the public's confidence in
our method of doing bust

Not once did we argue.
"Oh we'll, we've got to have

we can, standard 60 hang"
True, our foreign connec-

especially when the Gov

That means, were we
now to try and duplicate,

the quality of the cloth.
Innings, trimmings, MAX
ing, etc, we'd have to get
from SIS to 500, figuring
the lowest possible percent
age, commensurate with a
legitimate profit.
Frankly, it's been a job
to keep pace with the de-
mand. Reductions in the
ordinary course of business
are simply made to clear
out the stragglers. There
are mighty few.
