This weekly service as carried in Variety is one of the many func- tions of the Department of Com- merce. Consular agents through-' out the World report these oppor- tunities for foreign trade to the department. Tats service has brought much* new business to amusements. It has opened up un- known and little to be expected markets, Sales of motion' picture machines, films, amusement park devices, toy balloons, and numerous other articles have beea recorded here at the department. Much of this business is traced to Variety and to "Clipper" (when the service was published in that paper). Officials at the department are much grati fled With the results, they stating that articles as enumerated above were the hardest to handle until the past fev months. The department has established throughout the country many branch offices for the handling of replies to these "wants."

The deficit -on the Odensburg Fair Is reported between 32,000 and $2,500. Attendance fell away down, and heavy rains further dented the gate. , Not the least of the opposition to good business was competition from other fairs, similarly dated. justed.' The picture operators (165) also signed up. " Other Settlements Among other stage labor settle- ments were In Poughkeepsle, N. Y. where an agreement was reached Sunday night. With stagehands' local (499) coming to an agreement with the managers, that resulted in the whole fight there being adjusted, as It was "mixed local" controversy. Assistant President Lang of the In- ternational Alliance went to Pough- keepsle Sunday and helped straighten out the differences. There la trouble in Yonkers between musicians and managers, with a settlement ex- pected momentarily. ', Philadelphia The stagehands in Philadelphia, local 10. have settled their differ- ences with managers, with the musi- cians In conference and expected any moment to. reach an amicable ad- justment ovef new.contracts. Utica The union musicians and the- atrlaal managers have settled the local controversy over a new scale by accepting a compromise, with the musicians and orchestra- leaders to receive a $2 weekly Increase. In Utica the new contrast will in- crease the average pay of musicians from 338 to $40 and from $63 to $55 tor leaden after a six-day week, while the musicians will receive $4$ for a seven-day week and lead- ers 363. • Gouverneur, N. Y., Sept. 2. Receipts of the Gouverneur fair for this year vere $7,567.70. The officers consider this a .good show ing, considering the fact that the Show had day and date opposition by the Ogdensburg fair, and in ad- dition lost juie day through bad weather. The receipts for last year were $7,987.40. The best year the fair has had since the war was In 1931, when the receipts amounted to $9,778.25. The next best year was in 1923, $8,639. In 1919, $8,401.16, and 1920, $*,370>6S. The fair runs four days. STRIKE SEHLEMENTS (Continued from page 8) under former policies pending the settlement with the stage employes.
