Hi } Hits the BullsEye of Public Approval WASH,, FRIDAY, MAY Rockbottom Price Policy; | H | se TEES A dozen years or so ago two clothing salesmen had a dream. They visioned a great clothing establishment operated on a new principle. Instead of calculating on Aow much they could make on each garment they would sell they figured on how little it could be sold for. That idea crashed up against every tradition of the retail clothing business. Experienced merchants sincerely thought that long profits were essential on fresh stocks with lesser profits on shopworn goods. But—our two clothing salesmen said that was unfair to the customer. Clothes for men and young men, they reasoned, should be sold at rockbottom prices, day in, day out the year round. How Little, NOT How Much 1 | aed Clothes are sold. So the Fahey-Brockman business was born. Adhering to the principle of “How Little” lifted it out of a 2x4 room into the great Upstairs Stores the buying pub- lic know today. There was dynamite in that idea. It blew out “In-Between Tolls” — smashed top-heavy overhead—shattered high prices and made way for common-sense economies in the merchandising of men’s clothes. More than that it hit the Bull's Eye of Public Approval instanter — rolling a tre- mendous volume thru the Fahey- Brockman stores. Pay Cash and Share Our Savings - sands.
