He pointed out the magnitude of the print shop industry in Phoenix, stat ing that the total annual payroll in 5 this city to printers, pressmen and allied craftsmen is more than half a million dollars.
 If Phoenix business houses would adhere strictly to the 'patronize home industry slogan" he declared, this pay roll would be doubled over night. In this connection he emphasized the fact that merchants would be build ing their own business as well as the printing business by patronizing home shops.
 Local printing shops are equipped to do just as good work at prices equally as low as those outside of the city or state, he said, provided, of course, orders placed here are equal in quantity and quality to those placed elsewhere.
