Show PAGE SIX SECTION TWO Maritime Strike Checks Recovery On West Coast Business recovery, continuing in other parts of the United States, was checked in November in the twelfth federal reserve district a report of the Federal Reserve bank at San Francisco, just released, re-leased, shows. The maritime strike proved the greatest contributing factor. Direct effects were felt principally prin-cipally by agricultural and industrial indus-trial producers whose products are normally marketed by water, ana industries depending on water-shipped water-shipped raw material supply. Industrial employment in the three Pacific coast states decreased decreas-ed one per cent and payrolls two per cent betweeen mid-Octobei and mid-November, but this had little effect on retail purchases it is stated. Department store sales increased by the customary seasonal amount and the bank's seasonally adjusted index of retail re-tail furniture sales increased five per cent. Agricultural conditions in the area are still unsatisfactory, the report states, with warm dry November Nov-ember weather interfering with soil preparation for winter-sown crops and delayed germination of those already planted. Marketing condition were also unfavorable ANNUAL SLIP COVER OFFER Exceptionally Low Prices if ordered during Jan. or Feb.

In the face ofv national decrease in the crop, the bean growers with a record crop are in fine position. A sharp advance in barley bar-ley prices is evident the report shows. Shortages of rainfall and consequent conse-quent lack of forage on ranges indicate that supplemental feeding of livestock will be heavier than usual this winter. Feed prices have advanced. The number of cattle in feedlots is 16 per cent larger than a year ago partly because be-cause of continued poor range conditions. con-ditions. Large increases are reported from all three of the lamb feeding states of Utah, Idaho and California. Cali-fornia. The number-of lambs in twelfth district feedlots is about 80 per cent larger than in either of the last two months. Department Depart-ment of agriculture reports state that thp most imnnrtant fartni causing the increase in feeding ofl lambs has been slow demand with consequent declines in prices. Even in the face of seasonal decrease, the loss in industrial outputs is reported as more than usual. Curtailment of industrial output in November occurred principally prin-cipally in the production of Doug las fir. lumber and flour. Rela- j tively small industries also losmg ground were soap, vegetable oil, chemical, an refined cane .sugar-industries. .sugar-industries. The more than seasonal decline in industrial output in November was not accompanied by a correspondingly corres-pondingly laige reduction in mid-November mid-November in total industrial em ployment and pay rolls In the three Pacific Coast states. Value of publio works in construction con-struction started declined 42 per cent, largely as a result of decreases de-creases in awards for public buildings build-ings and streets and roads. In trade, department stores increased in-creased sales by the seasonal amount during November and registrations reg-istrations of new autos increased considerably the bank states.. Sales of wholesalers declined by more than the usual seasonal amount. Reductions in income of maritime mari-time workers caused by the strike appear to have had some depressing depress-ing effects upon trade at certain stores, but during November that influence was offset by such factors fac-tors as the opening of the new San Francisco bridge, declarations of extra dividend and wage payments, pay-ments, and a general tendency for inustrial activity to expand. In the Pacific Northwest considerable con-siderable expansion in sales was reported, while in Salt Lake City and Southern California small reductions re-ductions took place it is said. "It will be seen that industrial output as well as trade in the i Twelfth district is promptly affected af-fected by an event such as cessation ces-sation of water-borne commerce," the bank states in its review. Master Pointers Parisian Expert Finds Men Good At Dress Picking NEW YORK ( American Wire) "Women should take a man along whenever they go shopping, because men love simplicity, and that type of clothing is smartest," advises Elsa Sehiaparelli, Parisian designer, who is visiting in this country. "I believe in quality rather than quantitv," she adds. "The fewer clothes the better, as long as those are of good quality."

Zion Sees Worst Storm in History ZION NATIONAL PARK The heaviest snow storm ever known in the history of Zion National Na-tional park was .-till in progress prog-ress here on January (j, when a total of 50 incb.es had fallen since December 27. This measurement was taken at the east entrance, on the Mt Carmel road. Comparable records have come from other ?t.a-tion.s; ?t.a-tion.s; three4 and one-half feet at the Temple of Sinawava, in Zion can von; and 20 inches at the south1 c .'ltrance, near Spiingdale.

Park officials are using us-ing every means in their power to keep the Mt.

Motorists are warned not to attempt the Mt. Carmel road, nar the upper Canyon road without chains. The few motorists who have braved the storm report that Zion canyon is a unique and beautiful spectacle in its deep mattle of snow, which in many places clings to almost vertical walls, and forms odd patterns against the cliffs. Opportunities for unusual photographic photo-graphic work have been rare, however, how-ever, due to low hanging clouds. Park rangers fortunate enough to be equipped for skiiug have opened up several small ski runs at the base of the Great White Throne, and report that the snow s deep enough to provide winter sports in the park for some time. Longer ski and toboggan runs are being planned in the region around the east entrance. Contrast to this pleasant picture of holiday sports is the gum business of making ski patrols to Cedar Breaks. Rangers Rang-ers attempted the usual monthly patrol on January 5. only to be turned bacq by powdery snow and deep drifts. No farther patrols will be made until the end of the moriTh, when it is hoped conditions condi-tions will have improved. IPssiiaiIl!
