Protect Mutual Fashion
Interests.
NJ. ORTIZ HERE TO ACT

Philippe Ortiz Of the French art Arm
Maison Ad. Braun ct Gle. n also the
American representative Of lie Syndicat
de Defence de In Grande Couture
Franchise. returned on the Rochambeau
last Tuesday.
During the summer Of 1914 the lead
ing Paris couturiers formed a syndicate
OF defence at the suggestion OF MIR.
ortiz for the purpose of fighting in
America the counterfeiting OF French
dress labels. Proceedings were begun
against several label manufacturer and
convictions were obtained.
Since the war began there have been
found In France 40 many firms capital
lied and managed by Germans. as In the
dressmaking industry. for instance.
where there are three or four concerns
which were formerly looked o as
leaders In the world Of fashion. that the
Paris couturiers decided to drive out Of
the country not only pro-German oon-
Germs but all other concerns whose bust
ness methods are not in accordance with
the extremely restricted ethics OF French
commerce.
The syndicate has instructed Mr..
Ortiz to endcavor to form among leading
fashion houses In this country an Ameri-
can syndicate which will work In har-
mony with the French organization 80
as to insure the preservation Of the
interests of both elements which are In
common.
Mr.. Ortiz states that the Paris
fashion openings this year were to be
very brilliant. every house OF some inn
p%ortance having lone its utmost to
create new models for the fall and
winter, which would be worthy Of
Paris's reputation.
