Savings Possible, 4 Report Declares New York, Sept. 30.—Annual sav- ings of 40 per cent or about §240,000, 000 could be made in the men's ready made clothing industry, with its year- 'y output of $600,000,000, declared a| report by the American engineering council's committee on elimination of vaste in industry, made public today. The report, based on a national in- vestigation of the industry, asserted ghat management and labor alike were roaponsible for the enormous waste. Seasonal shutdowns. industrial dis- gord, the “sell.then-make’ policy, lack | of standardization of appliances, con- ditions, work conteng and method, and in~Mcient planning, were given as the ehief sources of waste “The most fundamental cause of wuste,” it was added, “Is the tradition- a! fear inspired, order enticing sales policy which expresses itself in wide variety and its attendant make to order basls of manufacture.” What seems to be needed. assert- ©d the committee, is that each manu- facturer limit the number of models/ and clothes styles, bridge the slack | Aeasons by manufacturing for stock. | and adopt vigorous, positive selling | methods, backed up by effective na-| vional advertising. | Excessive variety in styles is large-| L¥ responsible for seasonable employ- | ment, continued the report, adding| that “study of sales statistics indicates that neither the consuming public nor| the dealers really demand such ex.| Censive variety.” | Industrial discord was sald to have | grown chiefly out of recurring sea- #onal employment, although the work- Ars also were sald to retain “vivid Memories of the mere wage pittances they received in their former years of Sweatshop exploitation.” “The result,” said the report, “has Been a rapid unionization of the in- dustry. Since unionization, strikes Bave been relatively Infrequent.

Only a repeal of the law or its up- set in the courts, it was declared can black their plans. Little opposition is expected from the companies involv- ed, as a somewhat similar plan was approved by them several years ago. It was blocked by the city adminis- tration. The commission announced it would begin shortly a serics of public in- quirics at which officials of the com- panies involved would be examined and any persons opposing the plan be given a hearing. Following these hear- igs, the commission will announce its final plan. A five cent fare is assured for at least one year under the tentative plan Thereafter thé rate woulc be regulated automatically by the cost of operation. The lires would be'run by three operating corporations all under a central board of control. One of the corporations would operate the sub- way and elevated lines in Manhattan and the Bronx; one the surface lines in Manhattan and the Bronx and one the subway, elevated and surface lines in Brooklyn The city would acquire ownership of the lines without expenditure by an amoritization program.
