Retailers Urged To Stop Buying To Reduce Prices Suggestion Meet? With Ap? proval at Convention of Dry Goods Men ; Fraudu? lent Advertising Attacked Retailer? ycstordny were urged to hold off buying for nn indefinito period in order to bring down prices, and so avert a catastrophe. The suggestion, made n1 the closing; session of iho day convention of the National Retail Dry Goods Association, met with the ap? proval of a majority of the retailers present, judging by the enthusiasm with which it was received. The sug? gestion was made by Felix Voronberg, of the Gilchrist Company, Boston. "What are we going to do about con? ditions in the market?" he asked. "What, are you coing to do about plac? ing your orders for this corning spring andf fall seasons? What are you going to do about the general condition of being told by manufacturers and job? bers just when to place your orders, just how to place them at the price agreed to by him and not by you? And what are you going to do about con-j ditions that, are bound to confront you in the very near future if nn adjust? ment of prices should take place? "Our president said here on the opening day that he couldn't see but what prices would have to continue for the year of 1020. I respectfully but most emphatically disagree. I per? sonally can't see what, is going to hap? pen if they do continue. I think there is enough manhood left in us I hope, at. least, there is? to most, emphatically protest, against, conditions which nre ? un-American, against conditions which ? are bound to be disastrous before very j long." Next to the discussion of market con- | ditions, which all retailers asserted i were serious, the most important ac- | tivity of the convention was the en-' thusiasm aroused by Richard H. Lee, | special counsel of the national vigi- i ?anee committee- of the Associated Ad? vertising Clubs of the World and for mer business manager of The New York Tribune, who attacked fraudulent advertising fn a vigorous address. Specifically Mr. Lee attacked the use of comparative prices in advertising, and the use of deceptive names, such as i-iik lisle," "union linen," etc. Complications caused by the excess profits tax, according to Daniel C. Roper, Commissioner of Internal Reve? nue, who discussed taxes for the retail merchants, should be eliminated. He told of the work in his department toward the simplification of taxes, but asserted that real reform depends en? tirely upon Congress. One of the big problems, he asserted, was to deter? mine whether the war should be paid; for by this generation or the debt be : passed on to our descendants. Taxes came in lor some consider? ation in the resolutions which were adopted by the convention lin the after? noon. The tax resolution stamped the luxury, excise and excess profita taxes as "unjust" and recommended the con? tinuation of the association's tax com? mittee, cooperation with similar com? mittees of other organizations and with the Chamber of Commerce of the United States in urging tax reform. Other resolutions pledgetl the sup? port of the association to the project of the Chamber of Commerce to erect a building in Washington and to the dissemination of the Constitution of the ! United States in fifteen or more for- '' eign languages\throughout the coun? try. The par collection of checks movement was approved, and another resolution pledged the merchants to take a firm stand against the raising of prices by wholesalers after orders were taken, and to report, such cases to the association's office in New York in order that they might be referred to the Department of Justice. Mrs. Margaret Hayden Rorke made a ; plea for the greater use of the Amer? ican color card, and Philip J. Mosenthal discussed insurance problems of the ' retailers. H. E. liart, a retailer, of; Long Prairie, Minn., gave the retailers a number of "business building ideas." ! -?._ Business Troubles ! refilions In Honkruptcy Petitions in bankruptcy filed in KiC] United States District Court yesterday j wrio as follows: JCAUSHANSKY ?- QI.USS?Involuntary | petition against Kaushansky ?- Gluss, 84 | Eldridge Street..

COTTOiNS?Prices Stay Up in Dull Market The cotton goods market, especially among primary sources, is drifting along from day to day without much apparent change. Prices in the gray or unfinished goods market have remained stationary with little action? all week. Orders are small and spotty, accord? ing to brokers, and the big buyers of gray goods, including converters and , shirt manuacttirers, arc out of the ! market at present, in finished goods, the demand, while steady, is small, sell? ing agents say, except in cases of much needed goods where new offerings arc, made. Some of the big mill agents assert that the present lull in business is purely seasonal and is giving them a chance to catch up on back orders. At tho same time there is disposition | among ninny of them to hesitate at ' taking orders for future delivery. Prices are still holding firm, although the rapid advances noted up to a month ago appear to be checked, ac? cording to some factors. Big jobbers, for the most part, think that prices have reached their peak. SILKS?Taffetas and Satins Fairly Active Taffetas and satin-faced goods in ?lark colors are showing more activity than other varieties of silks. Retailers, who are buying conservatively now, show a disposition to take goods of this nature more freely because of their staple character an<l the fact that they are "all season" goods. The retailers are buying mostly from the smaller .jobbers, who in many cases are unload? ing their stocks to gel ready money to meet their bilis. Buyers report, picking up attractive bargains among the smaller houses which find themselves in this condition. In buying now the retailers insist on immediate delivery and say they will hold some of their purchases for fall use in case the big producers do not start fall production in time to sup? ply their demand. Several of the large silk manufacturers are holding back on showing fall goods, because of the pres? ent unsettled state of the goods market and the raw silk market. So far the largest manufacturers have made no i attempt toward lowering prices, and are going on the assumption that ! prices must be higher for fall goods. However, they feel that the present time is not one in which to launch a drive for business at advanced price levels. JEWELRY?Many Foreign Buyers Visit Local Market As an indication of the demand for American jewelry from all parts of the world, it was stated yesterday that dur? ing the last week buyers were in the local market from Chile, Venezuela, New Zealand, Greece, Cape Town, Canada, Calcutta and Sweden. It is said that these buyers were in the market for all kinds of jewelry, from plated goods to the most expensive of gold and platinum articles. Xew Zealand and Swedish buyers were particularly anxious to obtain rolled gold jewelry, which formerly was pur? chased from German manufacturers. In addition to making direct purchases, a number of foreign importers who were unable at this time to visit the New York and Attleboro markets have sent large orders through tho mail, one sil? verware manufacturer closing a deal with a Norwegian dealer for the sale of $45,000 worth of a popular patterned silver spoon. As silver is selling at a premium in Norway, this dealer was only too glad to pay any price the Fochtig, James A.-?Bank for Savings In the City of New York . 182.15 ??rent Northern Construction Co., Inc.?United Electric Light and power <'o. n?:;.o?

