LONDON. April 1l.-CA. P.)-
First signs of spring in England have
spurred the transportation companies

Your
GREATEST
SAFETY
IN BUYING

While business readjustment
and declining prices have their
ultimate advantages to the pub
lie in lower prices and more sta
BILE conditions, there are still pos
sible dangers worth needing.
Right now price" is the big
consideration.
Jobbers, merchants and the
public are buying their equire-
ments primarily on the price ba-
sis.
A declining market always
brings price to the front and
makes it the foremost considera-
tion in business transactions.
The fact that prices are the
overwhelmingly consideration
naturally influences manufactur,
ers as well. The price consider
. alton reflects back to them to
such an extent that they are com
PEELED. In order to do business, to
cut their costs to the bone, reduce
their profits to minimum and to
effect economies wherever pos
sible.
This is a good thing If it is not
overdone.
But the trouble is that It is and
will continue for while to be
greatly oyerdone.
Manufacturers who make pro-
ducts not intended to be adver-
tised over their own name or sold
over the guarantee of most
reputable merchant can skimp in
the making of their wares and
cut costs below what they should
be and get away with it. The result.
even though it might not be i'm
mediately noticeable In the pro-
duct is a decided lowering Of
quality.
Quality is sacrificed in order to
meet the demand for extremely
low prices
Such merchandise, that does
not bear q, manufacturers own
trade name or reliable 'mer-
chants guarantee, is very likely
in these times to. be of far lower
quality than is the case when
times are normal
That sort of manufacturing can
get by with it because he does

public for his product
He makes goods that do not bear
his name and therefore the pub
lie cannot blame him, II, after
they have purchased, they find
the goods OF inferior quality.
On the other hand. n manufac-
turcr or merchant who brands
his goods with his own trade name
aud who has been and is adver-

To do so would be suicide.
II any manufactures Of a we'll

boomerang. Instead OF having

years to overcome what might be
done in six months.
Therefore, 1t is to your Inter-
