VIII Ignore warning.

William A.. Bandler. who resigned as
president OF the Clothing Manufacturers
Association when some of its members
entered into the SETTLEMENT" with the
amalgamated and now leads a body OF
independent open shop manufacturers,
speaking Of the Shiplacoff letter, said
yesterday:
1T is In keeping with all the rest
OF the un-American. Bolshevil< actions
Of the amalgamated leaders. You will
make clothes our way they say, or
not at ALL
Gould anything more egregious be
conceived than this calm, deliberate
warning TO a manufacturer who has
refused TO have any dealings with the
union. Is running an open shop and
making clothes as he sees fit, that IL
he does not forthwith register with
the union all work he may send to con-
tractors will be stopped?
1T Is high time we had some sort
OF a governmental inquiry Into the high
handed methods OF these men who, ap-
parently, seem TO ignore every principle
OF decent Americanism and boldly utter
threats which the authorities seem
equally TO ignore"
The independent manufacturers. IL Is
Understood. will completely disregard
Shiplacon's warning. Any effort 10
carry the "stoppugc" threats into effect
will be met by whatever legal action
can be invoked.

The New Coats
and Suits

Disclose the fact that
this is to be a season of
luxurious simplicity-lux-
urious materials and furs,
but very simple styles. In
fact, the latter might be
termed silhouette fashions.
Another new note: 1t
is to be a season of coats;
not wraps.
And the colors-BLACK
and dark BROWN.
There are charming examples
of these new fashions in coats
at $3.50.
And in new suits at $50
and $165.
All beautifully tailored.
