NEW YORK CITY, January 13.-
Retail hardware stocks are cleaner
than following any Christmas buying
period since 1929. Practically the
only supplies in the stores or in
wholesalers ware rooms, Hardware
Age will say tomorrow in its market
summary, are freshly bought mer-
chandise definitely planned for VIM
ter or Spring selling. AS for the
manufacturers. they have almost never
been so bare of any vestige Of reserve
supplies. They are operating at full
time-or overtime where they can
to catch up with the accumulations
of their incoming orders.
Many important industries are
hampered by strikes in their own
plants or in those Of their material
suppliers, and such situations are
adding to the scarcity of this and
that" which all buyers are expert
encing.
Price increases on manufactured
goods are coming through with un-
diminished speed, but on these there
is yet no sign of 'pyramiding" or of
overreaching the increases in material
and labor costs. In many Of the COM
modify or material lines. however,
the rises have been so spectacular
that their permanency Is being de-
bated.
There have been enough late buy
ers or enough speculative covering TO
maintain an active market for all
major commodities thus far. Buy
ing, however, cannot keep up indefi-
nitely in the face of such rapid in
creases as have been made in lead,
copper. hides. rubber and other COM
modities. For some OF these war
rumors abroad have been largely re-
sponsible. and in their higher reaches.
and many believe that these recent
prices are not safe to depend upon.
even though they may be carried
still higher before reaction.
