than i n the corresponding month of

"Bradstreet's," numbering only 511,
which compares with 486 in December,
191 ' and 573 for January, 1918. Fail?
ures during the month reported as
'? of S4.304.S03 and liabilities of'
59,464,756, against $7,242,489 in assets
and $12,581,549 in liabilities in the
corre ponding month of the preceding;
year. Liabilities were fairly largo, j
owing to the occurrence of a few sus-:
pensions which do not in themselves
? dicate any structural weakness in
general business.

COTTONS?Goods
Are More Plentiful
Cotton goods in the primary and
finished fabric markets are more plen?
tiful than they have been for .ionic
time past. There has boon no reces?
sion in finished good?, but in some
quarters of the gray or unfinished
goods mnrket second hands have
shaded prices slightly to induce sales.
AU along the line, however, buyers are
showing a disposition to stnv out of
:ho market at present. While mills
have increased their offerings of some
classes of gocds. principally bleached
fabrics, the largest, offerinirs arc com?
ing from second hands, including spec?
ulators nnd converters. In some cases
the latt.-r had purchased mor:- than
their requirements and are now "get?
ting out from under."
Another source of supply has been
.inrn<-d by exporters, many of whom
lad bought goods for foreign ship?
ment, but are now turning thorn hack
to the domestic trade because of the
falling off in foreign demand brought
about by the low rates of exchange a*
;? r.u'h European cune,ices arc quoted.
Ill's is taken ns the tirs! indication of
a reaction from the curtailment of our
foreign trmic in the textile markets.
SILKS?Unsettled
Conditions Slow Down Trade
Unsettled conditions in the silk
??ods market have brought trade
activities to a low point. Manufac?
turers are div.?led into two camps,
those who think prices will advance
and those who believe that a decline
in the near future is imminent. Both
opinions lead to a conservatism in
selling. In the secondary market, par?
ticularly among the smaii jobbers who
arc newcomers in the business, price
shading is growing more widespread.
These men are used to rapid turnovers,
and the slow buying activities of it>
tailers and garment manufacturers, :
together with some pressure by their
banks, are causing them to sacrifice
some of ?hoir stocks for ready cash.
Even at the reduced prices they are
reaping a fair margin of profit, on their
investment.
Absence of reports from Japan dur?
ing the past few days, because of the '
break in the Pacific cable, has he!?
up dealing in raw silks. Importers are
holding prices firm at levels slightly ,
below those of last week. Some silk
goods manufacturers who had a sur?
plus of raw stock on hand are putting
it on the market now. Most of the
trading in raw silks for the past week
has been of this character. Prices,
however, are too high to permit of
large, buying, and sales are made only'
when the buyer actually needs the
stock to keep his mill running.
JEWELRY? Watchmakers
Strike Hampers Trade
The strike among the watchmakers
employed by members of the Watch
Importers' Association and other houses ?
in New York, which began in the end !
of December, is still on, and the trade
is being seriously inconvenienced as
a result of the controversy. The
strikers are members of the Amalga?
mated Watch and Clock Makers' Cnion,
I ccal No, 31, while the organization
fighting them consists principally of
watch importers, an association thut
wan formed shortly before the begin?
ning of 1920, Members of the associa
tioi declare there are about three
hundred workmen now on strike.
As one of the committee of the im- -
porters' association explained the issue, I
there was an attempt to curtail pro- !
auction, then a series of demands for !
increases in wages, the last being on
January 5, when the workmen de- I
manded a 20 per cent raise. i

LEATHER?B eat her
Helps Sale of Heavier Shoes
More seasonable weather, with con?
siderable min and snow, has given ihe
local retailers a chance to offer heavy
footwear. The several days of slightly
higher temperature which produced
slush and mud had a stimulating effect
011 the demand for heavy shoes, and
dealers are having the firs: real rush
of the present season. Stores arc
featuring heavy shoes at slightly re?
duced prices, and many sales have re
| suited. These sales are largely con
t fined to stated lots of certain short
I lines of seasonable numbers, and. as
i bouts the present cost trend in foot
wear, the sale prices do not reveal
any genera! disposition to cut very
deeply. Shoes of a reasonable style
are considered trood merchandise at
present, and evidently dealers will
carry over considerable staples rather
than make any real sacrifice.
Brooklyn manufacturers are fast
shipping out Easter footwear. The
smartest creations for light spring
wear are popular, and local houses are
rushed in taking care of the orders
for all kinds of pumps. The shortnge
of wood heels continues to hold back
shipments in some cas"s, and leather
heels are being substituted. Relief
in this heel situation is expected very
shortly. Ornamented models and bow
and tie effects arc featuring the spring
production.
Unprecedented development and ex?
pansion in the shoe manufacturing
industry is looked, for during the pres?
ent year. Most of the shoe manufac?
turers in this locality have some form
of building under way, and in some
cases of an extensive nature. Tose
most familiar with conditions declare
that nearly all local firms have
reached the limit of productive ca?
pacity with present facilities, and it
will be only a short time before added
space and equipment will be a ne?
cessity.

