Dealers inspect Candy Plant
Hundreds of dealers and whoiesalo
buyers of candy have been the guests
of Park & Tilford in their new candy
factory in West Forty-third Street this
week. Holiday goods formed a part
of the special display arranged for the
visiting dealers, many of whom came
from as far as the Pacific Coast. A
luncheon was served the visiting deal?
er? yesterday in the cafeteria of the

Decline of l/gc Lb.
In Cotton Prices
On Heavy Selling
Liquidation Laid to Disap?
pointment Over Failure
of Crop Reports to Slkii
ulatc Increased Buy$?g
There was further liquidation In.', the
?cotton market yesterday, much' of
; which probably reflected disnppo'lnt
: mort over tne failure of continued bull
ish crop predictions to stimulate ifcfcsh
buying?. ^
Thoro were also reports of Southern
hedge selling on the late decline which
i carried December contracts off to 19c,
! compared with 19.52c at the close yes?
terday,? and 21.45c, the high price
touched on the storm scare of last Sat?
urday. This break carried the market
back t? within 80 to 60 points of the
lowest levels touched since the advance
on the August bureau report, which cul?
minated at '??fcc for December and
21.12c for Marcjf contracts. March con
tracts yesterday sold at 18.80c and the
market closed easy at the lowest prices
of the day, showing n net decline of 52
to 67 points, or Msc a pound.
Reports received here from New Or
leans ?said that an organization nf growers
estimated the condition of the crop at 83.5,
and the indicated yield at 8,400,000 boles.
These figures were noi officially confirmed,
but the fai t thnt they und previous fore?
casts of a low end-September crop indica?
tion failed to stimulate the market was
doubtless a disappointment to commission
house longs. Much of Iho selling reached
the market in small luis through commis?
sion house brokers, probably representing
liquidation of contracts purchased on the
storm scare of late last week,
Southern Bpot markets as officially re?
ported wore generally 25 to 7.". points lower,
with Dnllas reporting sales of 5..-.7!) bales
'on the basis of 18.20c fur middling.
The local mantlet tor spot cotton was

Recovery in Wheat

port of Rain Damage in
Northwest Send Prices Up;
Corn Also Turns Firmer
CHICAGO, Sept. 16.?Wheat devel?
oped a little strength to-day, helped by
word that a new German credit was be?
ing arranged. The market closed un?
settled, at the same as yesterday's
finish, to %c higher, mith December
$1.29 to $1.20 Vi. and May $1.33 to
$1 .S314. Corn finished unchanged to
Uc lower, and oats unchanged to V.c
higher. In provisions there were net
gsins of 2V? to 20 cents.
At first tho wheat market showed con?
siderable weakness, owing largely to a
sharp break In sterling exchango. Com?
plete ending of the Argentine drought
.?minted also as a bearlsJi factor, and ?a,
too, did an apparent lull In export demand.
Later, however, sterling turned upward
airain, and more confidence in the foreign
financial outlook was shown, especially
after information was received which gave
some promise of better business conditions
In Germany. Hullish sentiment was fos
tered likewise by advices which empha?
sized rain damage to wheat In shock
north, It was said arrivals at Minne?
apolis were damp and lacked quality and
that millers wero becoming active buyers
at Kansas City. Estimates of farm hold?
ings of winter wheat indicated that only
a small amount remained to come forward
In some sections.
Corn was easy throughout the day, the
bulk of the crop being safe from frost.
Prospective better export trade tended to
strengthen oats.
Higher quotations on hops gave a lift
to provisions.

