SO
so
While we see absolutely nothing
in the wholesale market to justify a
permanent drop in clothing prices
we want you to know that should
such a thing happen you will be the
first to receive the benefits of it
so far as we are concerned.
Good apparel is from 10 per cent to 25 per cent
higher on the Fall Market and there is no
signs of an over-production.
There is already an over-production on cheap
apparel which is cheap in value only.
