CLOTHES MAKERS BLAMED.
Retail Dealers Launch Inquiry on
"Greedy" Garment Makers.

Chicago, Sept. l1.--The retail cloth
iers are out to swat the proflteer.
In closed session at the Hotel Shcr-i
man yesterday afternoon the members
Of the National Retail Clothiers' as
sociation determined that the pres
ent high cost of clothing is caused "hy
the manufacturers greed for heavy
profits BY unanimous vote they
resolved 10 investigate the clothing
makers from whom they buy their
stocks. with the idea of uncovering
profiteers.
Tho resolution they adopted follows:
Whereas. 1t has been openly as
serted that some manufacturers OF
clothing and kindred lines have sold
on future order merchandise at GER
tain agreed prices. and have subse-
quently rcsold and delivered the same
commodities at advanced prices and
refrained from shipping to the original
purchasers; and that such a course
has tendency to increase without
warrant the material price Of clothing,
and thereby to place an additional bur-
den upon tho consumer. therefore.
Resolved, That the association take
cognizance of this practice. and, for
the purpose OF eliminating 1t, the pres
ident Is hereby directed to appoint
special investigating committee of
three. whose duty 1t shall be impartial
ly to Investigate such charges when
specifically made and sustained and
to call upon said manufacturers so
charged to produce their books for the
purpose Of investlgation: that, falling
to do so, they shall come under the ban
OF unfair dealing and be subject 10
such publicity among the members of
the association as the case may war
rant"
The eight hour day also received
blame for the increased cost Of raj
ment.
"A decrease in the price of clothing
said ]. ]. Phoenix. president OF large
knitting firm, "is an impossibility.
wo shall not have an adequate supply
of merchandise for some time to come.
"It all resolves itself around the
question: Can we feed and clothe the
world on an eight hour. day? Europe
says not. Germany has adopted n ten
hour day as the minimum. Unless wo
wish to be left In the lurch we must
increase the working day."
Mr.. Pheonix's observations were
borne out by Arthur M. Refs, presi-
dent OF the National Wholesale Mems
Furnishings association, who backed
up his assertions from tabulated re-
suits OF questionnaires sent to New
York manufacturers, 80 per cent of

Glasgow, Sept. 1.-THE trade union
congress at today's session, after three
hours debate on the subject iof direct
action hy 10 hor to enforce its epolaf'caf
demands, choked off further discus
sion of the subject by adopting the
previous question by small majority.
This definitely precludes the pos
sibility Of the triple alliance Of rail-
way men, transport workers, and min
ers obtaining the desired mandate
from organized labor to precipitate a
national railway and industrial pa
ralysis, IL that were necessary, to ac-
complish its political demands.
