(Special Food bait th of The Eve- ning ‘The level of juste valnes is now lower than for several years, and white butter and eggs were the two last items to decline in favor of the consumers, a decline of fo @ dozen in esa was recorded during the jast week, Tho grade of cars known as Western firsts dropped from 79¢ @ wetk ago to 650 a dozen on Saturday, Wholesalers do not think present prices can be sustained and I look for a further drop next week. The finest creamery butter is now Wholesaling at 50c to 510 a pound, while nearly 2,600,000 pounds were unloaded here last week, with 1fberal imports still afloat, which may result in still lower prices.

Acoorling to Dr. William M. Leiser- son of Rowhester, who for a brief period was “impartial chairman” of the men's clothing industry, the main cause ot the labor troubles in the needle trades here, was the interference of “an outaide laywer and a small group of manufacturers who misled their asso- clates.” At the same time he places'a share of the blame on employces for their failure to improve working condl- tions and who, “after agreeing to main- tain Gxed rates, continued to steal help from one another, and thus created an artifical level." Both the unions and the manufacturers, he charges, were in sincere In their avowed desire to effect a fair settlement. As a remedy Dr. Leiserson recom- menda that the public insist upon a “thorough airing of the facts, the ex- pulsion of agitators, the lawyer and the group who brought on the strike." ‘The lawyer to whom Dr. Lelserson re- fers Is Harry A.
