Variety of color Es EEE Lroadway at Ninth New York We Closed the Doors of Our New York and Philadelphia Stores Last Week on what some people derisevely called “a thunderbolt of commerce.”’ v As owners of 20 millions of merchandise, it was quite within our right to do what we desired with our own Propert ‘ ship, banking or manufacturing, one man alone prepared the statement published Monday, May 3rd, 1920, and not ten persons had any idea of it until they read it over his signature on Monday morning, May 3rd. It was a clean cut from existing figure values as they stood in their place for months previous. -It was also the stroke of a bigger hammer than any in the Baldwin-Vauclain Locomotive Works. It struck the same ringing stroke heavily for 60 days against the formidable structure of a million of manufac- turers, speculators and organizers to maintain in the United States war prices almost two years after the end of the war. It was met by the opposition of neighbors, trade jealousiés, monthly and other newspapers supported by certain tradesmen to exploit certain lines of merchandise. ~ What we denominated a Pattiotic Movement to over- throw a besieging enemy of fair trade and reasonable prices and in the interest of public good was ridiculed and mis- represented. We had counted the cost and took the chances and kept on bombarding big prices with powder at our own cosf, and kept it up for two months instead of the two weeks we intended. We not only let our good goods go at one-fifth less than current value, but we put into circulation during the two months : $13,511,000 which we dealt out in new purchases, relieving, to some extent, manufacturers turncd down by their banks in several cities. | ; What Has Been Gained by It? | Much everywhere. 1. A grateful public who bought our merchandise says so. 2. Many merchants besides ourselves have served notice on makers of fabrics, wearing apparel and household wares, silver and glasswares and floor coverings, that no orders will be given at advanced prices. 3. We believe, from messages from all over the United States, that the commercial world agrees and approves of our plan. 4. We have evidence in offers of manufacturers, during the past month, that the desire of the people for lower prices will be met little by little by taking less profit at first hands and by efforts to shave down expenses of storekeeping. It is too large a thing to be done in two months, but by working. together for the common end we can accom- plish what we need. With lower prices, we can sell larger quantities and thereby incregse our orders to the manufacturer. 5. In restoring old prices that were all right with but moderate and right profits, the people who bought of us what they wanted were greatly benefited and nobody was hurt but ourselves. 6. And particularly—quite a lot of our goods that came in during the past three weeks are marked at the lower cost and are very desirable at the prices. With high hopes we start afresh with fresh strength to help to better the start forced upon all storekeepers to aid the people to come into their rights for lower prices.