Aid Fifth City's Recovery
From- a Staff Correspondent
CLEVELAND, Sept. 16.?The canvass
on which present-day industrial Cleve?
land is painted reflects discordant
hues. The picture is blurred. The
business situation in America's fifth
city is described even by the profes?
sional optimists hero as "spotty." And
yet, broadly speaking, business leaders
anticipate no further recession. The
prevalent belief among expert observ?
ers in the banks, business offices and
factories is that the bottom of depres?
sion has been touched and that the
turn moderately upward has started.
E. R. Fancher, governor of the. Fed?
eral Reserve Bank in this district, in
conversation to-day with the Tribune
correspondent who was investigating
conditions spoke cheerfully about the
! outlook. "The general industrial pic?
ture," he said, "is brighter. Business
men and bankers whom I meet are dis?
tinctly mofe optimistic than a few
months ago. Of course, a few still
como in who can see little hope, but
they are now the exceptions. Not so
many months ago the majority could
not see the end of the depression.
Bank Situation Sound
"The banking situation in the Cleve?
land district is sound. The member
banks are gradually working out the
frozen loan problem. The Reserve
Bank has been helpful and liberal in
its policy."
Other principal spokesmen for in?
dustrial Cleveland talked in a similar
manner. The belief is that the city's
business is on the mend, but, since
the patient was exceedingly sick dur?
ing the setback, the recovery is ex?
pected to be gradual. No quick re?
turn to easy prosperity is predicted.
Merchants and manufacturers here
foresee a period of intensified competi?
tion, where only the economic pro?
ducers, the strategic sellers and the
strongly organized will fully succeed.
The main thorn in Cleveland's side
to-day is the problem of unemploy?
ment. But the city is thoroughly
aroused to the seriousness of the
question and several ameliorative
movements are under way. One is
sponsored by the Mayor, who is now
out of the city on a deferred honey?
moon, and the. other is under the !
auspices of the Chamber of Commerce, j
which will soon publish its recom
mendations. Statistics on unemploy- !
ment here are incomplete, but the best j
records indicate 125,000 fewer em?
ployed than* at the peak. Of these, it
is understood many have drifted out j
of the city in quest of work else?
where.
100,000 on City Payrolls
Since July 1, however, business ac?
tivity has expanded and 4.1 per cent j
more individuals are gainfully em- !
ployed. Forty-nine firms, who report j
regularly to the Manufacturers and
Merchants' Board, have increased their i
working forces 11.78 per cent since j
July 1, but the percentage is slightly ?
misleading because several important |
reporting firms were temporarily j
closed on July 1. This group to-day j
employs 18,971 workers, compared with i
40,646 on May 1, 1920, before the down?
ward readjustment. The falling off
amounts to 56.54 per cent. All of Cleve?
land's industries to-day have approxi?
mately 100,000 on their payrolls.
Th?e contraction of trade in the last
year is further measured by statistics ?
of freight, which reveal ;i decline of |
one-third since last September. But the i
railroad figures, too. reflect a slight j
gain since July, which marked the low- j
est period yet attained.
A. S. Ingalls, general manager here
of the New York Central Lines, in
seeking to tell the story of the busi
ness trend from the statistics of
freight and passenger movement de?
clared that the worst seemed over.
Curve Swinging Upward
Speaking from the standpoint of the
man who meets the consumer each day, i
Salmon P. Halle, of the Halle Brothers !
Company department store, a former
president of the National Retail Dry j
Goods Association, asserted that the !
upward swing of the curve of business !
had started, although retail stores
were still feeling the pinching effects
of unemplo-yment and of depression, |
particularly in the steel trade. Cleve- \
land was doing worse in respect to '.
retail sales, he said, than most large
cities, and yet sales in units were j
larger than a year ago, although their ?
dollar value has shrunk.
Cleveland was among the last cities
seriously to feel the effects of a drastic
falling off of trade, and hence is slower j
to come back than some others. Un-1
like Detroit, Cleveland is a city of di?
versified industries and underwent no I
general paralysis of trade such as the
Michigan city experienced last Decem?
ber. The decline here was slower, and
the recovery is likewise more imper?
ceptible than that of Detroit, where
changes are more .precipitate.
Though not a steel city alone, Cleve-'
land has been greatly handicapped by
i he recession in that basic industry,
which came light. The slight improve?
ment in buying in the last sixty days
and the receijt upturn of wire and cer?
tain other steel prices have improved '
sentiment here. Cleveland suffered,
too, from the earlier rubber collapse |
in Akron and elsewhere. Recently,
however, Cleveland has been receiving
more encouraging reports from all the
surrounding cities, from which its mer?
chants normally derive considerable
trade.
Animation in Crude Rubber
Trading in crude rubber yesterday
was somewhat enlivened. Prices, while
not quotably higher, were stronger all
along the line. Manufacturers again
figured prominently in the day's activi?
ties. Although the greater number of
dealers continued to buy close to imme?
diate requirements, there was a notice?
able inclination on the part of some
traders to speculate on future needs.
Offerings of ribbed smoked sheets were !
quoted at 14& cents. The Singapore
and London markets also displayed in?
creased activity.
Failures Show Slight Change
Both R. G. DiAi & Co. and Brad
street's report a slight increase in the
number of commercial failures this
week, compared to the five-day period
of last week.
"The Credit Guide" reports slightly
fewer failures for the current week,
with a slight increase in New York
City. Liabilities were about the same
as the week before. The wearing ap?
parel and dry goods trade contributed
37 per rent of the week'3 failures,
against 39 per cent last week and 42
per cent the week before.
Business News
Bush Terminal Manufacturers
Report Increased Trade Now
Tonnage, T r u c k i n g ami
Power Supply Larger in
August Than July; Ex?
ports Slowly Gain Ground
A marked increase in general activ?
ity and n more rapid movement of
commodities than for sonic months past
is disclosed in figures compiled'among
more than three hundred manufactur?
ers at Bush Terminal, Brooklyn. Ac?
cording to these figures the tonnage
moved in August was 6,000 tons above
that in July. The supply of steam and
electrical power for the manufacturers
showed an increase of 10 per cent, from
July to August, and the trucking in?
creased 35 per cent.
The incoming and outgoing tonnage
among the manufacturers at the Termi?
nai is computed to be almost equal to
the normal tonnage in 1917, just be?
fore the United States went into the
war.
The number of incoming cargoes
shows an increase in August over July
of 15 per cent, and in September over
August of 10 per cent. This is of ships
scheduled to arrive up to October 6.
This list will be increased by ships not
as yet scheduled.
It was stated yesterday that a slight
increase is shown by outgoing cargoes,
the vessels going out with larger car?
goes than for several months past,
when many vessels went out with just
about enough freight for ballast.
Leaving the Terminal for South
Africa and Australian trade the ex?
ports have been fairly heavy. Heavy
shipments of locomotives and railroad
equipment have been sent to China for
some weeks past. A considerable quan?
tity of automobiles has been shipped to
South Africa.
While export trade to South America
is light at the present time, there nave
been fairly heavy shipments of bi rbed
wire and other iron staples and hard?
ware to the Argentina.
Coffee imports from Bra7.il show
signs of improvement. While cargoes
are small, there are more of them.
A decided increase is shown in ship?
ments from the warehouses and from
inland point.j to the Terminal. The
shipments of rubber out of the ware?
houses have increased 50 per cent in
the last month.
Commercial Credit
? Much of the hesitancy in forward
buying among jobbing houses is at?
tributed to a lack of ready capital. A
manufacturer of goods which go into
many dry goods jobbing houses said
yesterday that practically every one
of his customers had written off large
losses last, year, which have not yet
been made up and that this is prevent?
ing their operating on anything but
the smallest possible stocks; regardless
of their des.ires.
Commercial money continued fairly
easy yesterday, with trading moderate.
Commercial paper continues to dis?
count at 6 per cent for most notes.
with exceptionally high grade, short
maturity paper reaching thte market at
5% per cent.
Tho American Acceptance Council
yesterday quoted the following dis?
count rates on prime bankers' accept?
ances eligible for purchase by Federal
Reserve banks:
Bid. Asked.

