L. Douglas Shoe Co. of Brockton, Mass. The one idea of this company has always been to sell a shoe for $3.50 which equals in every way the $5 shoes of any other concern, They are able to do this on account of there be- ing no middle man’s profit, as the goods are sold direct from the factory to the wearer. In 60 of the principal cities of the country they have their own retail stores. The goods are made in all sizes and widths, and few shoes equal them for style and durability. The factory at Brockton employs over 1,100 hands, and all labor trou- bles are settled by the state board of arbitration. Nothing but union labor is employed, and pay about the best average wages of any shoe workers in the United States. The factory pay roll amounts to $17,435 per we74.
