TRADE MARK is

BEST WEAPON
Adoption of blouse" Label Pro-
tects Against Price-SIashing
Tactics Of Big Rivals.

Atlanta has reason to thank the de-
vice long known to the world as the
trademark.
The distinctive label of the manu-
facturer and the jobber has regained
for the city volumes of trade which 1t
seemed likely powerful rivals would
annex and the label has fastened a
grip on this trade which makes any
serious inroads by other cities in flu
ture extremely improbable.
Dry goods give a conspicuous ex-
ample.
Not many years ago IT was the Gus
tom TO sell cloths with the makers
label. Ducks, calico, percales and
ginghams were sold by the name
given them at the mill. The retailers
and even consumers knew them by
this name.
"Iroquois" flannel. for instance,
might be as well known TO the retail
er and his customers as the best ad-
vertised brand of crackers.
Taking advantage of this state OF
affairs, great houses in New York,
Baltimore, Chicago, Louisville and st.
Louis began to make arrangements
with the mills producing these we'll
known lines. They would buy up the
mills entire output, or three quarters
Of it. Then their travelling statesmen
would invade Atlanta territory, quot
ing "Iroquois" flannel at price below
the figure at which Atlanta Jobbers
themselves could get IT,
The retailer of course. bought. The
big competitors of Atlanta made little
on "IroquoiS" but while selling fan

dealer with laces. novelties and other
lines on which there was a good mar
gin OF profit.
Atlanta jobbers suffered in this way
a little while. Then they armed them
selves with the same weapon and
proceeded to fight.
They discarded the mill name for
the goods and adopted one of their
own. "Iroquois" flannel perhaps was
rechristened "Peachtree" flannel This
label was protected. No mill and no
other jobber than the one adopting it
could use the name "Peachtree."
Obviously, it became impossible for
the New York jobber to undersell the
Albanian on "Peachtree" goods The
Gothamite had to begin the old "just-
as-good" argument. always a weak
line OF selling talk.
'Peachtree' and half cent cheaper. "
is not half SO convincing as Peach
tree flannel, half cent under Atlanta
prices"
So the New York Chicago, Balti-

men began to disappear from the
Southeast. Very few of them are to
be found in this territory now.
In the meantime the atlanta jobbeT
has built up double protection for
himself His customers have learned
to call for his goods, and to demand
them in preference TO others. On the
other hand. II some big dealer IN Chi
cago buys the entire output OF q mill
which has been supplying him with
ginghams, he can go to another mill,
get goods woven under the same
specifications and made Identical In
every respect, affix the same house

In the various groups as we'll as of
the exports of each group to the diff
ferent continents, and percentage
tables from which the relation OF all
can be determined. Furthermore. the
exports to each continent are given
by classes Of articles over a period
of years, and again these classes are
subdivided so that the progress OF
particular Industries in the export
trade appears. For example, II is
shown that the exports Of machinery
from the United States will, in the
present fiscal year. probably exceed
s200.000,000, which compares with
S75,00O.000 a decade earlier.
A table OF particular interest is
that showing manufactures in the in
ternational trade OF the world, from
which il appears that the percen-
tage of increase in the export OF
manufactures from 1900 to 1919 is
greater than in that Of her chief In
dustrial competitors The United
States now ranks third among the
nations in export OF manufactures.

