BHNSALES IH LUTEO Heavy Holiday Buying Appears to Be Clearing Shelves. Bu KEA Servire NEW YORK, Dee. 19.—The consumer who is waiting for thè usuai aftf-r holiday sales to fili his needs. In hope that he will benefit by bargain prices, may bo disappointed this year. From thè present Outlook thè sales following thè holiday may not bo as generai this year as in other years and thè price cuts that are made will not be so radicai. Two reasons are assigned for this prosperi: The holida trade is comlng up to expectations and In many casca exceedlng them. Merchants bought very dose to their needs and tho present good trade will just about clean their shelves. Also thè goods merchants have generally purchased at lower lirico levels than now prevali so they wlil n tobo eager to move them at a dosa prosit, because they will only have to repurchase at advanced prices. Further evidence of thè character of thè holiday trado ls sound in thè cuirent reviews of thè leading trado agendes which gather their material from varlous citles. Boston reports Christmas trade up to expectations, with thè elothing business active, despiet higher prices. Philadelphla rePOits retai! sales very satisfactory. Pittsburgh says thè holiday trade is of good proportions. St. Louis reports a better outtum of shoppers than a year ago and Richmond notes quickened aetivity in holiday lines. Authorities generally agree that slightly higher prices are due, and in some quarters talk of a "buyers’ strike" stili brings fear. There la no evidence to support such a fear. Furthermore, a buyers' strike would be effective only in case of a current overproduction. At preaent, with stocks of ali goods low, thè buying by retailers to fili up empty shelves would sustaln trade for some time.

Would UnifyAll Signal Systems Plans for unifying tho cali Systems of tho world are being discussed by amateur organization of th© chief countries. This movement is tho result of an effort to clear up thè existlng confusion when one amateur calls another. At present, four different interpretationa may he placed on a cali between amateurs in America. With thè advent of transatlantic amateur communication, this confusion is looked upon with greater concern. For this reason, British, French and American amateur societies have been trying to dovi se a cali System that would include amateurs of all countries with no chance of misinterpretation. Many plana have been offe red. Suggested System One, out of which thè final System may come, is suggested by thè French amateur society and elaborateti by thè officiala of thè American Radio Relay League. This is thè pian by which an amateur in one country ealling one in another country would replace tne lettera “de,” as they are used now between his cali and that of thè amateur called, with thè initial of his country and that of thè other country concerned. For example, 2AVB in thè United States is ealling BDW in Frane©. He would sign his cali: “BDW fu 2AVB.” Thus only one correct interpretation could be placed on this cali and no confusion would result. At thè sanie time. every amateur would retain his present cali, neeessitating no expense or trouble in changing thè system. All that would be needed, say oftìcials of thè A. R. R. L., would be consent of thè various governments to thè change, as thè use of “de” between calls is prescribed in international law. GRAPES CAUSE ARREST Frank Casile, 36, salesman at a stand in thè city market, was arrested today on a warrant signed by Mrs. Myrtle Lefeber, 49 Meridian Apartments. The warrant charged Casile scld Mr3. Lefc-ber for use as food 30 cents worth of grapes “which were unftt for human consum.jtion.”