' Pell Opposes Rail
Ownership by I). S.
As Political Evil
_
Foresees Powerful Machine
in Interest of Dominant
Party Formed Out of Men
Who Remain in Service
Representative Herbert C. Poll jr. of
the 17th New York Congressional dis?
trict made public yesterday n letter he
Im ? sent, to John !-.. Gray, of the Order
! of Railway Conductors, in which he
sets forth his reasons for opposing
government ownership of railroads.
He believes that government owner?
ship would linn:; politics into the ad
ministartion of tho carriers; that it
would develop the management into a
bureaucracy or a political machine, tnd
that it would introduce sectionalism
into e.s pan don of t ho roads.
Mr, Poll's letter was in reply to one
from Mr, Gray and the other Empire
State heads oi" t!>o railroad brother?
hood.?, \V, C. Wish, of the engineers;
rhomas K. Rynn, of the enginemen and
John Fitzgibbons. of the trainmen.
These four mel at Albany on January
:'l and agreed to write to eneh of New
York's Senator? and Representatives,
ut reel ing atteni ion i the "I wo year
extension government bill," which is
:.'? ored b.\ the brotherhoods* who are
opposed to the Cummins' bill and the
lisch bill, re pectively the Senate and
I louse me is i re -'
In his letter Mr. Pell said:
"Almost all the objections that ha-e
been n ???! ? to private ownership have
be >n based on errors of finance, not on
errors of administration. A proper
regulation of the financing of rai roads
is n p< - ? ? c ? tu- ici ?cal thing Lo have,
withotit having governmental adminis?
tration of tin road n.-e!!'. The ele?
mentary principles of law am! justice
can be applied properly to financing a
toad, bul there are no such clear rules I
that will apply to running it.
"Supnose the government takes over
nil the roads. There are about 2,000,
000 men directly or indirectly employed
by the railroads. That raises imme?
diately t?;.- question of promotion. \Vo
start off with a staff, but some men will
go out. Others have to be promoted
to take their places. If you advance
youi men by seniority, that simply
means automatically 'tiring-' your good
men. If a man merely works up by the
length of time he has served, obviously
the more capable man would be able to
rise more rapidly elsewhere. So you
will develop a rather incompetent, bu?
reaucracy. If, on the other hand, you
try to make any system of si-lection,
you tire bound to get a political ma?
chine. The men will owe their posi?
tions to the party in power, and to that
party will be their first allegiance
lather than the general pblic.
"Under government ownership nu
i;i:i itionably you would have a certain;
amount of sectionalism, of which about i
90 por cent would be absolutely honest.
For example, I understand the railroad >
needs of my district quite well. I
would try to meet them because I un?
derstand them. I do not understand'
the conditions in other parts of the
country so well, and they do not appear
to me as important. Now, the dominant
party will of necessity serve those dis-|
tricts from which it conies. In that
v.i.y you will not fret a road constructed
primarily to serve the public as you
will under private ownership. Remem
br theat a railroad will only make
money if it serves the public, and
money will not cune in unless the pub?
lic wants to use the road. In a pri
vately run road, where profits is the
primar) incentive, real, genuine and
mediate nunlie service will be a neces?
sary concomitant to its successful man?
agement.
"There is one other phase which I
sh Id like to consider. That is the
qu? stion of great improvements. We
have in New York City the Pennsyl-'
vania Terminal, an extraordinarily ex?
pel sive building. Another case is on
tin Lackawanna, where an enormous
expense was incurred in straightening
out a part of the road a couple of
miies long. With our system of elec?
tions every two years, it will be ini
rossible for any administration to bur?
den itself with improvements of this
sort, because each succeeding railroad
administrator will have to show a rec?
ord of low rates. The man who looks
ahead will 'nave a bad record, and the
pblic wil not think of the future."

Loans io Farm Banks
Temporarily Suspended
Applications Hehl I p Pending
Decision of Supreme Court
on Constitutionality of Act
WASHINGTON, Feb I. Pending a
decision by the Supreme Court of the
United States on tit" constitutionality'
of the farm loan act. till future applica?
tions for loans from Federal farm loan
banks will be held in abeyance. Farm
Loan Commissioner Norris announced
to-night. The policy of the board to
suspend temporarily the making of
loans does not affect loans for which
applications already are in the hands
of the farm loan representatives,
however, Mr. Norris said, adding that
such transactions would be completed
under the regulations in effect since the
system was created.
Officials explained the adoption of the
new policy as having been due to a de?
sire on the part of the ~arm r.oim
Hoard not to defeat the plans of indi?
vidual borrowers if, ?n any event, loans
cannot be made. Should the act he
held unconstitutional applications for
loans necessarily could no longer be
considered. In issuing the general in?
structions to both joint stock and farm
loan banks to hold up actual closing
of further loans, the board advised
them that prospective borrowers must
be informed of the possibility which
centered in the legal decision as a
measure of protection to them.
The United States District Court
sustained the constitutionality of the
act. but an appeal was taken to the Su?
preme Court, where the case was ar?
gued January 6.
Wage Parley Still Deadlocked
Union Heads Confer Alone Af?
ter Meeting H i lies
WASHINGTON, Feb. t. Railroad1
administration officials and representa?
tives of the railroad unions, in con?
ference on wage demands of the more
than _',00n.000 workers, still were apart
to -eight on practically all angles of
the wage ouestions. The union heads
held onlv a brief session with Director
Genera] Hi?es and his staff, after which
they were in conference alone.
Neither Mr. Mines nor any of the
workers' representatives would discuss
the day's event. There were evidences,
however, that the sessions would ex
tend over several days. Mr. Hines will
meet with the union officials again to?
morrow. '
Gompers Called "Radical
Wolf in Sheep's Clothing"
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4. Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, was attacked in
the House ajrain to-day by Representa?
tive Blanton, Democrat, of Texas. Ris
! ing to a point of personal privilege.
Mr. Blanton declared that "this radical
wolf has been posing too long in
sheep's clothing."
Taking exception to "being called a
liar by Gompers." Blanton said that in
i his state the rules of fair play pre
! vented a personal attack "on women,
1 old men and cripples.-'
