"Slow Pay" Must Speed Up

Keep your credit good-it will be just exactly what you
make it. The new basis for granting credit is p%romptness of pay
ment. The item of worth is secondary. IF THE CUSTOMER
IS WORTH 4 MILLION DOLLARS BUT IS SLOW PAY,
THAT CUSTOMER IS or LESS VALUE THAN An
OTHER WORTH, NOTHING III PAYS WIEN THE
BILL IS DUE. Slow pay must get into the prompt pay class
or lose standing among Memphis retail merchants. 1t will be
impossible for a slow pay customer to trade with one store one
month, another the next, and then~g go to the third. Because we
have adopted the Merchants Credit ssociation-Publishe of
the Credit Rating Book-as our official reporting bureau. Each
member is in touch with this bureau daily and receives credit
reports which the bureau has compiled from information from
other members.

Of war, however, old forms have been
broken up, not to leave their ruins be-
hind, but to make a place for a new
vital form. After the achievements of
those times the German people can
claim that no right which may guar

withheld from them.
The proposals of the allied govern

If Your Nov. 1st Bills Are More
Than You Can Pay Right Away:

1t is now about the first of the month. You have received
your statement of October accounts. They may amount to more
than you can conveniently pay in full-duo to the fact that when
these bills were contracted Memphis merchants were not demand
ing settlements in full each month. You should make it your
business to see each merchant and make a definite arrangement
for the payment of all these bills at the earliest possible time.
This need not cause any embarrassment or inconvenience. The
credit man will meet you more than half way.

Paid Promptly

Right here we want to take the opportunity to thank you
who have paid promptly in the past. We want you to know that
we prize your accounts. In fact, the new rule can be taken as
an appreciation of your %promptnesS, because now that we face
new conditions we see the injustice of granting credit to those who
do not pay as you do. 1t has been the prompt paying customer
who has helped to finance our various businesses in peace times.
Without you we could not grow.

This Not
a New
Rule

Merely the enforce
ment of the under
standing the mer-
chant had with you
when your account
was opened.
Memphis merchants for
many years when opening
accounts have given the
customer to understand
that a statement would be
rendered on the first of
the month and that pay
mcnt would be expected
promptly-that is, be-
tween the 1st and 10Th of
the month.
We now find it neces-
sary to enforce this rule
strictly, extending special
favors to none.
This, of course, does
not apply to written con-
tracts, instaIImcnt ac-
counts, or any accounts
for which special arrange
ments are made at time of
purchase.
