Increases of From 20 to 30 Per Cent Reported and Better Collections Credited to Prohibition. TIE furniture business, along with all other lines of retail trade, has increased In Portland since the first of the year. Not only are the sales much heavier, but collections are bet ter. Increasing payrolls, due to the new shipbuilding industry and the re vival of the lumber business, are held responsible for much of the new busi ness. Prohibition is accedited with the Im provement in collections. Following are some testimonials that speak for themselves: Fred Jenning, of Henry Jenning: & Sons: "We are doing fully 20 per cent more business now than we did a year ago. September, 1916, was much better than September. 1915. This situation Is all the more signifi cant when It is remembered that last year we were operating two stores one at Second and Morrison and the other at Fiffh and Washington. This year we nave only our Fifth and Wash ington store. In other words, we are doing more business in our one store this year than we did in both stores last year. Prohibition has helped our sales and Improved our collections." T. H. Edwards; Edwards Company. Furniture: "My business has increased 22 per cent over the same period of last year. The outlook is promising." J. G. Mack, J. G. Mack & Co.. Furni ture: "September shows a decided im provement. When the election is out of the way, I look for still better results." Ira Powers. Powers Furniture Com pany: "Our books show an Increase of 30 per cent. Collections are much bet ter and conditions are steadily improving." William Gadsby, William Gadsby St Sons: "I am pleased to report an In crease for the present year of about 2o per cent. When the war ends and ships are released to carry away the lumber, I look for a period of great prosperity that will last several years.

We. the undersigned, wish to thank the many friends of Mrs. Worick for their kind assistance and for the floral oienngs as tokens of sympathy. J. WORICK. MRS. FRANK ELEY. Adv. MB. AND MJiS. iiAIiL SAVAG manager of Association Men. the offi cial organ of the international Y. M. C. A., who arrived in Portland yester day on his tour of the associations of the country in the Interests of his magazine, makes these predictions. On his way he is addressing advertising clubs and business men generally on the trade opportunities that are of fered by the demands of hundreds of millions, of people to whom products other than native are now largely un known. " "America Has Much to Learn." Before a meeting of Portland Y. M. C. A. secretaries yesterday he pointed out the value of his publication as a means of cementing the membership to the association, and advocated a campaign of education on what the Y. M. C. A. Is achieving in all parts of the world. He will address the Ad Club today. "In the task of rebuilding the world America will, of necessity, take a large share, financially," he says. "But America must learn how to create, develop and finance her foreign trade. We have hitherto been penny wise and pound foolish in this respect, and have much to learn, especially in regard to the exploded idea that "What is good enough for us is good enough for the foreigner.' The foreigner wants what he wants as he wants it, not as we think he ought to want it, either as to quality or make up." Small Profit Only Permitted. Exportation of beet sugar from Ore gon and shipment of products from factories and mills are urged by Mr. Wllson-Lawrenson after years spent in service in the Far East. He points out that British India alone imports $40,000,000 worth of sugar annually in spite of a production of 2.500,000 tons. Cotton importations now amount to $220,000,000 a year, a large share of which might be sent from the United States. In developing this trade he points out that the Pacific Coast business man must make his margin of profit small and lower the quality of his goods to meet the demands of 300, 000.000 people, most of whom are lim ited to the bare necessities of life. South America Is 11 men It Field. Eastern factories will come to the Pacific Coast as soon as an effort is made to develop the foreign trade. h says. Some of them are even now planning for extensions in this direc tion. With the expansion of business to the Orient will come increased pay rolls lor Portland, Because of more factories. Increased demand for neces sities and, consequently, more pros perity, he points out. While there are opportunities In South America. Mr. Wilson-Lawrenson believes that invasion of that field will be a difficult undertaking for the American business man because of for eign interests already established, and points -out- the almost untouched com mercial resources that the Far East holds for an aggressive exporter.
