Lion's Share of
Prosperity Going
To Five Industries
Jewelry and Auto Manufact?
ures Are Most Favored
Now, Nation-Wide Sur?
vey of Conditions Shows
Reports by geographical districts to
the National Association of Manufact?
urers indicate that business activity
is far below normal, except in jewlry
and automobile manufacturing centres.
The lion's share of present prosperity,
according to a survey of trade condi?
tion;; which the association nas just
completed among -1,-100 manufacturing
?timents comprising it? member?
ship, t'alis to five ot* the twenty-two ;
principal groups of industries. Jew?
elry and silverware, musical instru- i
ni nts, vehicles (.including automo?
biles), rubber and tobacco arc- the in
lustnal divisions In winch business is
ni ist active.
Sixteen of the remaining seventeen
groupa shown in the classification re?
ported business below BO per cent of
il, some of them as low as 23
per cent of normal, and the reports
from the leather and leather goods in?
dustry, which was ti-.e exception, were
about evenly divided between fair and
good.
Confidence is not lacking in the re?
ports received from manufacturers
throughout the country, though the
canvass shows that the majority do
not regard the trade probabilities for
the remainder of 1919 as bright. For
the brewing and distilling interests
the future assumes an ultramarino
hue.
In the general order of importance
the following factors are stated to be
the chief obstacles now prevailing to
prevent general business activity:
(1) Delay in signing the treaty of
peace.
(2) General high costs of labor and
materials.
(3) Sudden cessation of war-buying
operations by the L'nited States and
foreign governments.
(4) Hand-to-mouth buying by job?
bt rs, retailers and consumers await?
ing expected price reductions.
(5) Continued government control,
management and operation of rail- |
roads, etc.
(6) Sudden imposition of heavy war
revenue tax burdens on industry.
(7) Labor unrest, agitation and in?
dustrial strife.
(8) High prices of wheat due to.
government guarantee.
(9) I'nemployment and poor dis?
tribution of labor forces released from
military or naval service.
(10) DHay in settlement by Federal
government of claims for payment un?
der informal war contracts.
(11) Partial shutting off of impor- !
tant European markets due to import i
trade embargoes by Great Britain,'
Trance and Italy.
Replies received to a question con- I
ing the relative importance of the
f ? ign and domestic trade reveal a
preponderance of the prospective re?
quin "?' the latter are far more
attractive lor the immediate future than
any which might arise from the recon
struction needs of Europe. Opposition !
to any form of government ownership
of railroads or other public utilities
was also overwhelming.
in most every group of industries it
was reported that manufacturing
stocks in the hands of jobbers and re?
tailers at the present time an i i
below normal. Except in the five in?
dustries already mentions, reports
are that buying by retailers (or
bers) has been mostly on a ham
mouth basis ever since the signing of
b armistice.

( HICAGO, April 14. - Seventy-five
: members of the National Drygoods As
; sociation at a meeting here to-day ex?
pressed the opinion that the bottom
? had been reached in prices, and to iri
; .-uu' fall 03.?very there must be quick
r.ntl liberal purchases. Reports showed
that retailers have been buying freely
during the last two weeks, but it was
j said that because of labor trouble.! it
I was necessary that further early pur?
chases bo made if deliveries are to be
expected this fall.
Closing of mills in different parts oi
the country had so restricted produc?
tion that orders now have to be placet
two and three months in advance it
j order to have them exocuted, said th<
i drygoods men. It was the consensus
! of opinion of those attending the meet
inf.! that prices will go no lower, nut
witNtanding contrary predictions, am
a general effort will be made to main

Citric acid was reduced in price r
manufacturers yesterday from $1.25 1
$1.19 cents a pound. Approximate!
70,000 pounds arrived last week fro
j England and Italy and further larj
shipments are expected in the ne:

Large quantities of acetic acid, us<
for textile purposes, were wanted 1
English consumers. This includes bo
the glacial acid, which is 99Vd per ce
acid and V?? per cent water, and the :
per cent quality. Canadian manufac
urers are competing keenly in the sa
of this chemical in the English markt
! Substantial orders for acetic acid we
also reported from South America,
brisk export demand for alumina si
phate, used in the manufacture of to
tiles, bichromate of soda, employed
i color making, was reported.
Export demand for caustic soda w
: on the increase, according to leadi
dealers. The market for this coi
] modity has been somewhat strengt
i ened by the announcement of tin? g(
ernment's intention of selling its ?
'? cumulations through producers ?it pi
vailing market prices. Caustic soda
quoted at around $2.60 per hundr
pounds.
Orders for sulphate of ammor
from Spain are also increasing. T
price for this product, used as a i'<
tilizer, is around 54.95 per hund?
pounds. England is a strong co

