According to statements at the

and has fled no bond of $1,000, nor
made application for such license.
According to the statutes retail mer-

Competition
Warden z. ]. Fogarty of the State
prison, declares he receives an
average price of $3.50 per dozens for
The shirts. They are placed on the
market. however. by the Reliable
company at from 81 to $3.50 per
dozen, while dealers with outside
labor must sell at approximately SO
per dozen to show a profit
The Reliable company also buys
garments from prisons in Alabama,
Connecticut. Idaho, Kentucky, Okla

They sell work shirts, boys blouses
and athletic underwear.
The shirts made at the Michigan
City prison, it must be said, are of
fine workmanship, as good as made
in any factory, and the factory is a
model of cleanliness, as are all build
ings at the State prison.