K<fV. 20, 101S. 656.71 manufacturer might ask in order to ? receive stocks of silverware Buyers from Chile and Venezuela , visited the Attlcboro market in search of" a varied line of merchandise. One, jeweler from Chile deposited a large amount of money with banks in this ; country, against which payments for all the purchases he might make will bo taken. Another jeweler had ?50,000 , in cash with which he was willing to i buy rings, pins, earrings and silver? ware. As no prohibition laws have ! touched youth America as yet, silver i flasks, wine service trays and cocktail mixers find a ready sale with buyers from that country. Tho feature in the export jewelry ?business is that practically all sales nre transacted on a spot cash basis. I] Ko reign buyers ???em to have an abun i'dant, supply of money, which they are 'willing to spend on any article that I they think will find a ready sale in ?their native lands. Although German 1 manufacturers have already started a \ drive to regain the export jewelry I trade they once held, to date the Amer 1 ?can products are said to be in greater I favor than articles of German origin. ?LEATHER?Stocks of ?Cloves Smallest in Years Stocks of gloves, according to manu- I "facturera, are at the lowest point and | prices at the highest in nearly half a century. Many retailers are ordering ! now in anticipation of their ffUl de- ( | mands, for there is a marked shortage ; in the supply. Leather gloves of all ! kinds nre wanted for immediate de? ll ?very, but nowhere in the market does ! there seem to be any signs of relier. The new gauntlet six. eight and' ! twelve button gloves are the most ; popular with the buyers, and since the ' manufacture of these stales is much ! more difficult, the situation is rendered ' more acute. The demand for short. I gloves continues to be heavy and any gloves of leather, regardless 0f color ! or style, are readily purchased as fast as they can be found. The present state of affairs has been expected for months back, but it ?3 only now that ; the full seriousness of the situation can be. realized. From every quarter of the glove market one hears the same ; tale of shortage of merchandise with j no relief in sight. Because of the hardships encountered ; in manufacturing it is expected that i the styles in gloves for the coming ! season will remain about the same. Prominent manufacturers declare that f there would bo little incentive to try : out. new fnshions, and, in addition, the | absolute shortage that is constant in the trade would seem to argue in favor , of continuing the present styles over into the summer and fall seasons. This will mcjit likely prove to be the case : until Lne industry has been able to catch up with orders and make some progress toward rehabilitation. Abnormally high prices for fabric j gloves is another factor in the increased demand for leather merchandise. Cus ?tornera seem more ready to pay a Sigh price for leather gloves than they do for the fabric kind. The value received in the former seems more gratifying than in fabric gloves, and consumers willingly pay the difference for leather, even though the prices takes into con? sideration the scarcity of supply. Leather glove manufacturers do not favor present conditions, for the shift in demand onviy tends to emphasize the acute lack of merchandise. There is a strong demand at present for shades of brown in women's gloves. Brown, beaver and Havana are in the front ranks of demand, and for men the trend seems to be in the same di? rection. Brown and gray are selling in mochas, and in othx-r leathers the darker colors are wanted. The range of colors is decidedly smaller than in normal years, but is continuing along the line that has been noticed for so*me 1 few seasons back. Dayley, Annie G. W.?D.

Hustis, presi? dent of the Boston & Maine Rail? road, who spoke last nio/ht before 1,000 members of the Xew York Railroad Club, 2!) West Thirty-ninth Street. "Cooperation among railroad em? ployees from the presidents to the humble.--', workers will be essential to bring the roads up to an efficiency pos? sible under the conditions under which ? the roads will be returned." said Mr. Hustis. "Mr. Hoover's remark in a measure represents public sentiment. But I believe that railroad men will show a spirit which will prove that the ??challenge was well taf-en. Our object will be service, safe, reliable, expedi? tious." C. A. Wright, editor of "The Railway Age," asserted that the railroads were determined to make good with the pub? lic. He said that whether legislation would be provided which would help them to make -.rood remains to be seen. H. C. Manchester, president of the club, was chairman. L. F.

Canada to Breed Reindeer Herd From Alaska To Be In? stalled on Hudson's Bav MONTREAL, lieb. 20.?The Dominion ??overnment has contracted with F. S. Lawrence, of the Peace River district, for imr.ortation of reindeer from Alaska, it was learned here to-day. The North American Reindeer Company has been formed and free grazing rights on 70,000 rquare miles of land on the west shore of Hudson Bay have been . granted. According to Harry Bragg, Canadian representative of the Reindeer Com? pany, a Chicago firm is to finance the project, and arrangements have been made to import 2 000 reindeer this year for breeding? meat and hide pur? poses. The animals will be shipped to : Prince Rupert from an Alaskan port. and thence to Manitoba, it was said. ?'? ??,., ,., ? Business Items *: E.

The communication, which ?vas made public here last night, asks Secretary Polk to take the steps necessary to place Amer? ican business interests "upon an equal footing with rival foreign business in? terests without delay." After explaining that the association was authorized at it meeting on Feb? ruary 2 to speak for more than 100 American firms, tho letter says: "We have information from unim? peachable British sources that large sums of Russian gold have already been deposited in British banks for trade purposes and that British firms are already drawing against, these de? posits for goods actually being shipped to Russia.
