The Wilson Era: Years Of
Peace, l91O-19l7," by Josephus
Daniels university of North
Carolina Press: $4,000 is the OPP
ening volume of the memoirs of
a staunch friend of President
Wilson, and as his Secretary OF
Navy, an important participant
in those momentouS years.
For the many who, after BIT
ter presidential campaign, are
sourcd on politics and polite
ians, Mr.. Daniels book IS refresh
ing reading and goes far TO re-
store faith. 1t depicts, without
rancor, the hard row of bitter
ness and ridicule which men in
hi IN places must hoe. But 1t is
neither defense per sc OF a
profession, nor is 1t, strictly
speaking, altogether an autoblog-
raphy. Mr.. Daniels has you pull
up comfortable chair, light that
cigarette you've put away for a
special occasion, and listen to
recoficctions of the Wilson Adj
ministration. His story is not a
new one, but his Interpretation
of the men and events of the era
he writes Of is lively, mellow,
and -consistentlyinte
Woodrow Wilson was, and is,
his hero. He tells of the day he
met wilson, how he entered
politics and gained the support
of Bryan, and was nominated
and elected. He gives a behind
tile-scenes portrait of the many
as a martyr; and now and then
he gets around to Josephus Dan
iolS, whose brother warned him
TO turn down Cabinet job
should Wilson offer it TO him.
But nc decided to take it with
great pleasure, knowing that l
am uOlnS WTOflS.
Perhaps minor, but interest
ing point brought out by MIR.
Daniels is the truth behind his
ban on intoxicants for men in
the Navy. Alcohol had been
tabu before--for enlisted men
and petty officers. Officers could
have their cocktails, and Daniels
act was the correction of what he
saw TO be non-democratic evil.
This first book of the Wilson
wears Is fine one. and IFS read
erS will look forward TO the sec
ond volume, which Will deal
with 1917 and the following
tragic years.

weeks continued through last
week, with volume substantially
above last year at this time and
some gain indicated over the pre-
v!ous week, according TO Dun &

The majority of department
stores had large increases over
1914, and in the case of one i'm
portant unit gain of as per cent
was registered.
AS In previous weeks of late,
the outstanding feature was the
heavy buying of yard goods and
women's apparel. Millinery, hand
Ddgs and gloves also sold we'll and
accessories IN general attracted
more interest.
Most speciality shops had an eX-
ceptionally good week with de-
mand for higher priced dresses
and coats even greater than dur

Allen Industries
Adds z New Plants
BY WARD SCHULTZ


Two new plants of Allen Indus
tries, located at Perth Amboy,
~. j., and Port Huron, Mich.
add about 10000 square feet to
the company's manufacturing
space, according to President
Sidney j. Allen.
The company's other plants
are located here, in Plymuoth,
and at Linden, N. j.
The two new units will require
an initial expenditure of about
100000 and upwards of $780,
600 will eventually be spent in
a d dition for machinery and
equipment, Allen states.
Although Allen Industries.
which manufactures cotton, felt
and iute fiber products for use
in auto upholstering and rug and
carpet cushions, had planned an
expansion prior to the war, il is
the company's wartime job
which is forcing the immediate
enlargement. Allen is now a big
supplier of cloth equipment for
the B-24 bomber built by Ford.
incidentally, Allen reports
that the agreed refund of $685.
600 To the government for 1943.
was $1,000 less than the reserve
set up for that purpose.

NEW YORK, March II CUP)-
Stocks rallied again today for the
second consecutive session, but
volume was cut sharply from the
recent pace.
Gains ranging 10 more than a
point were spread over a broad
list with the leaders participating.
Activity again centered on Inter-
national Telephone. whose issues
made new highs. The steels, rails,
oils and mercantiles provided
strong spots. Motors were mar
rowly mixed, sugars strong, and
coppers firm.
Several companies issued favor
able reports which aided their
stocks. r. II. Macy had record
sales and the stock rose more
than a point. Phelps Dodge rose
nearly a point despite a lower
earnings report. Steel shares
were firm despite a lower earn
ings report. Steel shares were
firm despite a small decline in
steel operations-l.5 per cent
caused by floods in the Ohio
Valley.
National Biscuit preferred made
new high and Loose Wiles rose
= points. National Can was
active at new top. New highs
were made by New York Ship
building. Patino Mines and Inter-
national Nickel preferred.
