That millions might wear bette r shoes at lower cost EXGHTEEN YEARS AGO the International Shoe Company came into existence. In common with those who have blazed the trail in other industries, it began its operations on the policy that the prod- uctsof its industry could be made better, yet reach the wearer-at lower cost. ‘TodayInternational leads itsindustry. In the interest of better shoes, it has invested millions of dollars and mobil- ized an army of men. These have been sent into every corner of the shoe and: leather industry to develop and origi- nate new standards and methods by which shoes can be bettered under con- ditions that, at the same time, will lower the price to the wearer. Go into the hide markets of the world and you meet International buy- ers selecting the millions of hidesits tan- neries require. Enter these tanneries and you stand with men who are devot- ing lifetimes to further development of advanced tanning processes to make leather wear longer and look better. Cross the thresholds of its leather-work- ing plants and you see skillful hands sorting, accepting, rejecting—guided toward constantly higher quality by im- proved standards and finer methods of grading. i ‘This conquest of quality is the epic of the industry. From it has come Inter- national’s traditional stand against sub- stitution and its world-known policy of ROBERTS, JOHNSON & RAND STLOUIS “all leather” construction—a policy that provides leather whereverleathershould be in every shoe from its highest-priced pair to its lowest. Within its great chain of 43 specialty shoe plants, these better materials meet more efficient and more economical methods of manufacture. Each plant produces just one grade of men’s, wom- en’s or children’s shoes.” Through such specialization it has been possible for this institution to join together the two seeming opposites—nhigher quality and lower prices. TO PROVIDE adequate fac its tremendous production, to as- sure uniformity in its high standards of quality, and to effect the economies that lower the price you pay, the International Shoe Company owns and operates ~ 43 Specialty Shoe Factories, each mak- ing just one particular type and grade of shoe, together producing 50,000,000 pairs a year. 14 Tanneries, each specializing in one Particular type of leather, produc- 1ng 25,000 sides and skins a day. 1 Rubber Heel and Composition Sole Plant, producing 125,000 pairs of heels and 30,000 pairs of soles a day. 1 Cotton Mill, to produce 7,000,000 yards of lining fabric a year. 59 Auxiliary Plants, producing welt- ing, dyes, chemicals, shoe boxes, shipping cartons, trunks, gloves, etc., to the value of more than $30,000,000 a year if purchased from outside sources. PETERS ST.LOUIS _FRIEDMAN-SHELBY ST.LOUILS Significant as all these developments are, International’s interest in better shoes at a lower price has reached out still further inta related industries to eliminate an imposing array of costs from the final price required to purchase quality. It manufactures its own chemicals, dyes and finishes. It produces its own rubber heels, composition soles and lin- ing fabric. It manufactures its own shoe boxes, shipping cartons and many other marketing supplies, All this for the pur- pose of bringing to its shoes basic econ- omies of self-production so that new relationship might be created between quality and its cost. Fifty million pairs of shoes come from its plants each year. One pair out of every seven produced by the entire in- dustry are International shoes. The equivalent of two pairs for each home in the nation are purchased each year by the consuming public.
