115 a pound which leaves a margin
of only IL 1-2 cents to cover the cost
of transportation and the import duty
into the United States, which alone
amounts to 81 cents pound.
Not only have imports declined as
result of the situation, above de-
scribed, but large quantities of foreign
wools imported into the United States
and held in bond have been reported
principally to England and Germany.
During the ten months beginning with
July 1, 1923, a total of 27,991, ,799
pounds of foreign wool was re-export-
ed from the United States, according
to the official returns compiled by
the department of commerce. For the
corresponding period of 1929, the
re-exports of foreign woods amounted
to only 2697,7S5 pounds The total
imports of wool into the United States
during the ten months ending April
80, 1924, amounted to 199,966,323
pounds, as compared with 43S,O68, ,O44
pounds imported during the CORES
ponding ten months of the previous
year. or a decrease of 81 per cent.
These figures are significant in the
face of the reduced number OF sheep
in the principal producing coun-
tries and the prospects for smaller
wool clip in the immediate future.

A group Of women from Prince

in Misses Vivian Simpson and Vir.
ginia Flanagan, refused admission
to Maryland University last fall.
who recently succeeded in getting
a court order compelling the univer.
sity to accept them as students.
The two girls told their story to
the women. They said few people
knew the real story behind the
action of the university and told
the women that until they took
an interest in them they felt they
had few friends.
Mrs. Mary e. Merely, who pre-.
sided at the meeting, declared the
women wanted to show in a sub.
stantial way their confidence in
the two girls who are quiet, well
behaved and unusually intelligent"
The women resolved themselves
into an organization that will con.
duct campaign to put an end to
the. unfavorable gossip current
since the recent hearing of Miss
Simpsons case in the Baltim ore
courts. Mrs. Merely said univer.
sity officials caused to be put into
the records certain testimony which

Advocates of 1890 Census as
Basis of Quota Claim
Safe Majority.

Selective and restrictive immigra-
ton was taken up in the House
today with leaders behind drive
to complete consideration of the
pending bill by tomorrow night. An
agreement may be reached not to
vote on passage of the bill before
next Tuesday because Of weekend
absentees.
Advocates of the bill, which pro-
vides for per cent quota on the
1890 census of aliens in the United
States, say they have votes to put
the legislation through the House
with comfortable majority.
The opposition to the 1890 census
as basis for the quota is vigorous
and determined. 1t is led by Con-
gressmen from the large cities,
where there are many foreign born
citizens, and from New England.
These claim the adoption by the
House immigration Committee of
the 1890 census was a deliberate
and intentional discrimination
against Italy and other Mediter-
ranean and Central European coun-
tries.

WestWood, Mass, Postmaster
ship Has Been Held by
EIIises Since 1924.

Whoever heard Of a government
job being held in one family for
100 years? Yet such a record has
been hung up recently at West
wood, Mass, where the postmaster
ship has been in the Ellis family
and it's forebears for a century.
Charles H. Ellis, the present post
master. shown on the right In the
accompanying photograph. has held
his present office for more than
forty-three years. He was appoint
ed in 1880 by President Hayes. AZ
that time, however. the postoffice
was West Dedham, the change in
name having been made sometime
afterward.
Prior to Mr.. Ellis appointment.
the postmastership was held By
Theodore Gay, the uncle of the
present postmaster. Mr.. Gay served
about thirty six years, having been
appointed in 1874 ty President
Tyler. Mr.. Gay, left In the accom-
panying photograph, received his
appointment on the death Of his
father -ln-law, Col. Abner Ellis.
Colonel Ellis, appointed In 1874
by President Monroe, was the
grandfather of the present post
master.
That goes back reasonably far
into the past. but a century means
little in Massachusetts, and Mr.. FL
lis has traced his family as resi-
