Dear Editor:
Dear Editor:


In the hope that reading of the
following incident may help some
of your readers who might be SINH
larly placed, and to let Baltimore
ans know what tie Fair Price
Commissioner, Mr.. Bienemann, is
doing for our interest, l beg a little
of your valuable space. A short
time ago a lady bought suit for
her daughter from one of the local
stores. After having worn same
about four times, there appeared
a number of holes in the goods. To
Maryland suffrage news., 1920-04-17

her protest the manager of the
store answered that he could only
have it mended, and carried his in
difference to the point of being
rude.
The lady then placed the matter
before the Fair Price Commits
sioner, Mr.. Bienemann, who had
the matter adjusted most satisfac-
torily in "a hours. Mr.. Bienemann
called his committee to examine the
suit, and they reported it as their
opinion that the goods were moth
eaten before made up. The man
ager when told of this still refused
to adjust the matter. The Com
missioner called the main office of
the store in question by long dis
tance, who directed that the suit
be replaced by another one, which
was done The courtesy and aid
given by Mr.. Bienemann in tE.is
matter is highly conmendable, and
if more women were to assist in
the effort to combat these unjust
methods, there would be more re-
suits shown to decrease the high
cost of living.
Yours sincerely,
