No one wants to wear a suit that is conspicuous because of its glaring style faults. Not every man in the business can design a stylish suit. It’s an art, not a mechanical process. Good designers are scarce. That's why apparel that has the right style swing is received so cordially by men who know. Everything goes by comparison.

It was explained that the ap- plication of the measure would be similar to that of the Adamson Law to the railroads.
