After all, it makes little difference how many suits of clothes are manufactured, if a fellow can't find them in the stores. Men's suits will be more plentiful than in 1939 —but they'll be more difficult to find. The reason? Because, while production has gone up by 4,000,000 suits, demand had increased by almost 8,000,000. In other words, there still will be something like 4,000,000 men who are looking for suits they can’t find. The same situation exists in scores of other items. More people are buy more types of mer- chandise today than ever before which sufficed a few years ago, leave shortages today.
