HUGE SUMS SPENT
AS SCHOOLS OPEN
Clothing Bill j of Students
Amounts to Millions Dur
ing Academic Year.
BY J. C. RoYLE.

Special DlSphtCh 10 Inc 0tat.
NEW YORK, September 7.-Retail
trade today Is experiencing to the full
the influence of one Of the potent fac
tors in trade known to America. This
Is the annual Quitting of school and
college students for the academic year
Before the next fortnight is over, the
families of this country will have ex-
pended $2,250, 100000 at most con-
Sentative estimate, to prepare their on
spring to receive their education, most
Of which will be furnished them free
The United States has no prouder
boast than Is founded on its system OF
free and compulsory education, put
that education costs money entirely out
side the assessments on taxpayers VINO
support it.
There is scarcely family IN the
country with children of school or col
lege age which will spend less than $40
per child in Quitting them for the be-
ginning Of school.
Purchases Are Large.
President Hoover has pledged himself
to aid in the establishment of educa-
tional facilities for the children near
his fishing camp in Virginia. He
unquestionably will find adequate sup
port both from individuals and from the
Commonwealth of the. Old Dominion.
But it is extremely unlikely that the
poorest mountaineer in that section Will
send his children to that school with
out some expenditure outside his ordl-
nary budget. The Self-reSpect OF both
native and foreign born citizens de-
mands such a course. 80,
The purchases for this purpose will
range from minimum Of $40 to several
hundred or even several thousand dol
lars On the opening day OF the public
schools in New York and Chicago and
San Francisco and a score OF other
cities, the writer ventures to predict 1t
will be impossible to find a child i'm
properly clothed among the pupils.
Before the end Of this present school
wear, the children of America will have
scufied through 100000 pairs OF
shoes, and the manufacturers and re-
tailers have to be prepared to sell that
number. Makers and dealers in over
coats, stockings, caps, shirts, under
clothing and every ramification Of fem
mime attire from kindergarten dresses
to elaborate evening frocks will benefit.
The demand Of the younger generation
as expressed In the next two weeks may
change the whole style trend OF
dozen industries.
Publishers Benefit.
The educational demand pierces to
the heart of a score of industries. The
makers of school furniture feel 1t more
in the Summer season than at this late
date, but it is still factor with them.
The makers of writing papers, pens,
pencils, erasers, blank books. card In
dexes, typewriters, calculating machines
and chemicals are benefitting. The
rubber industry is laying out huge sums
in footuaor overshoes S1ickerS and
raincoats for the Fall and Winter con-
sumption of the school children.
Publishers are reaping their annual
harvest from the textbook field. Rail-
roads are finding their passenger
revenues augmented, while the sale Of
sporting goods has taken an unusual
lump.

HIGH TRADE LEVELS
SEEN BY EXPERTS
Farm Income Now Expected to
Equal or Pass Last Years
Revenues.
Special Dispatch to The star.

BOSTON, September This weeks
United Business Report, in summariz-
ing the opinions Of various business
and financial authorities, forecasts that
general business win continue at cur
rent high levels for the remainder OF
the year.
While drought has substantially re-
duced crop prospects in some districts
the recent increase in agricultural
prices assures total farm income at
least equal and probably slightly above
last year.
In the industrial field the steel, au-
tomobile and machine tool industries
stand out conspicuously on account of
their high rate of operation. Further
more, several Of the newer industries
such as radio, electrical refrigeration
and aviation have gained sufficient size
to become important factors in the
business situation.
The two major unfavorable factors
are high money rates and reduced
building activity. In neither of these
cases, however, has the influence on
the general business situation been suf-
ficient to Offset the many favorable
factors.

Back Yard Golf Ends
 When Ball Hits Baby

John Lauring, 43 Lawlor street, was trying to improve his golf game. Last evening he was in his back yard, practicing with his niblick. He would knock the ball up against a shed. It would return to him and he would knock it against the shed again.
 Three yards off, Mrs. Tony Parore, 1o Bartlett street, sat on her porch with her one and one-half months old baby in her arms, enjoying the evening air. One of the balls knocked by 1.auring went high, clearing the shed and struck Mrs. Perone's baby on the arm and breast, leaving marks.
 Detective McAvay, in Investigating the complaint, which was made by Tony Parone, brought the ball tc police headquarters. The child Is not seriously injured.
