And. if we can believe the manufacturers, the store buyers show this differ ence from last year: .This year the retailers have that old buying look in their eyea, and their signaturea are going down on grders. These rosy reports come today from a wide variety of consumer goods industries: Shoes, apparel, furniture, home appliances, .toys and varieties. The consumer can note that, while in aome cases prices are a little lower, in many others last year'a tags can still go on this year's products.- The Tanners' Council of America reports record attendance at its fall and winter leathet show here. The large attendance of retailera waa unexpected. Active buying was reported from the start. Firm leather nrice., and therefore stable shoe prices, are forecast by most exhibitors. Production for the year is estimated at 460 million pairs. Shoes Slow .Some council members say mer chandising is still the weak spot in the shoe bu.iness, and they are urging retailers to go slow on emphasizing low or cut prices and new and different styles, and do more talking about foot comfort, foot health and Ion. wear. New York merchants report that spring apparel sales are picking ud at long last with the approach of Easter. But the gain ia only on the distaff side of the store aisles. Men still aren't showing much interest. However, they haven t given the male up as a bad prospect. The National Association of Shirt, Pa jama and Sportswear Manufactur ers thinks sales can be increased 50 per cent in unit volume this year. The association puts its faith in its ability to get the American male more interested in tne growing va riety of styled and utility items. It may be a big year for the kid dies. Orders are reported pouring in at tne American toy lair nere. Officials say both retailers and wholesalers are buying much farther ahead than last year. Prices mostly are firm.

At the first national convention of the Music Operators of America, meeting in Chicago, -nc juke box proprietors see more and better noise ahead for the taverna and soda fountains.

One-World Plan Attacked By VFW SEATTLE. March IJ -tPy-A national official of the Veterans of Foreign Ware aaid Saturday that world government would mean the end of thia country's na tional sovereignty. National aenior vice-commander in-chief Charles G. Ralls of Seattle condemned the current campaign in the state to place a measure on the November ballot calling for United States participation in world government. If 32 states ask that a constitut ional convention be called Congress is required to do so. Six states have already adopted similar mea sures. "Well-meaning but misguided people in Washington state who nave lent their support to the campaign," he said, "would place our state in the position of demand ing Congress to call for a con stitutional convention to amend our constitution for joining the u n acceptable principle of 'peace at any price."' Ralls said the V. F. W. is mus tering its nation-wide strength to fight such a proposal.) HUSBANO WIFE ACTT SALEM JP The possibility of a nusDana-wiie act in tne 1.51 leg islature haa arisen here.