Foreign Trade of Nation
Increases at Rapid Pace

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE lit
tie volume just issued by the Depart
ment Of Commerce entitled "Ameri-
can Manufactures in Foreign Mar
kets," is one that ought to be in the
files Of every chamber OF commerce.
II is the first time in which the
facts respecting sales OF American
manufactures abroad have been put
into such condensed form as to make
the growth Of cur foreign trade clear
~ visible both in totals and in de-
tails and over a long period OF years.
The facts are very wonderful. The
book covers only the period from
1852 TO 1912, but in that time our
sales OF manufactures abroad Of all
kinds have grown from $4,000, 900
yearly TO 81, 300, 900. 900 yearly But even
this misleads a little as to the cor
rect inference to be drawn. for the
figures Just stated include manufac-
tured foodstuffs.
Promise for 1918.
II we leave these out and consider
only manufactured goods other than
foodstuffs the ratio of increase has
been even larger, for the foreign sales
have jumped from $27000,000 in 1852
TO over 100000 in 1912. and
promise to be nearly or quite $780,
O00, 600 in 1918.
While our total exports of man
ufactures, including foodstuffs. have
increased II per cent during the last
10 years. the manufactures other than
foodstuffs have been over 124 per cent.
Strange as It may seem to some, the
greatest increase OF all is in those
manufactures which are fully finished,
which have grown from $4,000, 900
in 1902 to what will probably be over
$3.50 900. 900 for the full year Of 1913,
an increase OF 1873 per cent.

Competing successfully with the
great plants in cities generally re-
puted to be greater manufacturing
centers than Atlanta, the Atlanta
Stove Works is proof that there are
few lines of industry which can not
be acquired on to advantage in the
great distributing center OF the

nickel trimmings, everything which
goes to make a stove is manufac-
tured in Atlanta The factory fur

1T ATLANTA MANUFACTURERS AND JOBBERS ARE DOING
Boiling II. Jones FaUOrs Making
Display SerUe for Sample Rooms

Boiling H. Jones is one of the enthusiasts for the
permanent exhibit of Atlanta made goods
''I want Atlanta to have manufacturers exhibit
in manufacturers building" says Mr.. Jones.
"In my opinion the idea should be developed to
point where we will use ten or twelve-story struc
ture, with plenty of floor space. Then let the manu-
facturers like myself take liberal amount of room
and move all their samples to this building would
make such place my downtown sample room If all
did this the buyer from out Of town could see in three
or four hours 100 different lines of goods.
II have seen the plan worked elsewhere, and it
pays in every way. intend to back the proposition

SENTIMENT IS
MORE STRONGLY
FF0GREXHIB|TION
Confidence Is Expressed That
Manufacturers Will Endorse
Plan at Coming Dinner.

Atlanta manufacturers are ex-
pected, one week from Tuesday,
to give definite answer to the
question:
"Do you want a permanent
exhibit of your products?"
The question will be asked and
the answer given at a dinner to
be held on the night of June "A,
for which it is believed several
hundreds of plates will be taken.
Brooks Morgan will at this
gathering submit several definite
proposals from owners of build
ings. Any of them is attractive,
it is said, and it is only'a ques-
ton of location if the manufac-
turers want the exhibit.
1t is hoped to start with not
less than 10000 or $4,000 square
feet of floor space engaged, and
with not fewer than 100 ex-
hibitOrs.
There is every reason to be
lieve the plan will be adopted
and carried on to successful
elimination.
So much attention has been direct
ed to Chattanooga's experience that
another fine example of the benefits
of a permanent exhibit has been over
looked by many of the men inter-
ested.
New Haven's Experience.
New Haven. Conn, has a perma-
nent display which opened May 10.
1912. 1t occupies a two story build
ing, fronting several hundred feet on
a principal street.
New Haven. by the 1910 census,
had a population Of 133,605, some
thing short of Atlanta's population.
But its manufacturers are progress
sive and alert. They determined that
the expense was as nothing, compar-
ed to the benefits of such a display.
So now, in the home of Eli Whit
ney and Goodyear, there is a show
of seventy odd lines of manufacture,
from rifles Of a famous brand, to
rubber coats from buttons to door
locks.
Proves Commercial Value.
The exhibit was started with view
TO the civic advantages il promised,
the advertisement of New Haven as
a city Of diversified activity. Il has
proved its value commercially, how
ever, and now is regarded as most
valuable adjunct to the work of the
manufacturers.
1t has, they claim, aided greatly in
their sales and in their campaign of
publicity.
A handsome booklet describes the
exhibit and depicts many Of its eX-
hibts. The book is being studied
eagerly by Atlantans interested in the
subject.
