MUSIC SCHOOL FOR VETERANS.
The Knights of Columbus night school in Wash-
ington, D. C, now include courses in brass, reed and
other orchestra instruments. The various courses are
under the direction of competent instructors, some of
whom are nationally known soloists. All ex-service
men interested in music are admitted free to the
classes and a nominal tuition fee is charged those
veterans of the world war. Registrations are very
large and the effect of the new school on musical
merchandise sales is very marked in the national capi-
tal.
T H E RUBBER SUPPLY.
In 1906 Ecuador exported 1,394,000 pounds of
rubber. In 1922 it exported 7,317 pounds. Low
prices of rubber, insufficient to cover cost of gather-
ing and marketing, are given as the causes in a re-
port by Consul General F. W. Goding. A revival in
rubber production, under the stimulus of present
prices, appears to be in progress, however, 8,000
pounds having been exported in the first seven
months of 1923. The export duty on rubber was re-
moved in November, 1921.
W I L L I A M McDOUGALL'S T R I P .
Conn saxophones are among the most popular com-
modities in the music goods stores of Oregon, accord-
ing to William McDougall of the McDougall-Conn Co.,
of Portland, who has just returned from a round of
visits to the trade in the state. A visit from Mr. Mc-
Dougall is always appreciated by the alert musical
merchandise dealers because of his helpfulness in sug-
gesting means to stimulate business locally.

THE NEW LUDW1G PLANT
^More Facilities in Addition to Factory of Ludwig
& Ludwig Advantage to Customers.
The addition to the factory of Ludwig & Ludwig,
1611 Xorth Lincoln street, Chicago, will double the
capacity of the plant besides giving more shipping-
facilities. Offices, stockrooms and more manufac-
turing space will be provided by the new addition.
On the first floor will be new offices, including pri-
vate suites for William 1\ Ludwig, president and F.
E. Larson, sales manager. The second floor will be
devoted to stock room purposes and the third to
manufacturing. The completion of the new addition
will enable the company to concentrate a large part
of Ludwig & Ludwig activities under one roof.
Occupying the new addition will involve the in-
stallation of a number of new automatic and semi-
automatic machines, new tools and equipment that
will provide the clever craftsmen of the company
with the latest and best aids to drum making effi-
ciency. Progrcssiveness will be equally evident in

New York Citj-, N. Y.
A building permit issued last week in Oakland,
Cal., calls for the expenditure of $130,000 on a fac-
tory to be erected here by the Victor Talking Machine

manner in which the advantages of the Eastbay as
a manufacturing center impress the experts who sur-
vey the fields for the large concerns with a view to
establish branch factories.
