 James P. Bath was called upon for Q five-minute talk on What can be done to promote cooperation between the manufacturer and the merchantT MT. Bath stated that the one great hurt 'suf- fered by the merchant was in the salary question. The manufacturers are better to offey big pay for work than sthe merchant, and this has had a ten sdeney to cause many good clerks to leave the stores and go into mill work. A gen. seral discussion on the subject followed, various members expressing the opinion 1hat the greatest means Of promoting CO., operation was through the square deal sThe nlanufaetufer should hold the jobber and merchant to their contracts and the manufacturer. in turn should be held to contract Orders made by many mer- chants in the spring of 1920 for the fall trade were made at high prices and when the break came many merchants cancelled Ftheir orders Those who did not. received Enotice from the manufaeturer at the time their goods were delivered that the order kcould be duplicated for 90 per cent. less. This meant that the merchant who had lived up to his contract had lost 70 per cent. on his goods at the time of deIiy- EeFy, and the merchant who had cancelled and bought again on the lower price was able to sell at a much lower figure with out loss to himself. Contracts entered Unto by merchants. .jobbers and manufac. Eturers should be held legal and carried Tout. Only in this manner of square deal. l ing can cooperation be brought about It was stated that the eancelling of or ders at the mills caused the present sit. uation of short time at the mills. Ther, should be some middle ground where thu lsmanufacturef and merchant can meet 1T Harmony, both getting fair return fol tmoney invested. l Members had been instructed to brint some subject suitable for a five-nlnut Idiscussisn. and these were assigned yes tterday.