Wants More Ait Woven
Into American Upholstery
More Trained Designers Needed to Make Rig
Trade Built Up Duri ng War Permanent, Says
Head of Association Representing Industry
MOST of the upholstery being
used in furnishing and decorat?
ing American homos is pro?
duced in American mills. Large quan
! tities are also being exported to coun
| tries which before the war bought
; chiefly from English and French pro
; ducers. American made upholstery
; fabrics have even been shipped to Eng
; land and Franco.
Hut while the industry under the
spur of war demands has achieved
quantity production it will be neces
: snry, so George McGeachin, president
of the Upholstery Association of Amer?
ica, avers, to produce goods of greater
artistic merit to hold the trade built
, up in the last two or three years. In
1 stead of adapting tho designs origi?
nated by European producers, as they
have done to a large extent heretofore
the American makers of textiles used
for upholstering and decorating, Mr
McGeachin contends, must develop de?
signs of their own, distinctive and em?
bodying the true spirit of Americar
art.
"To accomplish this," he said yester
day. "we will have to train men for the
' work. A mere artist is not enough it
this industry. We need men who havi
? originality in an artistic sense com
bined with a practical knowledge o
| weaving looms and other machiner;
I used in the production of upholster;
I textiles. It is easy enough to get an;
I number of new designs for cretonnes
] for example, but one that can he used
! practically is rare ndeed. The artist
: usually has no conception of the limits
of the machinery or any practical
knowledge of commercial colors. Few
of 'hem, for instance, know more than
; eight colors in one fabric cannot be
; produced practically.
"America has gone in for quantity
production, and unless a design lends
itself to production in thousands of
yards the mills do not want it. There
is a great field for the making of really
artistic and distinctive upholstering
fabrics.
"However, the immediate problem
; confronting the industry is to produce
enough material to satisfy an unprec?
edented demand. Such restrictions as
! retarded production somewhat during
the war period have been lifted, and
buying for the fall season, which al?
ready has begun, presages a most ro
; markablo business. There is a short
' age of materials in the hands of re
tailers and decorators and their clients
are pressing them for goods. While
; the cheaper grades of cotton materials
i have declined slightly in price, on the
liner grades there have been advances
?Cotton velvet, one of the most widelj
used mat.'liais in our trade, has ad?
vanced and so have other malcri?is
! When a cheaper fabric increases t(
| such a point that it is no longer cheat

Overshadowing all other topics in
I the commercial paper market was the
| Victory Loan announcement and its
probable influence on prevailing money
rates. The most pleasant surprise was
the specified amount of only $4,500,
000,000, which compared with expecta?
tions of $5,000,000,000 to $6,000,000,
000. That, together with the rate of
4\'i per cent, exempt from normal in
i come tax and convertible into 3%, per
: cent bonds wholly tax exempt, practi?
cally disposes of the fear of some
hanks that they would have to take a
larger part of this than of previous is?
sues.
This has led to the hope on the part
of paper brokers that easier rates are
in prospect. Easier rates normally
stimulate borrowing by business.. And
it is getting business to bourow, and
not getting the banks to lend, that
mainly concerns the paper broker
nowadays. But a curiosity of the
present situation is that business does
not seem to be greatly interested In
rates. If it wants to borrow it will
willingly pay o'-j per cent; if it
doesn't, and most concerns do not, .*>
per cent will not tempt it. Brokers
have never found it so difficult to get
business to borrow, and have ceased

Possibilities of American trade with

I to look for improvement until the
! peace question is settled. Meanwhile,
! they cannot find employment for their
! capital.
The tendency toward ease has been
j maintained. One broker reported yes
: terday his first sale of one block of
paper in New York City at 5 per cent.
. Several brokers reported sales in the
j city at 5Va per cent. These sales are
I only for the best names. Most of the
paper being offered is still at 5M? per
cent, but it-is contended by one dealer
?that New York banks cannot get the
type of names they want for less than
.Vi, Nevertheless, the generality of
I brokers continue to quote the trading
rate at 5J/? per cent and say there is
; as much paper selling above that rate
as there is below.
Most acceptance dealers reported a
poor market yesterday. One house ex?
perienced an improvement in both the
i supply of paper coming out and the
! demand for it. Call money, in spite
of ease looked for in some quarters on
account of the loan announcement, con?
tinued firm at 0 per cent.
Fifteen to sixty day prime trade ac?
ceptances were quoted at 5@5V4 per
cent; sixty to ninety days, 5@5% per
cent; indorsed trade acceptances, -1'-L

Novelties Lead in
Woollen Goods Trade
Larger Buying Exported to Re?
sult From Wearing of
"Gay" Clothes
Buyers of woollen goods for fall in
both the men's and women's apparel
lines keep up their insistent demand
for novelties. 1 o percentage of
novelties bought this year compared
to the more staplo lines has been one
of the features of the fall selling sea?
son. The selling agents see in this a
cause of much greater business than
in seasons when the staples lead the
trade. They believe that the fact that
novelties aro in style will create more
ss because the '.nun or woman
who is wearing a conservative color or
pattern will want to follow the fash?
ion's lead. Also people tire more
quickly of the gay hues a: d conspicu?
ous patterns than they do o? the more
staple fabrics and arc inclined to re?
plenish their wardrobes more often,
lough the fall selling season for
's fabrics has not progressed as
far as .has the men's wear fall season,
early orders indicate that the coat,
suit and dress manufacturers believe
the coming fall season will bo o
which the novelties will lead the field.
This does not mean, though, say the
woollen selling agents, that the sta
rj.li s will be neglected. Through the
market there is current a strong de?
mand for the higher class of Btaple
fabrics. [n cloths for the women's
trade there is a shortage of fine serges
and tricotines, gabardines and poiret
twills for immediate use. It is ex
: ocl ' thai thi; shortage will extend
through the fall season, and once a
fabric becomes difficult to obtain H is
ti peculiar trait of the trade to de?
mand : :.

ufacturer? reported that the output of
a popular brand of woven shirtings
produced by his concern had been sold
up to the first of next. January. Busi?
ness in bleached goods, while good, was
not so large as that in the colored
goods and in bleached fabrics.
Seine brands of bleached muslins
were advanced in pri?e, and one of the
leading Southi rn manufacturers of un
bleai hed sheetings advanced prices
one-quarter to one half cent a yard.
