Garment Groups Rate.

A style show was put on at n. r. A.

whether women's cotton dresses should
be made under the cotton garment
code or the dress code.
John NJ. Kating, counsel for the
Dress Code Authority, entered his
models wearing dresses made under
both codes and challenged any one to
distinguish. There were no takers.
Heating said garment made under
the dress code costs 25 cents more
because of the higher wage rate, but
that the retail and wholesale prices
were the same. He contended this
constituted unfair competition and
that women's cotton dresses should be
made under the dress code.
