cept the decoration of "offlcler de
I'lnatructlon publlque” from the French

financial world abroad, especially In
France and the Netherlands, wns all
on a keen,edge over the present
financial outlook In the United States.
"While the majority of the big
Frsnbb and Dutch financiers are con
fident that matters financially In this
country will ultimately and shortly ad
just themselves," he said, "they are
somewhat alarmed over the conditions
at present. This Is especially true of
Holland. .Many holders have lost con
fidence In nn Immediate pull-up of
stock and have sacrificed their hold
ings at far below the purchase price.
The French people seem to under
stand the situation better perhaps
than do those of other countries.”

ALL COTTON GOODS
ABE GIG HIGHER
Mr. Einstein Talks of Ad
vance in Men’s Wear For
Fall Season.
"Cotton’s going up, and going up
fast,” said Slme Einstein Thursday
morning. Mr. Einstein Is manager of
the Globe Clothing Company, and has
just returned Trom a trip to Cincinnati
nnd New York. He was talking, not of
the fleecy white staple sold by Geor
gia farmers, but of the cotton cloths
made Into shirts and other things.
"The average advance Is' at least 20
per cent,” said Mr. Einstein, “and
there’s little Indication of a reduction.
Shirts, underwear and all cotton goods
will be higher this season.
"You ought to see the fall styles In
clothing. Men will have a chance to
show their taste In colors this year.
The weaver* are giving them the pret
tiest shades I ever saw, with browns
predominating. Tjiere’s a new cud
too. Long rolled collars with wide
lapels, showing the top of the vest
nnd a bit of the shirt are the new
modes. There’s a concavo curve In
the bock and they are about the same
length as last year, and fuller than 1
ever saw. The new overcoats are
lighter In color than ever before. The
now styles will be something Very dif
ferent from the past.”
