Heppner, Lexlagton, lone James "Jimmie" Woods is Jgpsi Sincerity behind a glad-hand paid its dividends to this man who but recently was selected in a national search by a hard-headed group of Los Angeles bankers and Dusiness men to manage the new Biltmore hotel there - and at $50,000 per year. By OTTO FLOTO. The general managers of our trans continental railroad lines are usually paid in the neighborhood of $50,000 a year. Under their watchful eye is terri tory perhaps thousands of miles in extent, numberless railway stations, large and small, thousands of pieces of rolling stock, tens of thousands of employees. Where the railroad traverses and taps thousands of miles of territory, a large modern hotel covers perhaps ten acres. It rears its head sometimes twenty or thirty stories in the air but it usually is under one roof of some hundreds of feet in measurement. But such is the enormous amount of detail involved in the management of a modern hotel, the owners are often willing to pay as much as the giant railroad to a man who can supervise it guccesafully. In casting about for a man whom ihey deemed would be worth $50,000 a year to them, the owners of the magnificent Biltmore in Los Angeles decided upon James Woods as their man. Fresh from his wonderful suc cesses with other great hotels, Mr. . oods "Jimmie as he is familiarly known to thousands upon thouaands of the traveling public has gone to 'he Biltmore as its general manager and his salary is reputed to be $50,000 per annum. From cellar to roof garden, Jimmie Woods watches the daily activities of several hundred employees of this gorgeous stopping place. His capacity for detail may be taxed to the same extent as your railroad executive.

There must be no slip-up or let-down in service from baggage room, lobby or living suites. The good-will of the public is even more important to a hotel than it is to a railroad. It is Jimmie Woods' job to see to all this and for these simple services, hard headed business men are willing to pay him $50,000 each year he con tinues to function . Such has been his success at this difficult game that Jimmie Woods, thould he wish to change his resi dence, can pick his spot in any of the big cities of the country and without doubt, he can write his own ticket on the bookkeepers' blotter. WOOL SHOWS STRENGTH. Wool markets are responding to the strong situation developing in Aus tralia the past week and to the fact that the New Zealand auctions opened a prices slightly higher than antici pated by the trade. The five per cent decline occurring during the first ten days of November has been apparent ly recovered, and if the London saleB scheduled for this week show addi tional strength, October price levels should hold. A review of the season's markets indicates that wool houses as a whole have not profited greatly in the hand ling of domestic wools. Values reced ed from shearing price levels in May to midsummer about two cents per grease pound. The advance during September and October, while given a great deal of publicity, was in real ity only about sufficient to equalize the decline occurring during the pre vious weeks, and brings values back to or very slightly above shearing price levels. With wool houses having on hand from thirty-five to forty per cent of their season's handlings, general un easiness prevailed when the market slowed down the first part of Novem ber. Coast mills seem to be pretty well stocked except for occasional inquiry for small lots of medium and coarse wools. At Boston staple and combing wools for the worsted mills are in fair de mand. Shorter wools used by woolen mills and scoured wools are less ac tive. All mills are practically on a hand to mouth buying basis, and snot wools at Boston continue, as they rave during the past three or four months, to have the call over wools stored in the western territory.
