OUT OUR WAY
Retailers Getting That Old
Buying Look In Their Eyes
By SAM DAWSON
NEW YORK. CP) Retailers
are swarming into town. 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.
The variety merchandise fair
from the hospital Wednesday eve
ning, is staying at the L. L. Chit
wood home for a few days. She
recently underwent an operation.
Mr. and Mra. Chas. Cring have
traded their farm here for a home

may mean the chaina are planning
to widen their operations still
further. Prices are about the same

Furniture seiea up
The Federal .Reserve bank of
New York re orts furniture store
sales in this area gained 5 per cent
in January over a year ago.
General Electric Co. "a general

At the first national convention
of the Music Operators of America,

proprietors see more and better

tired of having people just putting

They want the treasury to put out

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.)

At the same time, he asserted
the union can provide for pay
increases, equalization of pay, a

Gritla declared that "you (the
employes) exist on the whim of
