Critic ism of the 'methods, omployod In the .export lumber v trade of tho United States are contained In a report made public today by the Bureau of Foreign and Domostlc j ACQUIRING A I PERFECT FIGURE Most women who have perfect figures did not have them orig inally. They have acquired them. A woman gradually takes the '.. shape of her corset so the corset produced by the most artistic designer is the right one to wear ; to secure a perfect figure. " Fr-orxt Laced j are most symmetrically and ar tistically designed.' They are I comfortable, stylish and grad , uully mold the figure into those beautiful lines that every wo- man admires and desires. PAULINE LEDERLE merce. .! i v. 'Probably the worst complaints itiado against Amoricau lumbor," r.uys the report, "hare beea In re gard' to qualities anl have been due largely to - hurrlod or other wise inafflclont grading or to the lack of adequate grading rules re cognised by ' both parties to the contract." . . Comparatively few mills of this country have specialized In cutting for export trade or have endeavored to market their product abroad themselves. Lack of knowledge of conditions In foreign countries has made- direct selling too difficult and expensive fcr firms that wore selling lumber for consumption In foreign countries mainly to get rid cf their surplus stock. When the war Is over the subject ot export trade - will bo a much livelier one to the lumber Indus try than It aver has' been boforo, and the constructive criticisms in the- Government's report are aimed solely to assist In the necessary preparation for meeting conditions ns they 'iwill exist when the do- mand for reconstruction materials makes Itself folt. Some ot the fu ture competition will come from countries that have specialized In foreign trade for many years. The -report describes In detail the present rather haphazard system ot exporting lumber, points out 1U shortcomings, and makes practical suggestions as to methods of dev eloping the trade.