Knit Men to Advertise
New Plan Presented at Meeting
in This City
Plans for an extensive advertising
campaign to stimulate the demand for
knitted outerwear formed the principal ;
topic of discussion yesterday at the
opening of the two-day, fourth semi?
annual convention of the National
Knitted Outerwear Association at the
Hotel McAlpin. Under a new plan pre?
sented to the membership, in addition
to advertising in consumer publica?
tions, there will be extensive trade
paper advertising and a promotion
service to jobbers and retailer;:, as well
as to manufacturers.
Albert S. Waitzfelder, of the Waitz
felder Braid Company, was elected to
succeed Sidney Worms as president of
the association. Other officers will be
elected to-day.
Speakers at the meeting and others
reported that the knitted outerwear in?
dustry is showing signs of renewed j
activity at present. Bathing suit man- j
ufac/turers, particularly those selling '
their products through jobbers, com-1
plain of delayed buying on the part of J
their customers, which is expected to''
lead to a shortage of merchandise next I
year.
Diamond Imports Gain
Rough Stone Shipments More |
Than Douhled
More than twice as many rough or
uncut diamonds were imported during ;
July than in June, according to the Bu?
reau of Foreign and Domestic Com?
merce. The value of the rough stones
taken from other countries in July ;
totaled $77,612, 'contrasted with $29,521 ;
in June. British Guiana shipped us 1
the largest amount, her exports reach- |
ing $37,476 in value. British South ?
Africa was credited with $35,991. The
aggregate was augmented by small
shipments from Brazil and France.
A substantial increase in the cut
diamond imports during July over ?
June was also shown. Tho shipments >
during the month totaled $2.278,504, |
against $1,702,801 in June. Evidence of i
the buying done by Americans in the '
foreign markets is shown in the large ,
shipments which came from Antwerp, '
totaling $1,213,002 in value. The Neth- j
erlands was credited with $903,642 and j
England with $78,907. Additional ship- j
ments were received from France and
Turkey in Europe.
To Figure Price Changes
Actual figures on the price, changes
that will ensue on many articles sold
by department stores, if the American
valuation clause is included in the new '
tariff bill, will be computed in the new ?
at a special meeting to be held in the
headquarters of the National Retail Dry '
Goods Association. I^ew Hahn, manag?
ing director of the association, yester?
day sent out a call for the meeting to
the heads of foreign departments in ,
the stores of members. The figures
computed will be used as a part of tu?
association's campaign against the pro- i
posed American valuation plan.
Cotton Goods Prices Soften j
A part of the recent advances made ''
in unfinished cotton goods prices was :
lost yesterday, when offerings at slight?
ly lower prices were reported bj a
number of brokers. Many converters:
and other urfers of gray goods refused
to follow the market up, and sales for
the current week were lighter than for
some time past. Reports from Fall
River indicate sales in that district
this week of about 50,000 pieces, com?
pared to close to 400,000 pieces in the
two previous weeks, and totals rang?
ing: from 100,000 to 250,001? pieces in'
July and August.
u-'?'
Sees Continuation
Of Business Advance
The improvement in business be
gun two months ago continues, ac
cording to the weekly analysis of
business conditions by "The Credit
Guide."
"Each succsslve week," says this
?znalysis, "has reported a better con?
dition over the previous week. Many
manufacturers whose plants were
idle two months ago are now operat?
ing a substantial part of their ma?
chinery, while a large number who,
f'uir months ago, were inclined to
throw out their lines for trade are
operating at full force.
"The only industry in the general
wearing apparel l?ne that has not
picked up in the substantial fashion
that others have is the fur line, and
signs of improvement in this busi?
ness are visible. Men's and women's
clothing and general furnishings
are doing a good volume, with sub?
stantial increase over previous
weeks. The shoe line reports con?
siderable betterment and the cotton
and wool districts are reporting
substantially increased sales at con?
siderably increased prices."

