and that recently there has been unusual activity
on the part of the shoe spies Of competing shoe
manufacturers.
The manufacturers who employ these shoe spies
believe that their shopping activities are not
known to the makers Of DIXIE SHOES. But
DIXIE SHOE manufacturers say they know the
identity Of the concerns who have sent out these
Investigators.
The recent numerous visits Of the shoe spies
are due to the new Spring DIXIE SHOES, which
have tossed q bombshell into the shoe industry.
Competing manufacturers are trying to fnd out
how DIXIE can turn out shoes that show such
careful workmanship in every detail-shoes Of
such high grade materials-and sell them for So.
They have taken apart pair after pair in futile
attempt to discover some revolutionary manufac-
turing method.
DIXIE owners say there's no secret about their
business at all. They tell other manufacturers
what they want to know!
Other manufacturers can give the same kind of
values as DIXIES if they're willing to work on as
small margin as DIXIE does! But other manu-
facturers think too much of their profits to cut
down on them!
