THE PRICE OF SHOES Official Investigation Discloses Interesting Facts New York. April 22.? Recent action by the New York Retail Shoe Deal ers' Association for limitation of pro lit on "standard" footwear, that is shoes selling for $i'0 <>r less a pair ai/d which do not carry a luxury tax. h;;> ereated what might i>e called "a tempest in a shoe slum" all over the United Stales. The tempest was caused by a little item wired from New York on March 21'. to the effect that the federal au thorities had announced they had been -informed by John Slater, presi dent of the local retail dealers* asso ciation. Jiat ?'standard*' shoes would be reduced"during tin- spring ami summer.- It was published in many newspapers and pater and mater familias. .with lots of little fec"? u> be shod, chuckled over the glad, good news at many a supper table. Tie item read: "New York. March 22.?Price of standard shoes will be reduced dur ing the spring and summer. John Slat er, president of the*Retail Shot- Deal ers* Association, announced today, in a communication to Arthur Williams, federal food administrator. Retailers at a recent meeting decided to be con tent with a smaller margin of profit. Mr. Slater said. Reductions, however, will iTot apply to 'all kinds of fancy and ultra-fashionable footwear.' *'The action of the retail shoe deal ers. Mr. "Williams said, probably pre saged the beginning of a general nar rowing of probt margins in. other wearing apparel." One paper in Arkansas carried th/ item, with the "heading: "Here's Hope for the Weary; Says Prices May Come Down." By many it was regarded as the first real move toward a j educ tion in the high cost of living. The next day or so retail shoe store pat rons from coast to coast and from Oshkosh to the Gulf visited their fa voritcdealers to buy the cheaper foot wear. The dealers, many of whom had not had a "marked down" sab since bet?re the war. said they had not heard anything about a decline in prices. The news spread in the trade, how ever, and soon dealers, jobbers am! manufacturers began to bombard Mr. Slater with inquiries as to the basis for his assertion. Aroanwhile. Mr. Slater had been Iterrogated here by] tin- Associated Press regarding the Correctness of the statement attribut-! ed to him and he declined to comment! mi it. Whereupon Mr. Williams, for merly federal; Food Administrator \nd Kair Price Commissioner, was, vis- i Lied, and he confirmed the statement J :ts sent out by the Associate d Press. It became known. however, that I much of the confusion had been cans- \ ?d by the form of the announcement | made from the office of the Fair! Price Commissioner, for instead of a jenera] movement such as was in iicatod by tin- announcement the i ?nly. plan in contemplation was limi-i tat ion of profits in New York City; i ind even that has failed to be put j nto effect. Mr. Williams, however, ?ftood by the statement as carried by :he Associated Press. He said it was! jorrect and he would assume full re-! sopnsibility for it.. Mr. Williams explained that early; this spring the- federal authorities mad" an effort to reach an under standing with New York retailers con cerning the profits on footwear. In his official capacity as Fair Price Commissioner, In- said, he received on March '21 last, a communication from Mr. Slater as {.-resident of the New York Retail Shoe Dealers' Association; containing a proposal for limitation to a maximum of 21 to ':r> per cent of retail profiits on shoes selling 4<\i $10 or less per pair. Mr. Williams said' he referVed the proposal to United States Attorney Caffey. No action on it has been taken by the Department of .Justice. Mr. Williams has since resigned and no successor has been appointed. Meanwhile the retail price of standard shoes in New York remains as high as ever. While c cheaper. He denied he had told this to Mr. Williams, and, said that al though it was true negotiations were under way for limitation of profits he saw no basis for the assertion that prices would come down. A Fort Smith, Ark., merchant who wrote to Mi*. Slater received a reply which aparcntly gave the death blow to iheYexpiring bopes. built upon thy announcement from the Fair Price Commissioner's office. that shoes would be cheaper in New York or anywhere else. Mr. Slater said: "'!-i making my recommendation to Mr. Williams about the maximum profit ;i? be allowed on non-taxable footwear i told him that tie- price of shoes would not come down." Fx plaming his-stand in regard to higher: priced shoes, he said" *"in my arguments with the govern ment i take the stand that the ex.-is. or luxury tax placed on shoes of %\\\ or over-, take them mit of tin neces sa-ry (necessity) class under which too Lever Act operates.