Textile Exposition
To Be Largest Ever
Unprecedented Nnniber of Ma?
chines To Be Shown in
Boston Next Month
Sppr.inl Ditpatch to The Tribun?
BOSTON, Sept. 16.?By far the
I greatest show of its kind ever.given in
: th?3 country will be the International
Textile Exposition to be held here
October 31 to November 5. In this
j seventh exposition conducted by the
j textile industry 387 exhibitors have
taken all tho available 125,000 square
feet of space on the two floors and
; balconies of the exhibition and gTand
hall in Mechanics Building. It has
also been found necessary to use Paul
Revere Hail.
j With twice the number that usually
\ occupy booths, the exposition will be
'? more complete in every detail than any
' previous one. An unprecedented nurn
. ber of machines will be displayed in
: actual operation. This includes equip?
ment from the picker room of a cot
; ton mill to that used in the dyeing,
, finishing and cloth room. Another
feature will be the power department,
. which will comprise exhibits of every?
thing new and important in transmis?
sion in a textile mill. Products allied
to the textile trade will also be shown,
; and for the first time the finished
: product by many of the largest mills in
the country.
Besides the convention of the Na?
tional Association of Cotton Manufac?
turers, to which delegates from every
mill center in the United States,
Canada, and in some instances Eng?
land, will come, the New England As?
sociation of Commercial Engineers,
which has devoted its energies to
promoting the power show, will meet
in Boston the same week in which the
show is held.

Feeling in Leather
Trade More Cheerful
Although the hide and leather mar?
kets are still passing through the dol?
drums, there is a disposition among
traders to regard the outlook with
more optimism. Leading factors pointed
out that while purchasing continues to
be of a hand to mouth character, buy?
ers are keeui g in closer touch with the
market. Except on the poorer grades
of hides und leather, little encourage?
ment in the way of price concessions
is accorded prospective buyers.
Speculation is the character that is
entirely lacking in buying, a prominent
tanner remarked. In his opinion, most
buyers expect shipment the same day
the order is received. Failure to cope
with this sudden situation, he asserted,
often results in cancellation of the or?
der. Shoe manufacturers are said to
be confronted with the same problem.
- ?
Jewelry Sales Increase
The jewelry division of the Bush Ter?
minal Sales Building reported sales dur?
ing August in excess of sales in the
same month a year ago. Buyers are
said to be placing a greater number of
advance delivery orders as contrasted
with those for immediate delivery and
holiday business is being booked. The
advance in cotton is said to be stimu?
lating buying in Southern territory and
is regarded as an upward influence else?
where.
