The fair sex in tho United States s being guped into purchase of many thousands of articles of wearing ap- parel bearing a fake Paris label, or & label designed to give the impression that Paris “magic” in one way or an- other enters into the making of the garment, according to E. T. Pickard, chief of the textile division of the De- partment of Commerce. Doubtless most of the women who subject themselves to this houx must realize the extent of the trick to which they are willing slaves, but the psychology of the Parisian appeal has put them in a frame of mind under which they enjoy this “fiction” and oven manifest resentment at an ex- posure of the truth, Mr. Plckard adds American models and designs, how ever, are falrly well recedved in most parts of the world. Last year expres and freight shipments of women's dresses, skirts and blouses of cotton, silk and wool to forelgn countries amounted to about $8,000,000, and 1923 is llkely to maintain the same level. These figures, Mr. Pickard points out, are only fractions of the actual total. for many times this valye moved abroad by parcel post. Against these figures the United States {mported about §10,009,000 worth of women's cotton and silk dresses and garments during the last year, but it should be remembered that the import figures are from ac- tual records made from all kinde of shipments, while export figures do t include quantities of garments not declared, Mr. Pickard says.
