Great Britain are nearing exhaustion,

THE ADVANCE IN COSTS

That we are determined 10 40 our

the public's fight against hlgh prices;
and we believe il to be the interest OF

We are, therefore. opposed 70 the de-
mands for higher wages ana hlgher

SUPPORT the strike. We shall remain at
our Jobs, prepared to serve the puollc
MT our present wages and al present
prices, believing that in this way we
shall perform our public duty as well as
serve our own best interests. ,.
Our position, our wages and the prices
charged in barber shops may have no
great public Importance. But 1t Is OF
Vital Importance, II the public's cam
