There Are More People Talking About This Wanamaker
20PerCentDeductionMovementThan About
The Significant Action of th
National Association
of Manufacturers
af its annual meeting at the Waldorf-Astoria,
New York, representing 5400 manufacturers,
employing 6,000,000 people, is one of the
outstanding developments in the, nation-wide
movement to lower the cost of living and put the
country on a peace-time footing. The resolution
that they adopted i3 as follows: .
"Whereas, The cost of living has steadily
advanced durihg the past year, be it
"Resolved, That ive arc in hearty accord
with all sensible efforts to reduce jfrices of com
modities, and to that end we urge our members
to co-operate in all reasonable efforts to bring
about that result."
Each day sheds new light and brings new
encouragement to go forward.
It is our belief that there are many thousands
of storekeepers who will stand together firmly
against any further encroachments upon the
purses of their patrons by the' raising of prices.
We have reached the apex and we cannot
even stand upon it.
We must find our way out through a
downward door.
Labor must find the way toput through a
larger production of articles of every kind or we
must put an embargo on American manufactures
leaving the country in -order to stop the cry of
scarcity. , x
We can bring on good times speedily if we
work together for it. -

nearly all other suits that we know of.
