12. TITE MOTINTNG OTIEGOSIAX, FRIDAY, JUNE 4, 1020 DECLINE OF PRICES PREDICTED WAY Leon Hirsch Says Conditions Indicate Drop. ORDERS BEING CANCELED Manufacturers Declared Trying rrcicnt Vail but Not Ukely to Achieve Purpose. to The pinnaole has bepn reached In iprn-'os of textiles and other manufac tured poods and there is sroing to be decline all alonpr the line, in the opinion of Leon Hirsch, secretary of the Meier & frank Co., who has just returned from a six weeks' visit to principal eastern centers. It was a leisurely journey that Mr. Hirsch made, in which he met and talked with many manufacturers, especially in the textiles, conferred with job- tiers and drew his own conclusions from the conditions that ho found pre vailing in the manufacturing: districts. The- chief factor in high prices, he Kvers, is the excessive profits that the manufacturer has been taking-, and a decreased market demand is bound to force prices to lower levels. Manufacturers Are Blnmrd. "Investigations made on my trip hue convinced me that the manufac turers have been responsible in a large measure for the high prices the con sumers have had to pay, said Mr. Hirsch. "The retail merchant has been the goat in the public eye and as a rule his profits have not been on a high basis. As is well known labor is not as erricient ss it was netore the war and is paid higlier wages, but every time an advance in wages took place the manufacturer has taken ad vantage of the fact to increase his charges out of all proportion to the higher cost of production. They are still endeavoring to hold prices up, hut the large number of cancellations of orders that have been coming from dealers throughout the country have brought a change in the situation that, in my opinion, must certainly mean reductions. "Because of the tightening of cred its, merchants are buying more con servatively, and many of them are ex ercising greater caution because they realize that a fall is due. There has been a decline irk silk goods recently, a reflection of the drop that has taken place in Japan. The case disclosed of the abnormal profits made by the manufacturers of woolens is but an example of what lias occurred in the cotton textiles and I am satisfied that the same thing is true of leather prod ucts and in other lines. Undoubtedly many cancellations of orders have followed the indictment of the presi dent of the American Woolen company for profiteering, for it is interpreted by merchants as meaning that lower prices will certainly follow on this class of products. I. arise .Jobber Overloaded. The tremendous reductions in silks no in part due to the large jobbers being overloaded and being forced to offer inducements in the present de creased demand to move stocks. Retail trade is very poor in the east and the wholesale trade is experiencing trouble because of the congestion in railroad traffic movement. "l'ortland is on the map of a lot of eastern people for their summer trip this year for the first time. I found that there was a lively interest In Portland by Shriners in the cities I visited and that their trip to the con vention this month will prove of in estimable value in advertising Oregon and the Pacific northwest. Personally, I came in contact with a number who will be here during the convention and some are planning to spend con siderable time on the coast, making It their summer vacation period."

Peashak Alleges Husband Cruel; Spouse Charges Extravagant Habits. How could a dutiful wife explain the receipt of very endearing letters from "somewhere in France," signed "Curly," to the satisfaction of a di vorce court? Mrs. Ruby Florence Peashak made the attempt before Circuit Judge Stapleton yesterday afternoon and the success of her effort may become known when the judge hands down his decision in the divorce suit today. "Curly" was an old sweetheart who expected to marry her upon his return from the battlefields, she ex plained, and she did not have the heart to tell him she had married another in his absence and thus spoil the fighting morale of one of Uncle Sam's doughboys. Hence the passionate mis sives introduced in court as "Ex hibit A." "Curly" Ruell was the full name of the soldier sweetheart, confessed Mrs. Peashak, who appeared to be sorry she had not waited for him, being the plaintiff in the divorce suit. Leo B. Peashak had been cruel to her in numerous ways, asserted Mrs. Peashak in the course of her testi mony. Several women testified to her excellent ability as a housekeeper and cook. In carrying out cross-accusa tions. Paeshak, who is an "outlaw" switchman still on strike, produced several witnesses to testify to the ex travagance and alleged unfaithfulness of his wife. Insurance Wanted Snjm Sister. "Every night she would wish her husband would be killed by a switch engine so that she could get his in surance, testified a sister of Peashak, whose accusations against the wife tumbled rapidly from nervous lips. Many times when I would be with her in the evening when her husband was at work, she would say: Well. he may be killed tonight and I will have his insurance to enjoy, con tinued the sister. She added: "As to my brother treating her well, my hus band doesn t treat me nearly as well as Mrs. Peashak was treated." Though the sister's 'husband. L. Cor bin, was called next, he did not sub stantiate the assertion that he did not treat his wife as well as Peashak treated Mrs. Peashak, but he was very sure that Mrs. Peashak was extremely extravagant. 'She would have oranges and ba nanas on the table out of season, and boughten cakes," he exclaimed, with horrified air. Defendant Is DlaillUMloned. Peashak had an idea when he went into court yesterday that the fact that he just couldn t pay Sou which ne had been ordered by Presiding Circuit Judge McCourt to pay as attorney's fees for his wif 3 s lawyer before pro ceeding with the case, would exempt him. He was in error. The case progressed until Mrs. Pea shak had concluded her testimony and the attorney for Peashak started his cross-examination. , "Hold on, there," said Judge Staple- ton. "You cannot cross-examine that woman until you have complied with the ordftr of Judge McCourt. "But my client has no funds," pro tested the attorney. "He will get funds, or there will be only one side of this case heard ruled the judge. A friend of Peashak drew out checkbook, indorsed a check for $50, and the case went on. CHURCH REQUEST DENIED Court Refuses to Allow Fourth Amended Complant in Suit. The application of the Episcopa board of school trustees for permis sion to file a fourth amended com plaint in its suit against Dr. A. A, Morrison, rector of Trinity parish was denied by Presiding Circuit Judge McCourt yesterday. "Plaintiffs waived their right to pursue the property into which th trust money is said to have gone when they made their election in the firs complaint and must continue in thei demand for a personal accounting the pending suit." commented Judg McCourt. He indicated, however, tha elimination of certain paragraps in the proposed amended complain might make it admissible. In the fourth amended complain the school trustees sought to have all the land in controversy placed under control of the court for an account ing ot property as well as money. 1 he first complaint asked for $35,000. including $25,000 paid for 100 acres of land and $30,000 spent in im provements. offering to return Dr. Morrison the 100 acres. The defense now asserts that there is no hope o returning the 100 acres, as the land has been sold by the Episcopal board to the Salvation Army. Dr. Morrison is accused of manipu Iation, through a corporation in whic he was chief stockholder, of $25,000 of the trust funds of the church such a way that the school board re ceived only 100 acres of a 1616-acr tract bought with the money of th trust fund, the remaining 915 acres going to Dr. Morrison.
